Ashby de la Zouch mumsnetters!

Hi, hoping people with local knowledge can help. Have a few days away booked and wondering if there were recommendations for eating places, attractions, walks or a spa etc nearby? Any highlights or must do things? Always prefer local knowledge to make plans. Thank you!

It’s in the national Forest I think. Calke Abbey is not far away. But other than that, I’m baffled why someone would book to stay there!

I spent the day last week at Champneys Springs at Ashby. Lovely setting for the day. I used the gym, the pool, had a lovely lunch and relaxed on a lounger all afternoon.
