ALVASTON Park is well laid out and landscaped, with provision for ample parking. All utility services are provided to the park, including recently installed mains natural gas. Regular delivery services provide dairy products. Newspapers and periodicals are available to residents if required.

The town of Alvaston is within five minutes’ walk, providing access to shops, banks, public houses, a post office, filling station and various other essential amenities.

The major stores and facilities of Derby may be reached by a regular bus service to the city centre. This vibrant and cosmopolitan city boasts a fantastic heritage.

You can experience cutting-edge culture, shopping and entertainment in the heart of a compact city where history combines with a modern atmosphere.

With three free museums, a World Heritage Site, Royal Crown Derby – the oldest surviving manufacturer of English bone china, a new arts and media centre, and a cathedral housing the oldest ring of ten bells in the world – as well as a nest full of peregrine falcons – Derby certainly has something for everyone.

You could explore the oldest turning shed in the world, where the golden age of steam once ruled the world. The crumbling remains of Derby Roundhouse has been sympathetically restored into a unique learning centre for Derby College, and this special tour reveals how the impressive new buildings complement the character of this historical site.

The Peak District National Park is a short drive away, bringing an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty within the reach of park residents. This world-class destination stretches from the dramatic moorland and breathtaking landscapes of Britain’s first National Park, to the ancient oaks of the National Forest in the south of the county.

With a fascinating historical and cultural heritage, this unique and diverse region is home to some of the country’s finest stately homes, enchanting market towns and picturesque villages.
