Found an offer via social media to visit Santa at Middleton House. Only had to purchase a ticket for my Grandson and no other fees. We were greeted by friendly staff and shown the order of our visit including a letter to Santa, colouring in of decoration of his choice. We sat down and enjoyed a light, fresh lunch including a children’s pack and hot drinks. At our allocated time Santa’s elf came and collected us to visit Santa in his grotto. They had the theme quite right, beautifully decorated. Our Grandson happily discussed his Santa’s letter and chose his present which was very generous. No hustle or bustle, really well organised and relaxing calm experience unlike over crowded Santa visits we have experienced in the past. Beautiful gardens with lots of history, lovely staff and perfect tea room. We will be back.

Trent Park is a lovely place to visit and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. You can choose to walk one of the special routes laid out in the park or just wander at will. There is a small wildlife sanctuary along with a children's playground. It is a lovely place in which to picnic or alternatively you can have some lunch in the cafe.

Great sense of community with a cafe run by volunteers, an annual orchard fest, an occasional outdoor movie for the neighbourhood to come together and enjoy and a yearly funfair. The many lakes are also beautiful and rife with nature. The abandoned house adds character to the park with the intriguing backstory and glass panels to look in and marvel at what once was and will never be again. The recently established wetlands are pretty but a bit misplaced and impractical. Other than that, the park is lovely (don’t miss out on the greenhouse selling plants - they always produce fine crop!).

Have visited Forty Hall many, many times before and during lockdown. It offers so much - a walled garden, spaces to sit/picnic, a lake, fishing, a working farm, a farm shop and vineyard. Once a month there is a farmer's market. The house is worth a visit. Great starting point for some amazing walks. Absolutely love the place. Highly recommend.

Collection is straightforward and covid friendly? Having arrived at the appointed time, I was a little disappointed to be told to go wait in my car because my thought process was "oh? its not ready?" Not a bit of it though? That's intentional, you arrive, they dish it up, you go off with freshly served piping hot food. Much better idea! The food itself was fantastic if you like a traditional Sunday Roast. We all had a different main and none of us were disappointed. I'm not just promising to return, I've already booked!

Excellent meal, Last minute meet up with friends for dinner. Friendly service despite the fact that they were fully booked, found us a table by the bar. Food order which was straight into mains came out promptly and everything was piping hot. I had the steak and ale pie and it was a very generous portion and full of meat. Asked for extra gravy and was given it. I had chunky chips instead of mash and were fabulous. I really enjoyed my meal.My friends had the fish and chips which was very attractively presented on fake newspaper sheet and they said it tasted as good as it looked. My daughter picked the mixed seafood fried platter and was unimpressed as there wasn't much fish and it was way over fried. We ended the meal with coffees, cappuccinos were average yet the lattes were not lattes they were cappuccinos and even served in a cup. They were far too strong. Not worth having again.
