Things to do in Nottinghamshire
There’s so much to enjoy in and around the county, but if you’re not familiar with the local area, here are just a few of the activities you can enjoy.
Discover the forest
Sherwood Forest is an ancient royal forest in Nottinghamshire, famous for its association with the legend of Robin Hood. A National Nature Reserve encompassing 423.2 hectares, it’s home to a range of flora and fauna, including ancient oak trees, which have grown there for over 500 years. It also has several walking trails and hosts seasonal events, which you can enjoy with all the free time you now have in retirement.
An architectural wonder
Wollaton Hall is one of England’s finest Grade I-listed Elizabethan buildings and the largest dedicated Natural History Museum in Nottinghamshire. This heritage site has over 500 acres of parkland waiting to be explored; you can traverse the walking trails, go birdwatching and spot the herds of deer which roam the land. There’s also a tranquil lake, formal gardens and a play area, perfect for days out with your family.
Explore a place rich in history
You can delve into more local history at Newstead Abbey. This monastery was built in the late 12th century and is the former home of Romantic poet Lord Byron. The abbey boasts over 300 acres of parkland, with lakes, ponds and wildlife habitats; you can see peacocks and swans as you walk around the gardens. When it’s time for refreshments, go to the café which offers sit-in and takeaway options.
A focal point for everybody
Nottingham is the county’s beating heart and has an enticing array of shops, places to eat and entertainment venues. Old Market Square sits in the centre of it all. It’s where people meet, socialise and connect with the local community, as the site hosts regular markets and seasonal events throughout the year. The square also provides direct access to the numerous streets that comprise the city’s shopping scene.
