Linacre Reservoirs — Attraction in North East Derbyshire

Wonderful place to visit.. Lots of lil walks and the main pathway walks too..so much nature.. Picnic benches at various points. Some walks where dogs have to be kept on a lead therefore making some people feel more at rest/ease. ( occasions where some dogs are off lead may want to say hello to you ) many people I see here are friendly. Public toilets always open when I visit.. Hand sanitizer at the doorways. Plenty of parking with the choice to purchase a seasonal /annual ticket if you wish to online, meaning you can park anytime in a different area for these ticket holders only. I haven't had a time yet where I couldn't get in the main 2 car parks though and the pricing is fair, ( was free during lockdown ) in good weather there is usually a Frederick ice cream van too. 😋🍦 Definitely worth the visit more than a few...

Another bonus is that it's so close to Chesterfield, but you still experience the...

Really good place to forget about the bustle of life.

Parking starts at £1 for 2 hours and there are 3 car parks and special disabled slots right down the track in the woods.

There are his, hers and disabled toilets at the ranger station too.

Three reservoirs covering about 2 miles both off and over water. With various walks throughout the area in fields, woods and on bridleways.

There are tons of dog walkers here, so be considerate if you have a large dog.

There are occasional activity groups here and lots of tree carvings in the woodland walks.

Great...
