Saddle Up & Unwind: The Ultimate Sherwood Forest Base for Cycling Groups

Organizing a weekend ride or a multi-day tour for a cycling club or mountain biking group comes with a unique set of logistical challenges. Finding a property that comfortably handles a group of adults is hard enough—finding one that treats thousands of pounds' worth of bikes, frames, and gear with the security they require is almost impossible.

Too many holiday rentals offer a tiny wooden garden shed with a flimsy padlock and call it "bike-friendly," or they force your team to haul wet, muddy kit through narrow hallways. When you are traveling with high-end road bikes, gravel rigs, or custom e-MTBs, that simply doesn't cut it.

Positioned right on the doorstep of Sherwood Forest’s premier trail networks and the famous Sustrans national cycle routes, The East Wing at Rufford Park Lodge is engineered from the ground up to be the ultimate premium hub for cycling groups and biking circles. Continue reading →

The Staycation Hack: Why Smart Families are "Buddying Up" for Summer Holidays

Let’s be honest: planning a summer holiday that keeps everyone happy is getting harder. Between coordinating school holiday schedules, finding a place that genuinely welcomes dogs, and managing a vacation budget, the stress can mount before you've even packed a single suitcase.

That is why a major new travel trend is taking off this summer: The Multi-Family "Buddy-Up" Staycation.

Instead of booking three separate, cramped hotel rooms or generic holiday cottages, smart friend groups and extended families are pooling their budgets to take over premium, large-capacity properties. When you split the cost of a luxury 5-bedroom lodge three ways, you suddenly unlock an estate-level holiday for a fraction of the price.

If you and your favorite families are ready to escape together without ever feeling like you are living on top of each other, The East Wing at Rufford Park Lodge is engineered for the ultimate shared getaway. Continue reading →
