Ticknall has several flourishing societies that meet regularly including the Garden Club. There is also a Preservation and Historical Society and Art club. All tend to meet in the new attractive Village Hall, which is also the venue for many community events such as the annual 'pudding evening' for charity. The garden at the cottage has been developed over the years from a former rickyard and has been opened several times for the Ticknall Open Gardens events and also under the National Gardens Scheme (Yellow Book). It contains many herbaceous perennials and cottage garden plants, the soil being free draining and slightly alkaline. The village is set within the National Forest with its many tourist attractions such as Conkers and the Forestry Centre at Rosliston. There are lots of places to walk - the grounds of Calke Park (National Trust) are found at the bottom of the garden with easy access to fields and woods.
