Additional sleeping for two can be arranged on the sofa bed in the living area. Freshen up in the bathroom, fitted to a high standard so you can enjoy a hot bath or shower at the end of an exciting day. The wrap around garden consists of a well-kept lawn and patio area, perfect for enjoying a barbecue whilst taking in the idyllic farmland views. If you fancy a night off cooking, then there are a range of friendly local pubs and restaurants in both Farnsfield and Southwell, as well as fresh, local produce found in local shops and at farm gates. Explore the pretty town of Southwell further, with its 14th century Minster, Southwell Workhouse and the National Trust’s beautiful Clumber Park, whilst there is also the Robin Hood Way and Sherwood Forest, where guests can take advantage of the many footpaths and green lanes cutting through the countryside. Alternatively, visit the cities of Nottingham and Lincoln for ample shopping and sightseeing opportunities. Carver's Rest offers an expectational retreat with your loved ones to Nottinghamshire.
The rural village of Farnsfield lies 14 miles north-east of Nottingham and 4 miles north-west of Southwell.

It is surrounded by the most beautiful scenery as can be discovered on walks straight from the doorstep. The cottage is very comfortable and beautifully furnished. We especially liked the wood stove which made the lounge nice and toasty during the evenings. Highly recommended.
