Visiting Nottingham Castle and the iconic Robin Hood Statue promises an enchanting journey into the heart of English folklore and history.

As one steps foot into the grounds of Nottingham Castle, perched high on its sandstone cliff, a sense of grandeur and intrigue envelops the atmosphere. I always have to go and get a photo with Robin Hood. It would be rude not to! Haha.
