Overview
Property code: 81385

Whatever your celebration, this property is the perfect place, offering 14 en-suite bedrooms, kitchen, lounge, central dining hall, nightclub, games room, and outdoor seating with hot tubs.

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 28 guests over 14 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 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 14 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.

Just enjoyed my birthday weekend. Dave the owner was very responsive when I emailed queries and nothing was too much trouble. He and his wife really go the extra mile to ensure we had an enjoyable stay, their ethos was it was our home for the weekend. The venue itself is superb for large groups, great bedrooms, en suites and communal areas. SpotlesRead moresly clean hot tubs, emptied and cleaned after each group. Everything you need and more in the kitchen area. Brilliant weekend. Hide

My company and I have hired a house every year for a company weekend away, for many years now. This house is by far the best place we have ever been to. Not only is the house very clean and a great space for a big group to socialise and do fun activities, but the hosts and staff could not be more accommodating and helpful. We had an absolutely amazRead moreing time and will definitely be returning on our next trip! Hide

We stayed here as a group of 21 family members. The owners were on hand to help with anything we needed. The children were kept occupied with the hot tubs and games room. The communal areas were very comfortable and well thought out. The nightclub in the basement is amazing! The rooms are well thought out, spacious and have good facilities. I wouldRead more thoroughly recommend this place for a family holiday - we made some great memories in our time there. Hide
