An envious setting on Gorse Hill…

Gorse Hill is a quiet, tree-lined, no-through road, a pretty turning off popular Longdale Lane. Ideally nestled away, this characteristic and charming residential address offers a sense of tranquil seclusion set in a private position with a countryside feel but still enjoys all of the benefits of being in the heart of a well-connected village. It's an easy and pleasurable stroll from Gorse Hill to the local shops, which include a Nisa Convenience store, deli/butcher, grocers, and a post office. A Sainsbury's Local offers further shopping, and a farm shop provides a taste of country life. Village residents enjoy a strong sense of community, often coming together for local events and activities at the many vibrant amenities, including several village pubs, a village hall, a library, a church, and a leisure centre. There are also all the necessary facilities, including the doctor's surgery, a dentist, a chemist, and hairdressers. There is primary schooling in the village and catchment secondary schools close by. Ravenshead offers the perfect mix of countryside living and modern convenience. It is the ideal spot to explore the stunning, picturesque, natural beauty of the surrounding woodlands and forests, but travel links are also quick and easy, with junction 27 of the M1 nearby, and Mansfield and Nottingham are also easy to reach for more facilities."
