Tanya About Town<br />

Spring is finally in the<br />

air, and with it comes<br />

a whole host of<br />

things to do around<br />

our wonderful county.<br />

Read on for my pick<br />

of what’s on in and<br />

around Notts over<br />

<strong>March</strong> and <strong>April</strong>.<br />

One of the first signs of spring is<br />

when the bulbs come up. Holme<br />

Pierrepont is renowned for its<br />

glorious displays of snowdrops,<br />

and the last couple of weeks in<br />

February is the best time to see<br />

this amazing display, although<br />

the beautiful garden is open to<br />

the public daily until the end of<br />

<strong>April</strong> (except Saturdays). It costs<br />

£5 for adults (children are free).<br />

Holme Pierrepont Hall – 0115<br />

If you fancy something a little<br />

more adventurous outdoors,<br />

Thoresby Courtyard offers a<br />

Segway course that will see you<br />

take to the twists and turns of<br />

this woodland location (12-13<br />

<strong>March</strong>/ 9-12 <strong>April</strong>)<br />

Enjoy a fascinating day out at<br />

Britain’s finest Victorian water<br />

works by visiting a Steaming<br />

Day at Papplewick Pumping<br />

Station (17-18 <strong>April</strong>) or you<br />

of Ghost Hunting when Haunted<br />

Heritage visit Newstead Abbey<br />

(5 <strong>March</strong>) and Wollaton Hall (19<br />

<strong>March</strong>). Are you brave enough<br />

to join the team for a paranormal<br />

investigation ? Or perhaps you<br />

fancy a psychic reading, if so<br />

evening for you at Newstead<br />

Abbey (18 <strong>March</strong>). Go along<br />

and meet psychics and mediums<br />
