About the neighborhood
White Horse Cottage is near to the centre of the world famous Sherwood Forest and the Major Oak. Walk through the forest and experience the Major Oak. Go in search of Robin Hood, visit the famous Major Oak and ancient forest. The rolling countryside all around is interspersed with traditional English villages offering a variety of walks and many cycling routes. There's plenty to see and do with the famous estates of Rufford and Clumber Park offering acres of space to enjoy walks and cycling. Fancy getting the adrenaline going then head to Sherwood Pines to take on the Go Ape 'High Wire' tree top adventure or experience the thrill of off road biking.Nottinghamshire is becoming famous for its locally produced food and cuisine, make the most of it and sample local produce at farmers market...
