Belmont Pines Lakeside Holiday Park is situated along the beautiful Lake Macquarie in New South Wales. It is one of four resorts within the Lake Macquarie Holiday Park. The resort is in close proximity to Sydney, Newcastle and the Hunter Valley wineries.

Lake Macquarie is the largest salt-water lake in the Southern Hemisphere and is an ideal holiday location for the whole family. Even pets are welcome! The lake offers a wide variety of activities including boating, fishing, swimming and water sports. And best of all, it is only a few minutes away from stunning beaches.

Start the morning off with a brisk walk along the water’s edge; spend the day fishing, kayaking and swimming; and then enjoy an afternoon of relaxing while enjoying the scenic sunset views. Or spend the day meandering through wine estates and award-winning eateries. Whatever your preference is, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!

Belmont Pines is also in close proximity to other recreational facilities such as golf, lawn bowls, squash, tennis, and shopping.

The resort offers a range of air conditioned, self-catering chalets. Or for camping, choose from powered sites, un-powered grass sites or sites with concrete slabs. So whether you have a caravan, camper trailer, tent or motorhome, Belmont Pines has the perfect location for you.

There is an on-site restaurant for the days you don’t feel like cooking. There are also barbeque facilities for those relaxing afternoon lunches.

Exploring the spectacular beaches from Catherine Hill Bay to Dudley is an unforgettable experience. There are various walking trails such as the Fernleigh Track. This is one of the region’s most popular cycling and walking paths. The track caters for all fitness levels and provides an interesting cycle, walk or run along a disused coal haul line, surrounded by lovely natural surroundings.

Watagan Mountain National Park and State Forest covers 7751 ha of extensive mountain range that is a must see for nature lovers. The area has several well defined walking trails to explore the mountains, the creeks, and the lookouts that have stunning views across the Hunter Region.

Lake Macquarie is a stunning waterway, four times the size of Sydney Harbour. It is ideal for swimming, snorkelling, scuba diving and fishing. You are even able to take a cruise on the lake or opt for water skiing.

Belmont’s championship golf course is one of the best in the region and offers breath-taking views of the lake. And for an unforgettable shopping spree, Charlestown Square offers 88,000m2 of fashion, entertainment, and dining experiences.
