Calling Mnetters nr Sherwood Forest!

[triplets]

Hi I am staying in the forest nr Edwinstowe, need somewhere to go as its raining, nothing in Edwinstowe or New Ollerton. Any suggestions please vwith a 30 min drive? Any nice towns with nice shops, not Next, M&S etc! Thanks.

I suppose you've been out by now.
I stayed in a B+B in Edwinstowe for 4 weeks, once.
Mansfield town centre not much going to cut it?

Thanks anyway.................finally stopped raining at 6pm! Hopefully better tomorrow as its our last day here!

Have you got a car? Head up the M1 to Sheffield, or go east to Lincoln.

Newark? Small market town, some independent shops as well as a Next, m&s.

Its our last day tomorrow, hopefully it will stay dry and we can enjoy the forest. The cabin has been fab!

Don't live there but spend a lot if time there. Was also going to suggest Newark :)

Are you at the new forest holidays place?

Yes we are.............its lovely, fantastic cabins..........huge! Only an easy 5 min walk to th Sherwood Pines Park, fantastic cafe there with brilliant food and its cheap! The hot tub has been bliss................we leave in the morning and go to Tallington Lakes in another cabin in Lincolnshire............no hot tub though :(

Back home a day early, Tallington Lakes was sooooooo disappointing after Sherwood:(

That's a shame. Never been to tallington, that's the place with the ski slope isn't it?

Yes, we were on the lake next to it. Watched people going down it, it seemed very slow............but what do I know??
