We currently have 51 hard standing pitches with 84 electric hook up points. To the bottom of the park we have dingle dell with 33 pitches which are set on grass within the orchard.A brand new toilet block is now open, Showers with underfloor heating are now completed with new eco friendly biomass boiler and solar heating. We are now hiring touring caravans on site and are doing fishing breaks in a partnership with 2 exclusive local lakes which are not fished much and well stocked with carp(F1 fish up to 28lb, tench barbel chub bream roach and rudd) .The park is surrounded by water to the s/west is the chesterfield canal which meanders through villagers and market towns from chesterfield and finally opening up into the west stockwith/waterfront marina, then via the challenging lock into the river trent.To the n/east of the park is the mother drain which is is adedicated envoiremental nature site which is protected due to breeding of rare dragonflies.
