Driving around the UK –Nottingham

In this our third instalment of this series, we are in Nottingham and I will be giving you some guidance on what to see while there. Nottingham is a beautiful city, it really is and it is advised to spend a couple of days there, because there is quite a bit to see! So relax and unwind, stop stressing about your expiring car insurance policy that you have to renew as soon as you get home and drink in the wonderful atmosphere that Nottingham has to offer.

Your first stop surely has to be the Galleries of Justice.  They provide a fascinating insight into the crime and prosecution process throughout the ages. I am not the biggest fan of the judicial system and the processes it follows, but this was a great stop and I really did love it.

Secondly you want to go and have a look at Nottingham Castle with its big statue of Robin Hood outside. On the inside you will find a myriad of small passages that depict Nottingham through the ages, another very interesting place to visit. But after all this walking and being a tourist, you have more than likely worked up a little thirst and possibly an appetite and where better to go and have lunch than at Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem - The oldest inn in England established in 1189 AD? The fare is great and the pints cold, watch you head though, the ceiling is a little on the low side.

So after a nice lunch and a couple of pints why not head back to your hotel for a well deserved night’s rest? Or you could take in some of the legendary night life Nottingham has to offer. Just remember to not drink and drive as getting caught drink driving will not only get you into trouble with the authorities but renewing that car insurance policy after being arrested will be more expensive because you will be deemed more of a risk! So take care when on holiday!
