Farnsfield is a pleasant rural village in the district of Newark and Sherwood, Nottinghamshire, England, sitting amid rolling farmland and within easy reach of Sherwood Forest. It has a strong village feel with a handful of shops, pubs and community facilities, a lively programme of local clubs and sports teams, and a compact historic core that reflects its long agricultural past.

The village attracts people who commute to nearby towns such as Nottingham and Newark while enjoying country life, and the local economy is a mix of farming, small businesses and services. Annual events and fĂȘtes, conservation-minded residents and a scattering of listed buildings make it a sociable spot with a quieter pace than the surrounding urban centres.
