Shipley Country Park

Shipley Country Park Shipley Country Park is near Derby and Nottingham and offers 700 acres of attractive and varied landscape.

In 2011 the park achieved Country Park Accreditation from Natural England for its facilities and services. Whatever the season, there's always lots to see and do in the park - walking, cycling, horse riding, bird watching, angling, picnicking, kite flying, jogging, wayfaring, photography, exploring the park and much more.
