About Beechwood Park

Beechwood Park is a 25 acre holiday and fishing park at Elvaston near Derby, sitting between Borrowash and Thulston. Six well stocked lakes offer around 170 pegs, catering for pleasure anglers, clubs and matches as well as complete beginners. A tackle shop at the head of the park sells bait including maggots, pellets, sweetcorn and luncheon meat, and accommodation ranges from log cabins and glamping pods to about 150 touring caravan and camping pitches with electric hook-up. The Grade II listed Elvaston Castle estate lies just over the road for non-fishing days. Contact the park for current day ticket prices and lake rules before travelling.
