The Old Pump House

Situated in the heart of Annesley Village, midway between Mansfield and Nottingham in the so-called 'Hidden Valleys' area of Nottinghamshire, The Old Pump House is a unique and characterful retreat – perfect for families, friends, and groups. Accessed via a private lane, it is – as the name suggests – an ingenious revamp of a historic Victorian pump house, and comfortably sleeps 12 people in contemporary comfort.

The property comes with plenty of parking, an electric car charger and an impressive exterior with a large garden. Inside, the vaulted hallway showcases the building’s industrial heritage, featuring cathedral-like ceilings with original wooden and metal beams and a circular glass viewing panel which reveals a well below. The ground floor is airy and open, with rooms flowing into each other on the ground floor: there is a stylish dining area, an inviting seating area, where bifold doors open onto the garden, a comfy TV room and a superbly equipped kitchen with integrated appliances and a breakfast bar.

OF the property's six spacious bedrooms, two are on the ground floor, making this a suitable property for anyone of limited mobility, while the other four are upstairs on the mezzanine floor. Two of these have en-suite facilities, while another has a sofa bed and a lovely free-standing bath tub.

The large garden has views over the Newstead Country Park and is an idyllic spot to unwind with a drink or soak in the private hot tub, and if you want to explore, there are lots of countryside walks, as well as nearby pubs, cafes and restaurants. It's a perfect spot from which to explore nearby Kirkby, Sherwood Forest, Hardwick Hall and Lord Byron's Newstead Abbey.
