Does anybody have any information about Carr Vale (just outside Bolsover)?
Is it a nice area or is it "horrid"?

Thank you.

Avoid like the plague....even the folk from Bolsover won't move down there. PM me if you want any further information.

That's right steevie, but it gets a lot of bad press these days.

ooooo I wouldn't recommend "The Vale" to be honest. I am from Bolsover (new development, nice houses, thanks!) and Carr Vale (and the Model) are well known rough areas.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Thanks for the info. We have heard about a new business park and new M1 junction that is being built near there and thought that this might have a positive impact on the area within the next few years.
