Caravan owners looking to explore the Peak District may be given another option before long, as plans for an 11-acre site in the village of Riddings have been submitted to the local council.
The new site on Bullock Lane would be able to hold up to 75 caravans as well as several tents and a shower block, Ripley and Heanor News reports.
However, success is by no means guaranteed, as the owners of the land have previously been denied planning permission by Amber Valley Borough Council, due to a green belt land related dispute.
The first such application, which included plans to house 150 static and touring caravans, met with 117 formal objections from local residents last year, the newspaper added.
Holidaymakers can choose to stay at several nearby Derbyshire touring sites certified by the Caravan Club instead, including Blackwall Plantation and The Firs caravan sites.
