<\/a><\/p>\n So, yes, I bang on about The Sherwood. I’ve eaten, worked, drank cocktails, listened to music and then, then I got to stay. To wander over to my room. To nestle in the perfect white sheets. To wake up and know I didn’t have to drive to get there. (I Iive about 3 minutes drive from the place).<\/p>\n Lucky? I wouldn’t call it lucky. Well, actually maybe I would. And I loved it.<\/p>\n Created out of the original Sherwood Manor, this place has had a complete revamp of restaurant, tepee, veggie patch, mountain bike jump park (yes really) and accommodation. You can read about eating here<\/a>, recipes here<\/a> and now I finally got to nestle in it’s warm walls for the evening.<\/p>\n Beautifully simple, all you could need, recycled, sustainable goodness was what met me on the turn of the key.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n They’re clever these guys.

Madonna gets a mention, as does ‘we haven’t painted the place so we can spend more money on solar panels.’ Head here<\/a> for information goodness,\u00a0here <\/a>for Facebook goodness and here<\/a> for Instagram goodness. It’s all goodness.<\/p>\n I recommend the twice cooked potatoes too. And I won’t be held responsible for your addiction.<\/p>\n The Sherwood So, yes, I bang on about The Sherwood.
