About
Center Parcs Sherwood Forest, nestled in the heart of Nottinghamshire’s famed forest, offers a tranquil getaway that blends natural beauty with a wealth of family‑friendly amenities. Guests arrive to a sprawling woodland landscape dotted with glistening lakes, sandy beaches, and bustling village centres featuring cafés, restaurants, and shops. Once settled, visitors can immerse themselves in the expansive Subtropical Swimming Paradise, an indoor/outdoor water complex loaded with wave pools, slides and a lazy river, or unwind in the award‑winning Aqua Sana Forest Spa where hydrotherapy and spa treatments await. Every day is a new adventure: from zip‑lining across the forest canopy to cycling along scenic trails, guests can tailor their stay to suit every age and interest. Families enjoy interactive play areas for young children, couples relish relaxed walks along the lake, and solo travellers can explore wildlife and nature trails at their leisure. Around 10,000 guests visit the resort annually, and the experienced staff ensure that each stay is both memorable and stress‑free.
