Newstead Abbey

Originally built in 1164 as an Augustinian priory, this became the ancestral home of poet Lord Byron.

Reviewed By Natalya1

Not so long ago I moved to Ravenshead Village and to my delight, literally on the door step, I have the most beautiful place to go to for my daily walks with my dog. I fell in love with this magical place with amazing sunrise and sunsets, noisy and curious peacocks, Canadian Geese, Swans, beautiful waterfalls, lakes and ponds and the most amazing gardens! I don’t know any gardener personally to say a big thank you for keeping the Abbey grounds so beautiful, but their hard work definitely shows and is highly appreciated ! By pure chance I came across on Instagram to one of the gardeners page adavison.gardener and I’ll take a chance to say Thank you , you doing really great job! I highly recommend Newstead Abbey for a simple stroll around beautiful grounds, for walk with dogs, for tranquility and meditation in Japanese Garden, for bird listening and watching, photography, picnics, running , cycling and much much more ! 10/10!!!!

Welbeck Estate

Welbeck is one of the great traditional landed estates. Set mainly within Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire, an area of great natural beauty, some of the most important historic buildings in the Midlands have been revitalised and are providing unique residential and commercial letting opportunities for a thriving, sustainable community. The Welbeck Estate in itself is not a 'destination', but you can visit the following which are located on the Welbeck Estate: - Welbeck Farm Shop, The Harley Gallery, Welbeck Abbey State Room Tours, The Harley Café and The Dukeries Garden Centre (run by Notcutts Garden Centres)

I work on the estate to I seen quite a bit of the place, it really is a beautiful place to work. The buildings around the estate are stunning! I have been to the brewery and sampled their real ales, they are fairly priced and very well brewed. The ale is very well known around the area. I haven eaten at the café and it is lovely, its fairly priced and the food is really fresh. The farm shop can be a little pricey but the produce is well worth the money, lots to choose from. The garden centre is situated close to the café and there is also a café in there too. The gallery is next door to the café. The place itself is a must see, I believe the tours sell out very fast but if you can get tickets, you wont regret it!! The winter Christmas market is good to visit too, plenty of food to try!

Visit the Cafe in the Courtyard for light refreshments including freshly ground coffee, specialty teas and home made cakes.

Being Nottingham family we must have visited Wollaton Park literally hundreds of times. And while a little more TLC wouldn’t go amiss from the City Council, or a good deal more respect for the park from its visitors, it’s still arguably Nottingham’s finest visitor attraction. From its small natural history museum (housed in the historic Wollaton Hall which incidentally doubled as Wayne Manor in the Dark Knight Batman blockbuster), to its equally historic Camillia House and gardens, through to its picturesque lake and herds of roaming deer, Wollaton Park is an all things to all people, something for everyone of every age location. Add to this huge swathes of grass, numerous walks, vast expanses of open space, shaded glades, numerous views, adjoining golf course, ample seating areas, a cafe, and farm and souvenir shops and a kiddies adventure playground and it’s just the place to take the kids, walk the dog, take elderly parents or simply walk, sit around and enjoy. Not only that but if you arrive on foot it’s free and even if you park it’s only £3 so hardly breaks the bank. Check the website though because in the warmer months the park hosts numerous events from car exhibitions to huge weekend pop concerts.
