Dance the night away in your private cellar nightclub, with its own private bar, add some kegs and run your own pub. Bubble in the pair of hot tubs or get competitive in the games room, all without leaving the comfort of this fantastic home. The top destination for stag parties, hen dos or reuniting with friends, pack your bags and head to Sherwood Forest for a lively trip. Sleeping 26 guests over 13 bedrooms, bring two dogs along too and enjoy time in the fabulously sociable spaces both inside and out. In Wellow, just 4 miles away, you’ll find a pair of pubs and selection of restaurants and takeaways, in case you need a night off from the kitchen. If you fancy staying at home, chat to the owner about hiring a private chef and head to the bar area where the beer pumps await.

Pull up to this brilliant venue, as seen recently on BBC Two's 'Gone Fishing', and head straight to the main barn to get the party started. Downstairs, the nightclub is the place to show off all your best moves and to groove all night long to the built-in sound system and funky lights. Disco the night away or watch your friends cut shapes from the camera in the lounge upstairs. If you need a quiet night to recover, stick your favourite film on the Smart TV and chill out to regain your energy. Sharing its space with the lounge, the kitchen has all the appliances you need to whip up your pre- or post-dance meal…that’s if you haven’t arranged for a private chef to conjure you up a feast. When the night is finished, make your way out to the courtyard and into the welcoming bedrooms. All 13 bedrooms have their own en-suite so you can enjoy a refreshing shower whenever you fancy, and all have underfloor heating to keep your happy feet warm throughout your stay. Whenever you rise and shine, start your day with a game of air hockey in the games room or chill on the sofa and catch up on the night’s antics. There is a carpark nearby and easy drop off and pick up access.

Feel secure and comfort in the knowledge that staff are available 24hrs a day to help.

Absolutely loved it, what a wonderful place. We were a party of adults and kids, the kids had the best time ever because they were in a secure area but could roam free within the grounds and entertain themselves in the hot tub, games room, cuddling the ducks and just being kids. Adults enjoyed some chill time knowing kids were safe we could be adulRead morets. Had some issues with room temperature and hot tubs but the owner was very obliging and sorted any problems we had straight away. We will be back. Hide
