The formal dining room is the perfect place to host a family meal, followed by a cosy chatter around the woodburning stove in the sitting room. From the patio at the back of the cottage, the verdant lawn leads delightfully to a pond strewn with water lilies. The garden continues to enchant with an orchard, a stream, a wild garden and secluded areas that are perfect for whiling away the hours with a good book, or capturing the perfection onto canvas! The village of Carlton-in-Lindrick is close to Sherwood Forest and Clumber Park, both fantastic locations for a day out and picnicking in the sunshine.

Carlton-in-Lindrick is a village in Nottinghamshire, approximately three miles north of Worksop. The village has a selection of shops and pubs, including the Blue Bell and the Grey Horses Inn, so you have all the essentials on hand for your time away. Featured in the Domesday Book, the village has links to Saxon times and the local church bears testament to this. The 'Devil Stone' stands outside the church and is the subject of many local legends. Carlton-in-Lindrick had a bike making and repairing business, built up by Mr Fred Hanstock, which eventually became Carlton Cycles until it was taken over by Raleigh. The village is a wonderful base for exploring the surrounding countryside, situated a short drive from the Peak District National Park and less than half an hour from Sherwood Forest and Clumber Park.

If you want a unique holiday home with a big slice of nostalgia thatâs Pringles Orchard. The garden or should I say grounds are wonderful, full of trees, a stream at the bottom of the garden, full of fish. A beautiful pond in the garden which at the time of our stay had a family of moorhens which kept us amused, Our weather was glorious so what more could you want for a wonderful holiday. Will definitely return next year.

It was very spacious, well maintained, comfortable, warm and very well equipped with everything we needed. The garden was a great place to spend time and wander, a lovely taste of nature right outside the back door. The hosts were very welcoming and pleasant. There is plenty to see in the area and lots of places to eat out.We will certainly be planning to return.

We were there for our sonâs wedding and it felt like the celebration started as soon as we arrived and saw the lovely house and garden. Friendly and helpful host made it a perfect stay. Would definitely recommend.
