Why stay here ...
You will be delighted by Poolsbrook Country Park Club Site - situated at the heart of the 165-acre Poolsbrook Country Park, it was previously the location of an active colliery. The land has now been magnificently transformed into an extensive country park, including a children's adventure play area, visitor centre, cafe for refreshments and many well stocked lakes for fishing. There are also many trails to explore, be it by foot, by cycle or with your dog, with the added bonus that the caravan park adjoins the Trans-Pennine Trail.
Poolsbrook Country Park Club Site uses a number of sustainable resource and energy features, making it an appealing destination for the environmentally aware concerned with kindness to our planet. The caravan site is also just 2 miles south of Staveley town centre, where you can absorb the area's industrial heritage. The entire area offers the opportunity to observe the interesting local wildlife - it is rich with a large variety of birds and animals, which will provide nature lovers with plenty to see while caravanning in Derbyshire. Easily accessible and conveniently located from the M1 motorway, the site is conveniently placed for stopover visits.

With added Pools!
First visit to a relatively local site to us. Spent 4 nights and experienced the delights of our varied weather. Very good facilities at this site and well maintained - a credit to the wardens. The excessive precipitation caused serious flooding in Derbyshire but thankfully the site is elevated and although a few pools of water created the need for wellies, it soon drained off. All hard-standing pitches so no mud to contend with. Then had two successive hard frosts which froze the water pipes at the service point nearest to our pitch but soon cleared by the attentive wardens. Good cycling and walking via the Chesterfield canal. Located a short drive from the M1, it's clearly a useful overnight stop-off for travellers north and south. Recommended.

Return vist
This was our third or fourth visit to this quite and well maintained site. Site staff were extremely helpful and friendly. great walks to exercise our dog in the surrounding areas will definitely will be returning.
Great site.
Think this was our third visit to Poolsbrook and hope it will not be our last. Just used it as a stopover on way from France to Lancashire this time so did not do much and the weather was not fantastic but the site is. As normal toilet block immaculate with loverly warm showers. Must thank fellow motorhomer Rod for his help with setting up the TV as we had never used the club's aerial before, we had plugged the white lead into the coaxial socket not the RF socket. Cheers Rod and welcome over to motorhoming, caravans are ok but ….as you now know LOL. Next time here with more time we will use the new electric bikes so we can cycle the many local paths.
Ideal base for exploring the area
The site is clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful. It makes a great base from which to explore the area and the adjacent lake is ideal for a short stroll after lunch. We enjoyed our stay here and will most certainly be returning soon.
A Gem of a site
We wanted a N Derbyshire site for a 5 night break and were not disappointed with Poolsbrook. The facilities are brilliant, pitches mostly flat, excellent staff and great for visiting the area. It's only 5 mins from the M1 at 29a and an easy drive. Plenty of walking around the country park or in N Derbyshire. We hope to return in the spring. Ideal for us.
