 Excellent Caravan Club site. Facilities are of a very high standard.
Location is adjacent to a country park and this is very nice, although not very big. The lakes at it's heart is a good size and takes about 20 minutes to get round on a bike.
The nearest town is Staveley; an old mining town that has struggled a bit through the recession but pleasant enough. Found a decent butchers last time we were there.

We used this site for one night on our way up to Scotland. The site is exceptionally well looked after. The wardens are very particular about how the units are parked, which means you have a nice space between you and your neighbour. The toilet block is, as usual with CC sites, lovely and clean and warm. The wardens are very friendly and helpful. The site is on the Pennine trail, which is great for walkers and cyclists.
The site is positioned close to the motorway, which means it is a great stopover site and we will certainly use it again.

Lovely site, mixture of large hard standing and grass pitches. Heated toilet and shower block with piped music ( nice touch ). Usual wash up/ veg prep area, and laundry all spotlessly clean.
Site office sells milk, sweets ect, papers to order.
Very good information room.
Off site dog walk. No play area on site, but a lovely park with lake/ ducks and play area a short walk off site ( country park ).
Lots of walks with easy links to motor way and surrounding attractions.
Yes you have to pass an industrial site to reach the club site but once you get on site its worth it.
One of the nicest, well kept sites I have been on, the wardens are the nicest I have met.
If I had to find a negative it would be lack of recycling bins,
Yes I would return.

Very easy to find from M1. Very friendly and helpful wardens. Well laid out site and spotlessly clean. Lovely parkland surrounding the site which was ideal for walking without needing to venture out in the car to find somewhere. Plenty of places to visit locally. Would certainly pay another visit. I had an elderly relative staying with me and we were given a choice of pitches very close to the toilet block. Nothing was too much trouble from all of the wardens on duty.

This was an ideal site to stay on for just the one night on route to Warwick. Located just a few minutes from J29a on the M1. It is situated right on the edge of a country park.
The site itself was very well kept with a mixture of grass and spacious hardstanding pitches.
The toilet and shower block was centrally placed but can't comment on it as it was closed as we got there for some repairs but reopened later in the day. We used our own facilities.
Tv and phone reception were good. No children's play area on site but there is one in the country park.
Literally outside of the gate are numerous walks - so great for those with dogs. We walked along the track to Staveley but that wasn't very picturesque (through an industrial estate) so turned back. Walks round the country park were lovely.
The country park is ideal for fishermen with a lovely lake. It also has a visitors centre, cafe and children's play area.
Ideal site for breaking up a long journey.

Great site, on our doorstep, ideal for our 1st outing. Spacious pitches, some fully serviced. The facilities were 1st class and pretty much brand new when we visited. Some lovely walks in the area, straight off the site too. Ideal for dog walkers. The only problem was the amount of goose poo, which was all round the lake. However, we will definitely visit again. The wardens were very helpful and very approachable.

Picked this site because it is only 20 mins from home. Ideal because I was able to go and set up and then collect the kids & wife from work at 4.30pm. A quick stop at home and on site for 5.30pm.
Very friendly staff on check in. This is a very clean and modern site with large hard standing pitches. The toilet block was spotless. You are issued with a key for it, this is to stop people walking in from the nearby country park & using the facilities.
Great as a stop over or for a base to the peak district or Sherwood forest. Country park 5 mins walk from the site with a play park for the kids as no play area on site.
Country park also has a cafe where you can get a full english breakfast for just £3 in the morning, which was great. Can be a bit off putting if you arrive at the site through the housing estate and industrial units. But once on site you could be anywhere. Definitely go again.

We spent 1/2 of the Jubilee weekend at this site in 2012. The site was easy to find from the 'new' jnc on the M1. The wardens were efficient and I was checked in easily and let through the access barrier. We were advised to find a pitch and let them know the number so we could get a toilet block key and access card for the barrier.
The pitches were mostly hardstanding I would say but as they already had people on all of them we had to make do with grass. The grass pitch stood up well even with all the water that came down over the weekend.
I don't really know why the toilet block is locked down, maybe due to the walking/cycle route nearby.
Shower block was clean and tidy, everything worked. Pretty much a clone of other CC sites. The motorhome filling station was next to the toilets and was very clean and nice. The waste dump was the usual CC grates to lift.
The site was well looked after, there were a few kids about on bikes for our daughter to play with but no playpark.
The site is attached to the country park - a few walks and a lake. There is a cafe on the lakeside and an adventure park for the kids.
We didn't venture far due to the rain so can't really speak of the area.
One of my friends at work turned his nose up at us going to this site as he grew up nearby and didn't rate the area.
I spoke to a few others and they were of the same mind as me - overpriced for what it is.
It was OK, probably won't go back though.

Stayed here for one night after picking up our new caravan from a nearby dealer.
We thought the site was excellent with flat pitches, the majority being hardstanding. Yes you have to drive past industrial units but once on site you cannot see or hear them. As has already been mentioned the site is only a few minutes from Junction 29a of the M1. We found the site very clean, quiet and the toilet block immaculate. Other than a visit to Morrisons we didn't leave the site as it was just an overnight stop and we were too busy trying out the new caravan. There is an excellent play area 2 mins walk from the site next to the cafe in the Country park. We took some bread down to feed the ducks, beware of the swans, they will chase you if they see bread! There looked to be some nice walks round the lakes too.

This is an excellent site to use in Derbyshire for an overnight break on a long journey going north or south.
The site itself is a short drive from junction 29a of the M1. Other than that, it has little to recommend it.
Apart from a short trip into Chesterfield or to Hardwick Hall, it is quite a long drive to anywhere else although Sherwood Forest and Edwinstowe are worth the effort.
The site is barren and windswept as it has little shelter, and is in the middle of numerous industrial units and roundabouts.
There is also the roar of traffic from the M1, and of police helicopters frequently overhead.
Take an aerial cable to use on the bollard connection as TV reception is poor otherwise with ordinary aerials. And if you book a serviced pitch, make sure to take lots of extra lengths of hose and connections for your water roll, as on some pitches the tap is too far away to make a connection! We were able to move pitches to get the 'van closer to the tap, but others were not so lucky.
