View prices & book Last booked 3 hours ago 8 848 reviews

Water- and land-based event centre in 270 acres of parkland
Easy access to Nottingham city centre, rail network and airport
Country walks, nature trails and lots to do for kids

What do you reckon is the main flavour of activities at this Nottinghamshire site? Yup, top of the menu at the Holme Pierrepont Country Park, near Nottingham are all sorts of watersports: you'll be able to tackle a whitewater course for canoeing, kayaking, rafting and tubing; paddleboarding, open-top canoeing and the inflatable assault course Wipe Out. But! This is a land-based activity centre too, so if you don't fancy plunging into the foamy depths or would quite like to stay dry for a day, other options can be tackled at the outdoor adventure zone where there's an aerial adventure course, miniature golf, a mini four-wheel drive course for kids, a kids' activity club and archery combat. A large play park, country walks and nature zones are also on site (please note some activities are subject to availability and must be booked at reception; early booking is advisable). Feeling a bit faint just from reading all this and think you'd rather spectate? The centre has kindly included a country park café and a regatta lake where it hosts its own events like rowing and canoe regattas, dragonboat racing and triathlons. Lots is on offer too to keep the kids amused, including a woodland adventure playground and a nature trail a short stroll away. Although all this energetic excellence is only 10 minutes' drive from Nottingham city centre, it's well into the countryside and away from anything townie, as it's deep in the 270 acres of parkland of Holme Pierrepont Country Park. The campsite part of the park covers 18 acres and has a facilities block with showers and toilets, and a site shop selling selected groceries and camping supplies.

Deluxe Arch 1 bedroom camping pod

Liked: The quietness, last year we came with friends in a tent had a lovely time thought this could be a yearly treat for me n the girls but the last time the facilities and the lack of staff pulse the lack of craps given by anyone, this is far from the experience we wanted

Disliked: No running hot water to take a shower, not remotely bothered not even an apology. For £175 for two nights and no running hot water was a big problem for me. Just received an apology email. 4 days after my stay. Nothing elec. Will not be coming again.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Clean and organised the site itself was. How close to the country park it was.

Disliked: Toilets and showers not very clean only one block of the girls were working.

Was disappointed when we did walk into the country park that not a lot was actually running from what is advertised. For a bank holiday weekend I would have expected more to be running.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: The location was great. The pitches were spacious and well kept. The playground was great to keep the children entertained.

Disliked: The toilet blocks could use a bit of TLC. Although the facilities were fine they weren’t always the cleanest and the water temperature was very temperamental.
The distance from our pitch to the electric hook up was very far. We were told we needed a 25m cable which we had, however even with this it was super tight and only just reached. Defintley take an extension if your on pitch 5 park view

Louise J. Apr 2025

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: The inclusion of the National Watersports Centre over the road (albeit would've liked information on this on arrival and the activities on offer etc) .

Nicely presented site (with the exclusion of the toilet and shower facilities)

Disliked: Check in process - was told to go to a particular site number but it had been taken. Was also informed that there was currently no hot water in the showers and therefore one of the blocks was unavailable.

On using the other shower block, the facilities were outdated, also had to press the shower every 10 seconds

The lights did not work in the toilets and do people were taking torches/ phones in.

No toilet roll in the toilets.

The whole block was very dated which is a shame as the rest of the site looked quite well preserved

No mention at all of the National Watersports Centre at all on arrival despite being mentioned on all site info upon booking. The site map given didn't even reference it despite the site being marketed as 'home of the National Watersports Centre'
