TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience

"Visiting Nottingham: For something that feels properly local, head beyond the obvious Robin Hood trail and spend time around Sneinton Market. The avenues are filled with independent food spots and small creative businesses, and it gives you a much better feel for modern Nottingham. If you want a historical oddity too, look out for Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem, which claims to be one of England’s oldest pubs."
