Peace and tranquility
What a lovely site! Close to a beautiful lake and abundant birdlife. I saw a kingfisher for the first time here. Others said they had seen them too, so not a one off. Safe for children to play although young ones would need supervision by the lake. Lots of interesting walking and cycling routes, mostly off road. Especially good if you are disabled as the routes are pretty flat and with a good surface. An easy walk to the nearest bus stop and a slightly longer one to Stavely. The facilities are excellent. Great washrooms and generous sized showers. Enough hooks in them too, which is not always the case. The pitches are well spaced. For those who like the great outdoors this is an attractive site. Hard to believe it was once a colliery. It is possible for the more active to walk to Chesterfield along the canal. Much more dirdct a route than the bus!
