Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
My house is on a small new estate about 8 miles from the City of Nottingham, close to several pretty villages with a good bus service. Some good walks, with great shopping facilities at Mapperley just up the road and Arnold town about 3 miles away. There are good rail services from Nottingham. Popular places to visit are: Southwell, Newark, Lincoln, Rufford Abbey, Sherwood Forest and of course Chatsworth House in Derbyshire. Nottingham has some good museums, theatres and shops. I do leave details of all these for my exchangers and do everything I can to ensure a happy stay.
A recent exchanger wrote "We have had a great exchange, loved the Workhouse at Newark with it's Minster and library; enjoyed Newark with the trails around the town, spent a special day at Attenborough Nature reserve, Clumber Park and Shewood Forest. Visited Kenilworth castle and Calke Abbey. Come and see for yourself!!

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
My house backs onto Gedling Country Park and is easily reached. It’s very popular with walkers, last year my exchangers went there at night to listen to the owls and looks for other wildlife.
Ruffled Park is a short drive away with it’s Abbey Ruins and lake whilst Newstead Abbey (home of late Lord Byron) and Clumber Park are within easy driving distance.
Southwell with a National Trust Work House and beautiful Minster have a Farmer’s Market on a regular basis. Newark is famous for it’s history with Castle ruins and Civilo War Museum. Chatsworth House and grounds are easily visited in a day, so too is another National Trust treasure Harfdwick Hall.
