Where to stay in Wollaton
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
Wollaton Hall sets the pattern for a stay out here, since the deer park, the lake and the golf course are what most guests come west across Nottingham to reach. Hardly a hotel stands in Wollaton. Parish streets around St Leonard's Church, Wollaton hold houses rather than hotels, so travellers who want a room near the hall look to the edges of the suburb or back towards the city centre.
It suits you if the park matters more than the nightlife.

About Wollaton
What are the main landmarks in Wollaton?
Wollaton Hall dominates. Its grounds hold a deer park, a lake, walks and a golf course, and the museum inside the hall accounts for most of what brings visitors out to this side of Nottingham. St Leonard's Church, Wollaton keeps the old parish centre, and the Wollaton Village Dovecote Museum stands close by with Wollaton House among the named buildings.
Deer graze the grounds.
What is the history of Wollaton?
Wollaton was once a civil parish. That parish is gone, absorbed into the City of Nottingham as two wards, though St Leonard's Church, Wollaton and the Wollaton Village Dovecote Museum still mark where the village stood. A sliver still lies in Broxtowe.
Wollaton Hall stands at the centre of that older ground, and Wollaton House keeps its place on the list of buildings recorded for this corner of Nottinghamshire, England.
