About Whittington Moor
Where to stay in Whittington Moor
Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.
A room on Whittington Moor puts Chesterfield to the south and Old Whittington to the north, which suits a visitor working both ends of the Chesterfield district rather than one. The village keeps three churches. Christ Church, Chesterfield and the Parish Church of St John the Evangelist stand within walking distance of each other, with the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church nearby, and there is little else here to fill an evening.
Take Whittington Moor if you want New Whittington and Chesterfield both inside a short run.
