great site

Poolsbrook Country Park Club Campsite
A really well kept site with a welcoming and friendly team. Facilities are spotless and pitches are level. The location is perfect, only minutes from the M1 and access is good. A great stop off point. Shame its not open all year.

Please open in the winter!

Poolsbrook Country Park Club Campsite
Wonderful site. Well laid out around a super central amenities block which is warm and clean. Good hardstanding level pitches. Great location for getting out and about with easy access to motorway. The wardens were lovely and friendly and have worked hard to keep the site in beautiful condition with gorgeous colourful hanging baskets and flowers. My only complaint is that the site is no longer open all year round. I loved coming here for Christmas and New Year and visiting family & friends nearby. I think the Caravan Club made the wrong decision to close this site for the winter, please write to them and complain like I have if you agree.

Quick break away

Poolsbrook Country Park Club Campsite
Chose this site for it's ease to get to, and chose well, very easy to find and only a short distance from the motorway at Junction 29a, do not be put off by this, we experienced very little noise from the motorway, also note its next to an industrial estate, of which is very quiet and out of site from your pitch, the site is next to Pools Brook Country Park, excellent for walking around and observing the nature, back to the site, very well looked after with neat trimmed grass, the pitch's were almost level throughout the site with plenty of space between each pitch, the facillities were very clean and well kept and were of easy reach where ever you pitched up, however there are disabled pitch's reserved right next to the toilet block iff needed. Our host's were very polite and welcoming for when we arrived and throughout our stay, the shop was sparse, but hey they only just opened and had orders to fill it up for the coming season. The site has a bus stop a couple of hundred yards from the campsite going to Chesterfield and beyond if needed, Stavey the nearest village is only a short walk away with a few shops and pubs/restaurants if you like to dine out.

lovely site

Poolsbrook Country Park Club Campsite
The wardens are friendly knowledgeable and helpful. The site looked great on the first weekend of the season. I am disappointed this site is not open all year now and such a shame. The site is well maintained and the shower block has everything you need and was kept very clean. The country park on your doorstep means you don't need to leave the area. Will be back again later in the year

Sad to hear about the change to winter closure

Poolsbrook Country Park Club Campsite
This is a great site, well laid out and always with very friendly and helpful wardens. We stay here a few times a year and always have a good experience. In particular this year I had a great experience when arriving just before 8pm, after a ferry from France to Portsmouth and a long motorway run, then being welcomed and settled onto site with friendliness and no fuss. I'm sad that the club plans to close the site over the winter months. This is a site that is convenient to breaking long journeys during the dark winter months and I often use it as a final night stop off before putting the van back in storage. I also use it as I live close by and during winter is a good opportunity to get out for the weekend without travelling too far. The club fees have incresed of late and it would be easier to tolerate this if useful sites such as this were kept open in winter.
