These semi-detached cottages sleep up to four guests each, and have an interconnecting door which can allow the properties to be booked together. Cowslip has the luxury of a private hot tub in the barn enclosure.



The cottages are conveniently situated with easy access to the A1, and well placed between the two historic market towns of Retford and Bawtry. Visitors will be able to discover many local places for shopping, exploring and eating out, including cosy pubs and fine dining.



Ranby is ideally located for Sherwood Forest where visitors can discover more about Robin Hood and visit the famous Major Oak; also a number of significant country estates such as Clumber Park, Thoresby Park, Rufford Country Park and the beautiful home and gardens of Lord Byron at Newstead Abbey.



Nearby Creswell Crags has Britain’s only Ice Age cave painting, and a short drive will take you to Laxton’s Medieval Farming System and the thought provoking National Holocaust Centre.

The cottages are perfect for nature lovers to relax in the countryside and explore the nearby Chesterfield Canal, Idle Valley Nature Reserve and Daneshill Lakes.

A variety of golf courses and fishing lakes are also nearby, and with excellent road links, visitors can venture slightly further afield for a day out in Yorkshire, Derbyshire or Lincolnshire.

Cowslip cottage is probably the best hot-tub break we have been on, and we've been to lots. Really clean, comfortable, everything you need is here. Even provided towels, robes and flip-flops for the tub. Lots to do and see nearby, didn't have to drive far for anything. Tub is sheltered so will be great to use even in bad weather. Privacy is good too. Wi-Fi is reliable but not fast.
