A campsite by lake UK, CE

.

Views across the lake, but a shame no waterside sports are allowed here, either on the river or the lake.

Still, one person’s loss, is another’s gain. This is a great site if you just want to take in the peace and quite or go for a stroll.

Fishing is available during the summer months for small day-fee payable to the site owner.

PARTICULARLY popular with anglers who fish the four lakes for carp and pike.

Next to the River Trent, caravans, motor homes and tents are accepted on this 82-acre campsite.

Newark – with its castle, air museum and markets – is just a mile away from the lakes and camping ground. Nearby Sherwood Forest offers good walking and hiking.

Showers, toilets and washing-up facilities. Of the 130 pitches, 100 have electric connections.

This 1.5 acre site in the Thames Valley between Marlow and Bourne End.

Five lakes offer fishing, water-skiing jet-skiing and waterboarding. Activities are arranged for group events.

Three of the lakes are supposed to be well stocked with tench, bream, perch, chub, carp and pike, although I didn’t get a chance to fish.

The fully licensed members’ bar is open seven days a week, with bar snacks available from 9.30 am until 7pm.  London is just 40 minutes away by car.
