Why choose Chesterfield for your road trip

Chesterfield — a city worth exploring

Chesterfield's famous Crooked Spire at the Church of St Mary and All Saints twists 45 degrees and leans nearly 3 metres from its true centre, making it one of the most recognisable landmarks in the East Midlands. This market town in Derbyshire sits at the gateway to the Peak District National Park, giving you easy access to rolling hills, limestone dales and open moorland — ideal terrain for a campervan adventure. Stroll through the open-air Chesterfield Market, one of the largest in England, held every Monday, Friday and Saturday in the town centre. The Pomegranate Theatre, one of the oldest civic theatres in the country, offers a packed programme of live performances, while Chesterfield Museum and Art Gallery traces the town's history from Roman times to the industrial age. Hardwick Hall, the grand Elizabethan country house managed by the National Trust, lies just 15 km to the south-east, and the spa town of Buxton is roughly 30 km to the west along the A6. The surrounding roads are well suited to motorhome travel, with wide A-roads connecting Chesterfield to the M1 motorway and quieter lanes leading into the Peaks. With Yescapa, you hire your campervan directly from local owners in the area, which means flexible pick-up arrangements and genuine tips on the best routes through Derbyshire's countryside.

Best time to visit

Chesterfield comes alive in summer when the Medieval Fun Day fills the town centre each July with costumed re-enactments and craft stalls. The Peak District on your doorstep is at its greenest from May to September, perfect for parking up your campervan and exploring the trails. Autumn brings the Chesterfield Food and Drink Festival, usually held in October, celebrating local Derbyshire produce. Book your motorhome hire through Yescapa well ahead for the summer months, when peer-to-peer prices still tend to be friendlier than traditional hire companies. Spring and winter each have their own appeal — quieter campsites and crisp walks across the moors.

Where to park your motorhome

Chesterfield offers several car parks that can accommodate larger vehicles, though it is worth checking height barriers before entering multi-storey facilities. Overnight parking in a motorhome on public roads is generally permitted unless local signage states otherwise, but dedicated aires or overnight stops are limited in the town centre. Using a nearby campsite for overnight stays is the most reliable option.

  • Saltergate Multi-Storey Car Park, Adjacent to the city — Central location near the Crooked Spire; check height restrictions as upper levels may not suit taller vehicles.
  • Rose Hill Car Park, 1km north — Open-air car park with good clearance for campervans. Short walk to the town centre and market.

Frequently asked questions

What our users say about our campervans and motorhomes in Chesterfield

Matthew
5 / 5

We hired Trina for 5 nights earlier this July. My girlfriend and I had a fantastic time on the island. Jandro was incredibly helpful, always on hand before and during the trip to answer any questions which really helped us navigate the island and enjoy our trip. The vehicle was fantastic, an incredible experience to drive. All the amenities were brilliant as well. I would highly recommend using Jandro and one of his vans for a fantastic Mallorca experience!

5 / 5

Communication with the owner was great, van was immaculate, heaps of choice, love the peer to peer concept. Easy to add an extra driver and ID checks were very thorough but straightforward. Changing dates wasn't so easy, the owner was great, but the process at the back end took some manual effort. Teething problems, not a big deal. Main area that needs improving (for me anyway) is the deposit. There was a single line in a table stating Deposit: cash or transfer, that I hadn't seen. The owner asked for the cash or a transfer when we were at the car, which he explained was normal process, but Yescapa could have explained beforehand. I transferred €2000 directly to the owner, which didn't feel comfortable. I had expected this would all be done via Yescapa. I ended up losing €45 in exchange rate variations + fees as well, the owner's bank had challenges which meant it to 5 days to get a lot of cash back. It was lucky we had that amount at hand. I would use Yescapa again. I hope they can tidy up and improve the processes though.

Incredible time spent across the south of France with an incredible van! From beach, lakes, mountains and fields, it got me places I didn’t even pre conceive. Can’t speak more highly of my over all experience from van collection at train station to drop off. Drives smoother than my Suzuki jimny and can confirm very 6ft 4 friendly.

Aaron
5 / 5

We had an amazing experience hiring Eli's campervan! It was perfect for our family of four – myself, my partner, and our two young daughters. The van was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our trip. It was easy to drive, well-equipped, and made exploring the malaga so much more enjoyable. The owners were friendly, helpful, and made the whole rental process smooth from start to finish. We made some unforgettable family memories and wouldn't hesitate to rent this campervan again. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a fun, comfortable, and hassle-free adventure in Spain. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
