If you're feeling the Christmas spirit there's lots going on across Nottinghamshire to make the most of this magical time of year, and for those who are still feeling a little more Srooge than Stanta's little helper, we've picked out a few comedic highlights in the hope they bring a smile and raise a chuckle. There are many more events on our What’s On calendar, so be sure to have a gander, or read on to check out some of our favourite things to do this weekend…

Nestled in the pretty rural enclave of Clipston-On-The-Wolds in the Nottinghamshire countryside lies a hidden gem renowned by those in the know, including many top Midlands restaurants, for their exceptional produce. At the heart of the picturesque Blackberry Farm lies Harker’s Farm Shop, one of the most highly regarded butchers in the country, selling meat raised with the highest standards of traditional stockmanship in the surrounding fields. We caught up with the family-run buiness to get some recommendations for the Christmas dinner table. 

Nottinghamshire is stunning at this time of year and a walk in the wintery sun can be just the tonic to combat seasonal blues. Wrap up cosy and take a wander around one of the county's country parks, canals or the iconic Sherwood Forest.

With December in full swing we are now fully in the mood for spectacular seasonal soirees and cheery Christmas celebrations. Pull on your woolly Christmas jumpers and mosey along to one of these fabulous festive events!
