What customers say
This small, well-kept campsite offers a peaceful rural retreat with excellent, clean shepherd's hut facilities, including hot showers.

A site to behold
Electric gravel motorhome pitch
Liked Lovely well kept small site and easy to find straight off the A47. Good simple communication from owner and easy check in and out. So quiet at night in a safe secure location. Good quality pitch (No.5). Cute shepherds hut for toilets, showers and wash up. All spotlessly clean. Excellent wifi. Took a circular walk taking in Ingarsby medieval village. Muddy but fun. You must visit the Rose & Crown. Really friendly owners and staff. The food was quality with service to match. 3 screens showed cricket, football and rugby. Kids welcome. 30 minute drive to Rutland Water main csr park. All in all, Fox's Furrow is a superb site. Definitely recommend.
Disliked Nothing. All good.

We Found the Furrow a First Class Facility
Electric gravel motorhome pitch
Liked The quiet rural setting and excellent bespoke facilities create the perfect atmosphere for a relaxed break
We loved the breakfast box and its contents, delivered courtesy of the Psychedelic Squirrel
Dry standings and solid access drive meant that midwinter mud wasn’t much of an issue
Disliked As stated elsewhere wattage of electric appliances may be a factor to consider

Peaceful, relaxed and clean.
Electric gravel motorhome pitch
Liked We only stayed one night and it’s a shame our weekend plans meant it wasn’t longer.
The site was quiet and peaceful.
Checking in and out was simple, with a few text messages with the owner.
Despite the recent rain meaning mud was everywhere, all the facilities were clean and tidy.
The washing up station had a large sink and the water was piping hot, making washing up so much easier than in our tiny van sink.
Disliked Nothing.
