The area known as Allestree Park was enclosed in about 1818. The house begun by Bache Thornhill was completed by John Giradot (High Sheriff of Derbyshire) with three storeys and five bays, the central three bowed with an ionic columned porch. A large part of the estate was sold for housing development in 1928. The neglected house now stands in a 300-acre (1.2 km2) wooded parkland with lake, grasslands and former golf course, owned by Derby City Council. Allestree Park is designated as a Local Nature Reserve.

The 18-hole Golf Course opened in 1955, was closed in December 2020 and has now disappeared. There are several colour-coded & waymarked walking, running & nature trails to enjoy. Allestree Park is perfect for families to enjoy some fresh air and a stroll.

Markeaton Park is the most visited park in the Deby area attracting over one million visitors per year. It's about 207 acres. The Mundy family owned the area from 1516 until they gave the park to Derby council in the early 20th century.

The Mapperley Reservoir is a very large fresh water lake that spans 17-18 acres and includes a nature reserve that spans 2 acres. The venue, surrounded by trees and situated in a very nice setting, is a nice place to fish throughout the year.

A beautiful park with lots of open spaces, information about flora and fauna, streams and a lake, as well as a small coffee shop.

Still a lovely park but the golf course has closed and the Pro shop is no more so little opportunity for refreshments. In summer there is sometimes an ice cream van near the Hall. Park is due for "rewilding" which means there will be less open space for cycling and, for some obscure reason, a lot more fencing.

Mapperley Reservoir is a peaceful body of water surrounded by bluebell woodlands, rolling farmland and some fascinating remains from the area’s coal mining heritage. The countryside around here is great for wildlife spotting, especially bird watching. Keep a lookout for coot, moorhen, mallard and kingfisher. In summer, listen out for the songs of chiffchaffs, willow warblers and blackcaps, plus the more familiar calls of robins and chaffinches. There is a visitor centre in nearby Shipley Country Park.
