  • Small well-maintained site in the scenic Leicestershire countryside
  • Within 20 minutes' drive of Eye Brook Reservoir and Rutland Water
  • Dog-friendly site two miles from the nearest pub
Make yourself comfortable and soak up rural views over Leistershire's Welland Valley at Hidden Hideaway, a small-scale site two miles from the village of Hallaton. Hidden away (as the name suggests) in a spacious and sheltered camping field, these pitches are well-placed for idle or active breaks in Central England's pretty countryside. Staying here puts a good number of footpaths within easy reach, with a few rights of way directly accessible from the site. The pride and joy of Hidden Hideaway has to be the site's very well-maintained toilet and shower block (see the photos for a more detailed inspection). Other handy amenities are available here, including a nifty chemical disposal and grey water point. Well-behaved dogs are very welcome on site, but please make sure that they're on a lead at all times when out and about and kept outside of the facilities block. Hallaton's village pub (which is also dog-friendly) is a couple of miles away if you're on the hunt for relaxed drinks or a meal out, while for a supermarket shop you're best off heading to the several options available in Market Harborough (20 minutes' drive).

Unpowered grass site

Liked: Small well kept site with large pitches. Friendly helpful owner. Fire pits for hire and logs sold and delivered to your pitch. Good shower / toilet rooms regularly cleaned. Clean and tidy wash up area with a fridge. Plenty of hot water. Nice little play area for younger children and grassy area set aside for football etc. lovely walks possible from the site but as we visited on a swelteringly hot weekend we opted instead to stay close and relax on site.

Local attractions

It's water, water everywhere at Hidden Hideaway – there's trout fishing and walking at Eye Brook Reservoir (20 minutes' drive), historic towpaths and waterside pubs at Foxton Locks (15 minutes), a big lake, birdwatching and waterpark at Rutland Water (20 minutes) and, for some indoor exercise, a public swimming pool in nearby Market Harborough (20 minutes). For a mix of meals out, bargain hunting and smart independent shops, head to nearby market towns like Market Harborough, Uppingham (20 minutes) or Oakham (30 minutes), where you can also take the kids for animal-themed jaunts at Rutland Farm Park. The very special town of Stamford (35 minutes) over in Lincolnshire also warrants a day trip or two, especially if you're a fan of Georgian architecture. If you're on holiday with the kids, they'll likely appreciate visits to the National Space Centre in Leicester (45 minutes), Twycross Zoo (an hour and 10 minutes) or Drayton Manor Theme Park (an hour and 10 minutes). And for something more serene and sedate? The graceful gardens around Burghley House (45 minutes) and Belton House (an hour) will take care of that.
