The Retford / Askham area
Off the A57 and close to the A1 lies the small rural Nottinghamshire village of Askham. Just seven miles from the Wetlands Waterfowl Reserve – with thirty-two acres of fishing lakes and woodland along with an exotic birds sanctuary – the village has a pub and is only a short drive away from Sherwood Forest. This historic woodland is host to a Robin Hood visitor’s centre providing wonderful woodland walks that include the renowned Major Oak tree. Clumber Park, belonging to the National Trust, is also close by and has over 3,000 acres of land for walking or cycling through as well as well-manicured gardens and a lake with over 200 different species of bird. The Roman city of Lincoln is only 17 miles away and boasts both an incredible cathedral and a castle whilst historic Newark offers a fine Georgian market square and a variety of shops, pubs and restaurants.

Guestbook for 3550 - Ginny’s Barn
We stayed at Ginny's Barn in the middle of a house move in December and on returning to the barn each day it felt like coming home. The underfloor heating made the property lovely and warm and the lighting was excellent. The owners were really friendly and the welcoming biscuits and tea when we arrived at the beginning of our visit were much appreciated.

,Friendly hosts and we always felt at home with them, the cottage was like the place we would all love to live in. We will continue to book our holidays with Sykes as we have been satisfied with all our holidays so far.

,The bed and seating were very comfortable and helped make this a relaxing stay. Excellent hosts.

,Once the weather had brightened we enjoyed the countryside, particularly Clumber Park. We also thought that Retford was the sort of town which, for its size, most people would like near them. We also enjoyed the bird life around the area.
