LOCATION
Ashlands enjoys a fine position on the northern approach to East Drayton, which is a highly regarded village, boasting many bridleways, lanes and footpaths on hand to enjoy.
Though essentially rural in nature, the village is ideally located for the area's excellent transport network as it lies just north of the A57 and is convenient for accessing the A1 at Markham Moor. This puts the wider motorway network within comfortable reach. Retford has a direct rail service into London Kings Cross (1hr 30 mins) and less from Newark to the south. Nottingham East Midlands international airport is within comfortable travelling distance. Leisure amenities and educational facilities (both state and independent) are well catered for.
