Nottingham, located in the East Midlands region, is a bustling town surrounded by verdant countryside. It is most famous for its association with the legend of Robin Hood. Today, the famed Sherwood Forest with its heathlands and oak woodlands is great for walking trips and exploring related landmarks. Nottingham Castle, which sits on the outskirts of the city atop a sandstone formation, and Wollaton Hall, renowned for its Tudor architecture and elaborate decorations, are popular historic structures. The recently renovated Old Market Square, Newstead Abbey, National Justice Museum and City of Caves are other must-visit places in the area. Be sure to stop by for a pint at Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem Inn, which claims to be one of the oldest pubs in Britain. Planning a quiet retreat?
