A place I wish I could escape to more often!
A really well thought out and appointed flat. It has everything you need, is charming, cosy, and with a great view! Just a fantastic base for exploring the area, or just getting away from the hustle & bustle.

Bright, clean, well stocked holiday let with easy access to attractions
Lovely village with most conveniences. Easy access to local buses to travel to Nottingham, Sherwood Forest and other attractions. The rental was equipped with all we needed for our stay. Perfect sized kitchen and bathroom. Very comfortable bed and scenic country views. Jane is a fantastic host.
