Town and city breaks in Nottinghamshire

See how the law was meted out the old-fashioned way at Nottingham’s Galleries of Justice. Actors ask for volunteers to be tried for misdemeanours in the dock – perfect for disgruntled spouses. In the city, there’s local lad Paul Smith’s boutique where you can blow the mortgage, plus hundreds of high street names. In Worksop the eccentric National Trust property Mr Straw’s House showcases Edwardian life thanks to a family that threw nothing away. Just outside Retford take the circular Mayflower Trail tour telling the tale of the Pilgrim Fathers’ flight to the US.

Holidays in the Nottinghamshire countryside

Follow the Robin Hood audio trail in Sherwood Forest. It takes in the 800-year-old Major Oak which is said to have sheltered the outlaw and his merry band. Sons, lovers and everyone else can take a peek around DH Lawrence’s home, now a museum, in Eastwood – get there via a narrowboat ride on the Erewash.

Attractions in Nottinghamshire

Follow the muse to Byron’s medieval Newstead Abbey which the poet shared with a menagerie of animals including a bear. At the National Water Sports Centre there’s enough to keep you busy for a week, with canoeing, rowing, sailing, water skiing and white water rafting.
