The semi-rural boundaries of Sutton-in-Ashfield offer lovers of the outdoors plentiful opportunities for long walks and alfresco leisure. The charming local landscape provides stunning views of the Nottinghamshire countryside, with Skegby Bottoms and Silverhill hiking trails both under two miles from the development.
Brierley Forest Park is a six-minute walk away and runs along Ashlands' northern boundary, with 78 hectares of green open space housing a play area, caf?, sculpture trail, mountain bike track, and more.
Those looking to keep fit will find several gyms and leisure centres within Sutton-in-Ashfield and its surroundings, including the recently extended Lammas Leisure Centre - regular classes and sports clubs are offered, with the Sutton Ice Rink also located here.
Entertainment and culture can be found locally and in the neighbouring Mansfield; a multi-screen cinema, popular theatre, and wide array of live music and event venues can be explored for a variety of evenings out.
