The Cottage in Walesby is a superb holiday house with absolutely everything there you might need. We had hot and sunny weather so spent a lot of evenings sitting on the patio. Good parking for two cars. Just up the road there is a very handy little shop in somebody’s garage selling provisions. Carpenters Arms looked good for Italian food but was fully booked for when we wanted to go.

We have just finished a wonderful week stay in The Cottage. Check in was very easy and the property was easy to find. Plenty of parking. The property had everything we needed and the kitchen was really well equipped meaning you could also have family meals at home. Large Tesco and an Asda 10 minute drive away. We came with our labrador and teenage son and everyone really enjoyed themselves. The garden is brilliant and our dog showed no interest in trying to find any gaps in the hedge and was secure all week. There is a lovely park about 2 doors down and loads of brilliant walks from the doorstep. The Carpenters Arms was closed so we went to Edwinstowe and there were loads of places for food. We ate at the Landsbury and food was amazing. We also ate in the Fox at Kirton and the food was nice and it has a large beer garden. We visited Sherwood forest and Sherwood pines (Go ape) and it was all less than a 20 minutes drive away. The Walesby activity centre is less than 5 minutes away and you can get a wrist band for activities for 11 each for a morning or 20 for the day. There is absolutely loads to do there so brilliant value. Walesby woods is very nice for a dog walk and not too busy. All in all a very relaxing stay in a family area. The teenager checked out the WiFi and it was fine for Xbox use.

Overall, we had a relaxing break with our dogs. The garden is to die for, and there are loads of places to have quiet, undisturbed walks. The property itself is huge and great value for money. Thanks for the use of the BBQ; it really made our stay in the sunshine.

Very well equipped cottage. Felt more like home than a holiday let. There is plenty of room to ‘spread out’ if needed. We have family in the area and the cottage is an ideal place to stay while visiting them and many ‘local attractions’.

We stayed here for 11 nights and had a lovely stay. The house and garden are great and we had lovely weather to be able to enjoy it and have a BBQ. The location is perfect to get everywhere including Sherwood forest, Lincoln and Nottingham and very close to Clumber Park and Thoresby Park which are lovely. We didn't need to use it as it was warm enough but in cold weather the under floor heating would be great :-)

10.0 / 10.0

The house was very clean, comfortable and cosy with plenty of room to ‘spread out’. Our dog loved exploring the large garden and relaxing in her bed which was made all the more cosy by the under floor heating. The property was conveniently situated for us to visit relatives living nearby.

Amazing place with all the facilities that are needed. It was lovely and warm with underfloor heating. Really comfy beds. Nice to have 2 sitting areas. Large garden although not used due to the snow. Location excellent with many things to do in the area and a fabulous Italian Restaurant nearby. We will be back!

We stayed at The Cottage unbetween selling and buying a house. The owners have thought if everything. Very quick to answer queries. Very accommodating. Childrens park 2 mins walk away. Lots of wildlife to spot and some very friendly cows over the road . We were sad to go

A wonderful cottage, modern, clean, huge and we missed nothing. Only the sleeping rooms were to bright to sleep through. We always recognize a good landlord by whether there is a rubber squeegee in the showers. And of course there were ;-) !! The owners were very helpful and friendly. We visited lots of castles, museums, gardens, abbeys and workhouses and made sightseeing in Newark, Worksop, Mansfield, Nottingham, Sheffield and Lincoln. Our most favourite city is Lincoln: so clean, lovely and varied. Not to forget Sherwood Forest und Robin Hood. And last but not least: within one hour we reached the motor racing circuits Cadwell Park und Donington Park. If we stop in Nottinghamshire again, we will definitely book “The Cottage” by Richard & Wendy again!!

We came to this area to visit National Trust Properties and were not disapointed, its a great location and the cottage is superb. Lovely dinning/ sun room on the back, with plenty of character in the old part of the property. Would return if were visiting this way again.

Perfect - Exactly as advertised if not better. Lovely old house, quiet location and perfect as a base to explore Sherwood and Nottingham. Hosts had clearly given some thought to making this a home from home. We had a hiccup with the Wifi, quick reply to a text sorted things out. Definitely well recommended, I think we will be back for an Xmas break next year.

Came across this whilst looking for a dog friendly easter break and what a find. Immaculate throughout open plan downstairs with a gorgeous view out to the gardens. My partner filled up the bird feeders and it was lovely to sit and watch the birds on them. Very spacious rooms very well equipped. Close proximity to Sherwood Forest, Sherwood Pines, Walesby Woods, Clumber Park we had a fabulous time and would highly recommend. Thank you Richard and Wendy for sharing your lovely property with us.

We stayed for a birthday weekend with our daughter. The Cottage is spacious and very well equipped … we didn’t cook but everything was there if we’d wanted to! It was spotlessly clean. There were three of us, but it would comfortably sleep 4 or 6. The underfloor heating was a bonus in the cold weather - cosy and warm. There are lots of interesting places to visit nearby & the Carpenters Arms Italian restaurant in the village was excellent. Check in was easy and communication with the hosts was good. We would definitely stay again!

A good location for our family get-together in the Worksop area. The cottage was very nice and a pleasant base for our travels to family in the area. Richard and his local staff were very kind and helpful to us and rectified any small issues that we encountered (all minor). The village is quite charming with an eclectic mix of homes and the church beside the cottage was very interesting and several photos taken have recorded its back-to-front exterior. The local Italian restaurant, unfortunately, was closed so we didn't get to sample its highly recommended fare, perhaps on a future visit we can do so. Despite our local family health issues, our stay was positive and an asset to us traveling from the USA

The Cottage was light, airy & spacious both inside & out. It fitted our requirements perfectly for visiting family & enjoying nearby local attractions with our dog.

8.0 / 10.0

This cottage is immaculately clean. It has literally everything you could want for a home from home holiday. It has a great location to explore the many many different attractions, there are so many things to see and do. The property itself is huge, room after room after room and cleverly laid out. The internet was fantastic. The only point we need to make is the garden is absolutely not secure. The holes in the hedges and brambles are large and enough for our dog to waltz through to the neighbours garden on more than one occassion. We ended up having to place garden chairs and other items around the garden to prevent this. The left side of the property could really benefit from chicken wire. Other than that we had a lovely stay and would recommend this property, however we wouldnt recommend to dog owners.

A lovely house and area. Close to the all local forests. The house was pleasant and welcoming. Would be happy to stay again.

10.0 / 10.0

PROS: House is very spacious and well equipt. Plenty of seating, mirrors, bathrooms, storage and lamps. The showers are plenty hot and powerful. There's a play park about a 3 minute walk away. The owners are really lovely as is John the gardener. The huge sliding glass doors to the garden are fab and it's great that they have blinds. The main room is a great social space for all the family to be together while the sitting room is a lovely cosy area. It feels safe and homely. Garden is nice and large. Within short drives of Sherwood Forest, Rufford Abbey (I recommend) and other attractions. Easy to get to. Wifi is good. CONS: It's noisy - upstairs is polished wood floor boards which are very creaky and offer no soundproofing. Every noise upstairs can be heard down stairs and vice versa. Adults couldn't watch TV downstairs as it was keeping the children awake. Pub down the road is loud and one set of neighbours were having a party. Would be great to have salt and oil supplied in the kitchen. There's a bees nest which guests should be warned about in advance incase of allergies.
