The East Midlands Designer Outlet formerly known as McArthur Glen is located next to M1 junction…read more28, near to Sutton-in-Ashfield. It's a reasonably-sized shopping centre, which is partly under cover and geared towards stores which offer predominantly discounted goods (though the shops are somewhat more upmarket than Poundstretcher et al). There is plenty of car parking, but public transport options are slightly limited due to the out-of-town location. Facilities are very good and the overall impression is of a well-run centre that is not overwhelming in terms of size. There is a varied mix of stores, with a bias towards clothes and gift shops. Overall, an excellent place to head for if shopping for a birthday or Christmas, though perhaps not quite large enough for a full-on Saturday shopping session!

Thye get the off good thing in, and its worth a look around if you're in mansfield, but they do stock some funny clothes! the other time me and my friends went in there was 10 identical dark purple waistcoats in XXL.

Sadly this is a pretty poor effort from Macarthur Glen. Unlike some they own, this is very small,…read moreand the shop selection is not that great either. I like the Sole Trader outlet store, but thats about it. Its a forgottable place, with no real character or purpose. The Lakeside outlet in Doncaster is sadly just as bad, so this is the best in the area - but thats not saying much. It really needs a large scale expansion, as its location and premise is great - its just not been done very well. Time for a refurb and expansion if that option is available to them.

This is quite small compared to some of the others. It has a small selection of shops but I can t…read moresay I find myself going here much. Most of the stores like ot think they are designer shops, and the prices reflect this. It is also situated quite far away from the town center so it is not possible to get here without a car, or it i very awkward to say the least. My opinion - stick to the town center and dont bother!

B&M Bargains is a bright, well-laid out discount store. The staff are generally friendly and…read morehelpful, without being overbearing. They have plenty of variety in stock, including a fantastic range of discounted brand name food. They also stock items such as bread and milk, so you could effectively do your food shopping there, barring any frozen goods. The toy section is laid out in brand named categories, making it easy to see what they have for different age categories. B&M also stocks a good range of homeware items and was very quick to change the seasonal stock. A more upmarket version of the local Home Bargains store, with the same value for money prices.

Camille has an excellent range of lingerie to suit everyone. From hold 'em in knickers and tights,…read moreto sexy cami's and underwear, to comfy PJ's. The prices are very affordable, and they regularly have special offers on, such as 'Everything Under £10' and have half price rails. The staff are helpful and pleasant, and the shelves are well stocked. The shop is located within the East Midlands Designer Outlet, so you probably wouldn't go just to Camille, but its worth popping in if you are shopping there anyway. They have regular stock changes so its not always the same stuff if you want to browse.
