Today, listed buildings from many centuries contribute to its period charm, and include Amcott House, now Bassetlaw Museum, Trinity Hospital, Almshouses, Sloswicke's Hospital Almshouses and the ornate French inspired Town Hall on Market Square. However, Retford has plenty to please today's residents, with good choice of shops for everyday shopping, and several more specialised retailers for when you're looking for something less run-of-the-mill. The Chocolate Kitchen is packed with naughty-but-nice treats; and Honey & Fig is the place for breakfast, coffee and delicious cakes. Mollie Rocker Bakery offers children's baking classes along with moreish food; and The Leaky Teacup is a strictly gluten-free café. Local restaurants include The Glasshouse, a contemporary bistro; The Old Police Station at King's Park Hotel; and the popular Alberto's Bar & Bistro. The Brew Shed has won numerous awards and continues to win over customers with excellent beer and food from its artisan kitchen. 

Retford's jewel is undoubtedly King's Park. Set in the heart of town, its 24 beautiful acres embrace formal gardens, children's water play, wildlife and rose gardens, tennis courts and a skate park, with the pretty river Idle meandering through it all. It has earned many awards over the years including the prestigious Green Flag. Follow the course of the river Idle, and you come to one of the largest, Idle Valley Nature Reserve, a 1000-acre wetland paradise for birds, bats and many other creatures. Families, walkers and nature lovers are also very welcome, and it's one of the region's most rewarding sites for birders. Just north of Retford, a network of lakes and waterways provides a haven for nature as well as great opportunities for outdoor relaxation. Carp fishing, water skiing and sailing are just a few of the ways to enjoy this wonderful resource. If you'd rather stay on dry land, there are miles of trails and footpaths to explore, with Daneshill Lakes a particular favourite for easy-going walks. Clumber Park, once a grand ducal estate, has 3,800 acres of parkland open to visitors, where the delights include the magnificent walled kitchen garden, Europe's longest lime tree walk, and lots of family-friendly adventures in the woodland and discovery centre.
