• What is life like in Nottingham?

  One of the most exciting cities to live in not only within the Midlands but anywhere in the UK, buying a new home in Nottingham is often an easy decision to make. Particularly when you take up an offer such as Deposit Boost or Deposit Unlock schemes, which could bring your dream home closer to reality than you thought.

• What is there to see and do in Nottingham?

  The city centre and its surrounding area are packed with interesting cultural and historical landmarks, not least Nottingham Castle where you can explore the on-site art gallery and museum. Wander down to the Old Market Square to soak up the city’s ambience, stopping at Nottingham Natural History Museum on your way.

  Head to the Lakeside Arts centre to catch a performance, or go for a skate at the National Ice Centre, where you can also watch hockey games. 

  The National Justice Museum is well worth a visit, along with Wollaton Hall, the City of Caves and the spooky Haunted Museum. Don’t miss Rushcliffe Country Park, Bestwood Country Park or Attenborough Nature Reserve if you’re looking for some natural spaces to enjoy, or nods to the region’s legendary Robin Hood at the Experience museum and Sherwood Forest.
