Hotels Ashby-de-la-zouch England Cheap Ashby-de-la-zouch Hotels Guide
Surrounded by the lush greenery of the National Forest, this old market town
is an encapsulation of all the traditional wonders of the East Midlands. It
acquired its rather unusual name via a combination of Olde English,
Scandinavian, and by the way of its past owner; a Breton nobleman by the
name of Alain de la Souche. Rather apt then that the town itself is a rich,
diverse mix of culture and history. Top of both these lists has to be the
castle, made famous by writer Sir Walter Scott, who set the jousting scenes
from his novel, Ivanhoe, here. Nowadays, in its ruined state, it still
inspires awe in its visitors; and is a complete day out, with an audio tour
of its past and great picnic spots on the grounds. Other attractions include
The Ferrers Centre, which houses an art workshop and a gallery of
contemporary British craftsmanship; a delightful attraction with a tearoom
on site. Both Dimminsdale and New Lount nature reserves act to compliment
the huge areas of local woodland, and continue to impress newcomers with
their plentiful ranges of animal and plant life. Both these and the
spectacular forest ensure a memorable journey into the town, whether you're
driving in via good links from both the M1 or M42, or taking advantage of
the excellent national coach services. If you need to stay
