| "As a couple with a dog this park has looked after us well on two visits now. The staff are friendly and the activities on offer there to take up or not as you will. This time round we tried the archery and were delighted to find something that we both enjoyed and intend to pursue in the future. Set in a beautiful woodland site the park is a few minutes walk from Rufford Mill Country Park a short drive from Sherwood Forest Visitor Centre and a bit further to Clumber Park. All are delightful places to enjoy walks and some rather nice dog-friendly eateries (outside for the most part). We came back from our week long break feeling refreshed and eager for our next visit. Thank you all at Sherwood Castle!" |

The pool and indoor play area was excellent too we just did not have enough time to do everything. The Archery lessons were a huge highlight (thank you John for the great tuition. A great place for children to run free and ride bikes in a place where cars have a welcome rest at the side of their cabins. Very friendly and welcoming staff and the accommodation was very clean and warm. The benefit of beds made upon our arrival meant we could value every minute of our holiday. We did venture out not far! Across the road from the park is Rufford Country Park we had a super time roaming around the ruin of the great Abbey and were lucky enough to be there at the time the local art society were exhibiting their work what a treat. We also had lunch at the Sherwood Forest Park a short car journey away and looked in awe at the amazing 1000 year old Oak Tree. We cannot wait to book up again!" |
