The cottages are conveniently situated with easy access to the A1, and well placed between the two historic market towns of Retford and Bawtry. Visitors will be able to discover many local places for shopping, exploring and eating out, including cosy pubs and fine dining.



Ranby is ideally located for Sherwood Forest where visitors can discover more about Robin Hood and visit the famous Major Oak; also a number of significant country estates such as Clumber Park, Thoresby Park, Rufford Country Park and the beautiful home and gardens of Lord Byron at Newstead Abbey.



Nearby Creswell Crags has Britain’s only Ice Age cave painting, and a short drive will take you to Laxton’s Medieval Farming System and the thought provoking National Holocaust Centre.

Pure Perfection with peace and quiet guaranteed. A beautiful cottage located in a vast expanse of countryside with farmland all around. The cottage had Everything you needed to self cater, which we did. The very spacious kitchen diner was welcoming and watching birds visit the feeder outside the window was lovely. The lounge was very comfy and the overall warmth was cosy. Bedrooms were very good with plenty of storage space. The two en-suites were also well quipped and the water was plentiful and hot. The location is well placed for the area and we visited Sherwood Forest and Idle Valley for the nature. A simple cheeky weeks stay in winter to make a change from home and to be able to use THE HOT TUB was a delight every day. I cannot think of a thing that needs adding or changing. Thank you for having such a beautiful place and allowing people to stay. We hope to be back in the summer time to see how the flora and fauna change. Would highly recommend to everyone.

Our stay at cowslip was wonderful. We could not fault it. It’s a beautiful cottage in a beautiful location. Some short walks to local pub and surrounded by beautiful countryside. Hot tub was lovely. The cottage was spotlessly clean and there was nothing the owners had not thought of. We didn’t want to leave! Huge thanks to Lindsey for ensuring we had a wonderful stay.
