60th Birthday celebrations
A great little cottage with plenty of amenities, however disappointed to only have 2 wine glasses and 4 mugs for a group of 6 ladies, who all love wine and all love tea, which made it very challenging and annoying. Would recommend for anybody looking to venture to sherwood forest area, as very close to sherwood forest visitor centre. a great Italian restaurant in the village too, 100 yards from the cottage, which was lovely. all in all a great cottage and wouldnt hesitate to stay here again.

Lovely cottage
Really lovely cottage, just missing a few of the small touches. No salt and vinegar for example or cooking oil. Not enough cutlery for 6 guests, you can not alter the temp of the showe, it no longer turns. I would still visit again, but just a few little touches would make it so much nicer. I have a few holiday homes and I stay in all of them at least once every 6 months, just so I can really see what is needed.

Upside down house
The property is not suitable for the very young or old as the stairs are steep doors very low.The kitchen upstairs sitting room down stairs,makes it impossible to take a tray of tea down.We couldn’t find how to turn heating up.It was mild so not a big problem.Only 4 mugs and 4 wine glasses.Beds very comfortable and clean.No welcome pack.Only 1 bath towel per person no hand towels.Bathroom got wet through when showering,no mop to clean up the water.

Blue bell cottage
What a lovely and quirky home away from home to stay in. Location was key as we were racing the Outlaw X at Thoresby Park so this was perfect. Shops and restaurants are very close by which made things easier. The accommodation itself was lovely, very quirky with lots of character. The doors heights upstairs are a little on low side (a few bumped heads) but added to the feel. The 3 bedrooms are really spacious and lovely. The bathroom was also large and with a big shower and jacuzzi bath, what more could you want. My ONLY complaint would of be with the lovely, picturesque church opposite. It chimed at random intervals and played a rather annoy tune randomly twice in every hour. And before you say it NOT on the half hour or the hour. But that is marginal and I enjoyed the stay and accommodation so much that if I was to every come back to race or to visit the nearby attractions then I would definitely be looking to secure this property again. Also the letting agents were fantastic.
