To enhance your sense of escape, you can put your bags down in an authentic Nottinghamshire cottage.

A rich cultural and historical heritage

Nottingham has preserved the old-world charm of its historic monuments, as evidenced by Nottingham Castle. Overlooking the city, this 17th-century manor house was erected on the ruins of a Norman fortress. It would have been the stronghold of the Sheriff of Nottingham, Robin Hood's sworn enemy. It currently houses a museum featuring a fine collection of alabaster sculpture, pottery, and 19th and 20th century British paintings.

Robin Hood is not Nottingham's only literary hero, as you can discover personal memorabilia of Lord Byron at Newstead Abbey. Between 1808 and 1814, the poet lived in this beautiful 12th-century building nestled in the heart of a verdant park studded with streams and Japanese gardens.

Favorite nightlife hangouts

At dusk, Nottingham comes alive with plenty of ideas for a great night out. Night owls are spoilt for choice, between pubs, nightclubs, cinemas as well as theaters such as the Nottingham Arts Theatre and Theatre Royal and Royal Concert Hall.

Music lovers can enjoy concerts at Nottingham Contemporary art center or Malt Cross, a 19th-century music hall. In addition to recitals and open stages, this Victorian establishment also offers tours of its underground caves. Finally, if you just want to get some fresh air and sip a drink with friends, head to King Street where they serve probably the best cocktails in Nottingham.
