Hello and welcome to The Lace; a blog all about Nottinghamshire and the local area.

I have lived in Nottingham for almost all my life and now live here with my husband, daughter, and our dog and cat. We love exploring different areas in Nottinghamshire, having lovely days out in the wide range of country parks, and visiting new and much-loved restaurants and pubs.

At The Lace, I share these days out and reviews of the places we go (whether good or bad!), chat about my favourite places to eat and drink and lots more!

I hope if you live in Nottinghamshire or are just visiting, you find some great recommendations of places to visit (or avoid!) and enjoy reading about this interesting and diverse county.

Thanks for reading,

Lou xx
