Peaceful, off-grid vibes and walks along the Trent Valley Way, yes please… Millview Camping is a completely off-grid site just 20 minutes’ drive from Nottingham city centre and 15 minutes’ walk from the 116-mile Trent Valley Way. With westerly views over the Trent Valley and in the shadows of a ruined 18th-century windmill, this is a peaceful and scenic place to take a break indeed…
Well-positioned too, with a generous handful of pubs, restaurants and cafés a scenic 35 minutes’ walk away in Gunthorpe alongside the river Trent. Radcliffe on Trent and Bingham are five minutes’ drive away for any other amenities you might (supermarkets, shops, restaurants, pubs and the likes). And if you’re after even more of a buzz, Nottingham city centre is 25 minutes’ drive away.
Even with such good access to so many towns and the big city, the site itself is remote. It has 10 acres of hay meadows and woodlands for guests to explore and, of course, sublime sunsets over the valley. If you prefer to keep your whole stay pretty rural, the Vale of Belvoir and the historic Belvoir Castle are 20 minutes’ drive away from the site.
It’s no frills here. The grass and woodland pitches have facilities including water and portaloo access. Dogs are also permitted, as are barbecues.

Escape to the peace and tranquillity of the Northamptonshire countryside in one of our luxury adults-only canalside lodges. Whether you're looking to relax, explore or simply switch off, everything you need is right here.
Each handcrafted lodge features a fully equipped kitchen with an oven, grill, induction hob, fridge/freezer, bean-to-cup coffee machine, cookware & utensils. You'll also enjoy a king-size Emma mattress, wood-burning stove, private bathroom, towels, dressing gowns, slippers and plenty of thoughtful touches to make your stay extra special.
Outside, unwind in your own private wood-fired hot tub, enjoy evenings around the fire pit, cook on the BBQ, or simply relax on the decking or hammock overlooking the canal. All fuel for the hot tub, fire pit and wood burner is provided.
Step onto peaceful canalside walks where nature is never far away. Keep an eye out for red kites, buzzards and kingfishers, and if you're lucky, you may even spot an otter swimming along the canal. Each lodge also has its own private fishing peg on a quiet turning point in the canal, meaning you'll rarely be disturbed by passing boats.
A selection of welcoming country pubs and restaurants are just a short drive away, while the attractive market towns of Rugby & Market Harborough can both be reached in around 20 minutes.

We went in our campervan last year and the camp had about 12 units. We’ve just returned from a few nights there over the weekend and was a little shocked at the sheer numbers on site. Manager said that they were expecting 120 to arrive on the Friday. Bearing in mind that no caravans are allowed, the majority were tents with a lot of children with no shower or toilets. 2 men’s toilets and 3 showers for that amount of people was clearly not enough and so queuing was a bit of an issue.
We left on the Monday as did a lot of the units and it was therefore tranquil again.
I would return but only midweek and out of school holidays.

Lovely area close to beautiful walks in Cannock Chase. Canalside walk is even closer (though not a loop!). The campsite also has a great playground for kids, with ponies and horses in the next fields. Small bar to get drinks too for the adults

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, the land is spacious and varied. The facilities were clean and pleasant (although one of the 2 showers was out of use - didn't cause any difficulty to me on this occasion and hopefully will be fixed soon). I will definitely return. Thankyou Tom.

Loved it at fire and stars! Really beautiful campsite, wonderful for families. Just the right level of wildness and 'no frills', whilst still having good facilities.
Our family loved it. Our 5 year old was in her element. Loooooved camping amongst the trees, a big site to walk around the young woodland too. Thank you so much!

I recently visited Lakeland boats sales looking for my new narrowboat home and was pleasantly surprised to see the campsite across the road, as I’d traveled 3 hrs I thought I’d stay the night and I’m so pleased I did. Canal running through the site, lovely field, couple of portable toilets, yes it’s basic but that’s what I like. Big thank you to Patrick and hipcamp 👍
