Holme Pierrepont is a small, rural parish in Rushcliffe, Nottinghamshire, England, lying beside the River Trent a few miles south‑east of Nottingham. It is best known for the National Water Sports Centre, whose regatta lake and white‑water course draw rowing, canoe and recreational visitors and give the area a lively sporting reputation against a backdrop of farmland and woodland.
The parish also includes the historic Holme Pierrepont Hall, a timber‑framed manor with long local ties that occasionally opens for events, so history and heritage sit alongside agriculture and a modest leisure‑based economy. Socially it feels like a close‑knit riverside community that benefits from proximity to urban centres while retaining a quiet, countryside character.
