Lake Fairfax Campground Rates – What You Pay and How to Save

If you’re planning a motorhome adventure around Nottingham, Lake Fairfax is a common stop. Knowing the exact rates helps you budget and avoid surprises. Below we break down the current fees, seasonal changes and practical tips to keep costs low.

Standard Site Fees

For a standard motorhome pitch (up to 7 metres), the daily rate is £28 during the peak season (June to August) and £22 in the off‑peak months (April, May, September, October). If you bring a caravan instead of a motorhome, add £5 per night.

Electric hook‑up costs £4 per day, and a water point is free for the first two hours – then it’s £1 per extra hour. Most campers find the free water hours enough for a normal stay.

Discounts and Special Offers

Early birds get a 10% discount when you book at least 30 days ahead. Families with children under 12 pay half price for the second site if you need two pitches.

Residents of Nottinghamshire can show a council ID to claim a £2 per night reduction on the base rate. Group bookings of five sites or more also unlock a flat £5 discount per site each night.

Long‑term stays (10 nights or more) automatically receive a 15% cut on the total bill. That’s a big saver if you’re doing a road‑trip loop around the county.

Remember to ask at the reception about any seasonal promotions – the site often runs a weekend “stay 2, pay 1” offer in March.

All rates include access to the on‑site waste disposal point, free Wi‑Fi in the common area, and a basic fire pit reservation. Extras like bike rentals or guided boat tours are billed separately.

To keep your budget tight, consider these simple steps: book early, travel in the shoulder months, and use the free water allowance wisely. Bringing your own refillable water bottles cuts down on extra water fees.

Finally, always double‑check the latest price list on the Lake Fairfax website or call the office before you set off. Rates can shift with local events, and a quick call saves you a surprise at checkout.

With clear numbers and a few savvy moves, you can enjoy Lake Fairfax without breaking the bank. Happy camping!
