Discover a peaceful Nottinghamshire village

Even with Nottingham on its doorstep, Wilford feels a world away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It’s the kind of place where time slows down, fresh country air enchants your senses and history abounds.

Take some time to explore our village, with the 14th-century Church of St Wilfrid at its heart. The church is just 300 feet from the entrance of the Ferry Inn, which has been proudly serving locals since the 1700s.

Alternatively, pay a visit to Nottingham Castle, or stretch your legs with a stroll around the grounds of Wollaton Hall. Or why not explore the countryside delights of Clumber Park, offering some of the most scenic walks in the region?
