Living in Nottinghamshire

All of this, right on your doorstep

Regardless of whether you prefer museums or festivals, you’ll find something to do all year round in Nottinghamshire.

Starting with Nottingham, make the most of a sunny day by visiting Wollaton Hall and its park or head to the National Justice Museum if the weather isn’t on your side. For those wanting to learn more about the city's history, the Lace Centre will teach you all about Nottingham’s strong connection with lacemaking.

For things to do in Nottinghamshire outside of its biggest hub, why not take a day trip to Beeston to explore and witness its famous street art?

Or if you find yourself in Southwell, check out the Southwell Minster or attend the annual Bramley Apple Festival.

And if you want a fun day in Newark-on-Trent, visit the castle, one of the many museums in the town or browse the antique fair that take place every other month.

Transport in Nottinghamshire

The A1, M1, A52, A606, and A61 all run through Nottinghamshire, offering plenty of ways to travel both north to Newcastle, and south to the likes of Northampton and London.

When it comes to public transport in Nottinghamshire, bus companies like Stagecoach provide connections between most settlements in the county, especially around bigger towns such as Mansfield and Newark-on-Trent.

There is also a good railway network in Nottinghamshire, as East Midlands Railway, Northern Rail, East Coast Trains, and CrossCountry all run services in the county, providing connections to Leicester, Norwich, Leeds and beyond.

And if you have upcoming plans for a nice holiday abroad, East Midlands Airport is the closest airport to the area (26 minutes by car from Nottingham city centre). It’s also accessible by bus and train, and offers international connections to places like Spain, Germany, Greece, and even the USA.

Shopping in Nottinghamshire

It goes without saying that if you want a full day of retail therapy, Nottingham should be your destination, as the city’s compact layout makes a day of shopping simple and enjoyable.

You can spend your time wandering Bridlesmith Gate shopping street or make your way to Victoria Centre, where you’ll find your favourite high street retailers and large department stores. For more unique offerings and local boutique stores, get lost at the Lace Market or the Flying Horse Walk.

However, that doesn’t mean there aren’t other places to shop in, as many other towns in Nottinghamshire, such as Newark-on-Trent and its over 100 independent shops, have great shopping opportunities.

Local products can also be found in the many markets around the county, like The Garage Market in Chilwell (up to 50 stalls). It's open every Sunday, with sellers offering high-quality crafted and vintage items for sale, as well as plenty of food and drink.

Restaurants in Nottinghamshire

One thing is certain when it comes to food, Nottinghamshire has restaurants to suit every taste and budget.

It will come as no surprise that some of the best restaurants in Nottinghamshire are found in Nottingham, like Michelin-star-awarded restaurants Restaurant Sat Bains, serving British cuisine, and Alchemilla, where Chef Alex Bond, previously taught at Sat Bains, is at the helm.

The self-proclaimed oldest inn in England, Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem is also a worthy mention, where you can enjoy local ales and some pub classics in a great rustic setting.

Over in Newark-on-Trent, you can find Taylor’s Restaurant for fine dining, Koinonia for South Indian cuisine and Thai Sabai for an authentic taste of Thailand.

If you’re after a more rural taste of Nottinghamshire, you’ll be glad to hear there are plenty of great food-serving pubs in smaller villages, such as The Royal Oak in Car Colston.
