Cotgrave Country Park — photo spot in Hollygate Ln, Nottingham NG12 3HE, UK
Cotgrave Country Park
Small reclaimed-colliery reserve with a central lake, reedbeds, open grassland and tree lines—ideal for birdlife, reflections, seasonal wildflowers and moody skies. Visit at sunrise or golden hour for low light on the water; spring and autumn bring migrants and colour. Free entry; roadside parking off Hollygate Ln. Mostly flat, waymarked paths and a boardwalk give accessible vantage points—expect walkers and dog-walkers, so weekdays or early mornings are quieter.
