It's English Tourism Week and as we're slowly going back to normality we would like to give you a warm welcome back to our fair county! We're excited to tell you all about the things that make Nottinghamshire such a great place to visit, and the things that make us unique. So naturally, where better to start than with our outlaw hero, Robin Hood?
No one knows quite how far back in history the legendary tales started, or who the very first Robin Hood was, but we do know that the ballads of this loveable rogue first appeared in manuscript towards the end of the 1400s. Originally, they were six tales, all written in simple four-line rhyme. They tell stories of Robin’s tricks against the Sheriff of Nottingham, his friendship with the ever-loyal Little John, testing the honesty of travellers to see if they were worthy of his help, his trusted band of Merry Men, and more.
Fast forward several hundred years and we’ve now many film and television adaptations (some better than others but we’ll leave that there!), a world-renowned, much-loved hero and plenty of pretty awesome things to do in Nottingham to enjoy an authentic Robin Hood experience.
If you're looking for some ideas and inspiration for a future holiday to Nottinghamshire as soon as it's safe to do so, simply check out our fabulous two-day Robin Hood itinerary, which will see you galivant across the city and county just as Robin did, experiencing the delights of Sherwood Forest, learning archery and visiting the awesome Robin Hood statue, just by Nottingham Castle. There is however something, or should we say someone, that we’d like to draw your attention to today, during English Tourism Week; the ever-popular Robin Hood Town Tour.
A tour of the city led by our favourite outlaw is definitely something you'll want to experience in the future.
