After Pugs and Dachshunds, it was about time for the French Bulldogs to show Nottingham’s Café Sobar how it’s done. Being the animal lovers that we are here at Visit Nottinghamshire, we wouldn’t let this event go by quietly.

A welcome addition to the Go Ape family which already includes two different tree top adventures and a forest Segway experience.
