The 616 Venue, Sherwood Forest

There aren’t many party houses that can boast their own nightclub. But then this easy-to-reach, rural rental in the heart of Sherwood Forest is anything but ordinary.

Looking for somewhere you can really go wild? The reclaimed brick exterior of this show-stopping barn conversion belies the urban pizazz that’s going on behind that innocent reclaimed door.

With a cavernous dining room (complete with bar and kitchen), a big orangery for banquet-style gatherings, a retro games room, hot tubs and sound-proofed cellar club with disco lights, stage and sound system, this place is party central. Cosy snug areas mean you can break away into smaller groups. It’s bullseye for multi-generational get-togethers, corporate away days and luxe hen weekends. Wedding parties love it here too and it’s pretty special for those big end of decade birthdays.

The 14 spacious, stylish, ensuite bedrooms (sleeping 28) are all oak beams and exposed brick walls – purposely designed to offer the same level of luxe to avoid squabbles over who gets the best room. There’s a relaxed, pick-and-mix approach to organising your stay here. Cook for yourselves, choose your own caterer or use the bespoke in-house concierge offering. Can’t be bothered to wash up? They’ll sort that too. Down in the cool, clubby cellar you can even bring your own kegs and pull your own pints. It’s a chilled no corkage/no cakeage rule here.

Set in the heart of Sherwood Forest, it’s easy to access with great transport links from Nottingham and not far from the M1. You’ll find plenty of forest walks nearby to walk off the hangover too.

The best bit? There’s more to come. Work is underway to build eight new bedrooms, a swimming pool, aquarium and a spa area.  Phew! Time to gather the gang and get planning.
