We booked a three night stay at the Piggery at short notice, relying on the excellent reviews online. We’re very glad we did. The property is relatively new, very clean, well equipped and extremely comfortable. The location is very peaceful with lovely views across the fields to Southwell. It’s an excellent place to stay.

Had a thoroughly relaxing week. Extremely quiet and well appointed cottage, USB connectors on most plugs was a nice touch. Great location, Southwell is a 5 minute drive away and has most things you will need. Nottingham is less than an hour away and has a good tram network. Would recommend.
