Introduction

Treat yourself to three days in Nottingham, the Land of Robin Hood. Uncover tales of yore, explore ancient caves, wander through scenic landscapes and savor traditional English dinners. Intrigued? Onwards then!

Day 1 - Delving into History

Commence your journey with a visit to the iconic Nottingham Castle. As you explore this medieval fortress, you’ll soak up breathtaking panoramic views of the city. Don’t forget to check out the fascinating array of historical artefacts in the museum! From here, take a relaxing lunch at a nearby quaint café, fueling up before your next adventure. In the afternoon, make your way to City of Caves. Descend the labyrinthine sandstone caves while stories of their fascinating antiquity echo around you. Once back above ground, why not unwind with drinks at a traditional English pub?

Day 2 - Getting Green fingers

Day Two has you exploring the Arboretum, a stunning green city park. Can we say 'picturesque picnics' anyone? Crisp morning air, lush greenery; could it get better? After lunch, shift gears and head to Wollaton Hall. This magnificent Elizabethan Mansion doubles as the Natural History Museum, which is sure to satisfy the curiosity-bug. As dusk arrives, witness the hall’s stunning architecture glowing under the setting sun. Finish off with a hearty dinner in the city center, there's a sky-light polse in your name awaiting.

Day 3 - Admission to Adrenalin

Day three proves why the best things are saved for the last. Pay a visit to the White Post Farm, a favorite among families. There’s plenty to do here; feeding animals, go-karts, even an indoor play area for those unpredictable English weather days! Or ditch the animals and, perhaps, enjoy an adrenalin-fuelled afternoon at the Sherwood Forest Go Ape for an unforgettable treetop adventure! Whichever is your cup of tea, end your day (and trip) with a delightful meal at a riverside restaurant. Bon Voyage!
