Image showing a typical Nottinghamshire scene.

Nottinghamshire is a county of outstanding natural beauty peppered with lively market towns and wonderful historic buildings. It is of course home to the world's favourite outlaw, Robin Hood. Nottingham itself offers much more than legends with vibrant nightlife, shopping, sports, arts and culture; this is (infamously) the stag night capital of the UK. With over 300 places to eat and drink in the city centre alone, all tastes are satisfied but some restaurants stand head and shoulders above the others.
