Off we went, four of us, to Poolsbrook, which is near Chesterfield in Derbyshire. It is an eco friendly site, which means windmills and solar panels, and the water which is used in the showers, is re-cycled and flushes the toilets!
As is normal on Caravan Club sites the place was spotless with friendly wardens, and we were surprised by how many people were there, considering it was a mid-week excursion. We stayed for three days, and Paul bought an annual rod licence and the large ponds near the site cost £3 per day for a permit.
Of course it did rain for two of the days, but we are quite used to that now, and it was noticeable how much cooler it was this time, but thanks to Katie's Husband, Alan, we got the central heating working fine.
We loved the place and nearby were any amount of shops, and a Morrisons just down the road. We will be going back there next year im sure of it.
The journey back was very slow, and the roadworks around Stockport and Hazel Grove meant that it took us a lot longer to get back home, but the whole mini break was great.
