Good choice, it's a lovely, welcoming site. Really sorry we can't fit in a trip there this year as we've been the last couple of years.

Have a great time!

Get onto the A1(M), onto the M18 south, re-join M1 south. Then all the way to junction 29 (A617 Chesterfield).

Go through Chesterfield and out the other side onto the A619...

The A619 will change to the A6020 (I think) to avoid a restricted road, and so joins the A6 at Ashford in the Water.

Turn right onto the A6 towards Buxton...

IICRC, On the brow of a hill, on the road side there's a pub called The Waterloo Hotel. Not far after there, there's a left turn onto the A5270, take that turn.

(If you look left just before it, you'll see the Beechcroft Farm site. )

Follow the A5270 to the A515, turn right, then virtually immediate left at 'Bookstore Brielow Bar', then again immediate right to the Clover fields site...

Hope I've got the directions and roads right, as we went to Beechcroft Farm and the Buxton CC site for a few years, so got to know the roads...

A617 is a dual carriageway from M1 to Chesterfield - about 7 miles.

Roads will take you round the edge. As with any town it can get busy especially on a Saturday as you will pass the retail parks. There are 3 roundabouts ( I think) to navigate to get round the town. At least 2 have traffic lights on - I'm not sure of the last one.

Its quite a short distance between roundabout 1 and 2.

You take exit 3 at roundabout 1 (A61 meets A617) and exit 1 at roundabout 2.

Hope this helps
