Places maybe busier than normal because of the bank holiday on August 31, so if you decide to go to any places on the list make sure you abide by social distancing rules.
A message from the Editor:
Thank you for reading this story on our website. While I have your attention, I also have an important request to make of you.
In order for us to continue to provide high quality and trusted local news on this free-to-read site, I am asking you to also please purchase a copy of our newspaper.
Our journalists are highly trained and our content is independently regulated by IPSO to some of the most rigorous standards in the world. But being your eyes and ears comes at a price. So we need your support more than ever to buy our newspapers during this crisis.
With the coronavirus lockdown having a major impact on many of our local valued advertisers - and consequently the advertising that we receive - we are more reliant than ever on you helping us to provide you with news and information by buying a copy of our newspaper.
Thank you
Nancy Fielder, editor
1. Go to a drive-in cinema
While regular cinemas are starting to reopen, why not try something different this bank holiday and head to a drive-in cinema. There is one at Newark Showground for £27 a car. They are showing Tenet over the weekend.

3. Go for a walk
If you head to the Teversal Visitor Centre you can walk on the Teversal Trail, which is on former railway lines. You can even walk to Silverhill Wood, which was created from a former colliery spoil heap and is the highest man-made point in the county.
