Liked: A fully serviced pitch is so much better than having to break out the aquaroll and wastemaster. You're treated to some beautiful sunsets. The facilities block is small but very well equipped with 2 unisex bathrooms containing a shower toilet and basin and a pot washing sink and a washing machine and tumble dryer. It's finished to a high standard in a log cabin style and immaculate. The alpacas are very cute. The 4g signal is good as is the site's own wifi, and you can get a tv signal. East Leake village is easily walkable and has all you might need in the way of shops, restaurants, pubs and takeaways.
Disliked: Not personally keen on the blue slate pathway to the facilities block as it's a bit rough to walk on in sandles. The site is on the final approach to East Midlands airport so you will have planes coming over which didn't bother us. I wore earplugs at night and wasn't disturbed.

Liked: Freindly welcome, well organised reception. P&Q In nature. Exceptionally clean and tidy site and facilities. Dogs exercise field is very big, best dog walking facility yet. Yes it was muddy but that's due to the weather we have had. Lovely to let her off the lead and run free safely. Close to multiple pubs.
Disliked: Drive full of potholes. Building work adjoined to site. But didn't bother us as it was a BH. WiFi kept dropping out.

FHU grass campsite
Liked: Nice site, quite, excellent pub in village. Really nice toilets. Site owner nice and helpful, wants to keep site nice.
Disliked: Don't think there's enough toilets on site. Uneven ground and sort of slate gravel going to toilets, not suitable for disabled. We was on grass pitches which was water logged, not owners fault. But helped us off, no problem.

Liked: Location was on very quiet farm land, & the horses and alpacas were lovely around the site! The toilet/showers are wonderful, spacious, clean & quite luxuriously appointed! It's well situated next to lovely villages, with great access to many towns & cities in East Midlands. We would happily have stayed longer, & were quite sorry to leave.
Disliked: Not a lot to add negatively, - just a few minor points: The reception/welcome was informative, but wasn't very cheery - quite coldly perfuntuary, short & businesslike. The road to the pitches is also in poor condition - heavily potholed. Our pitch location and size was great, although it sloped down away from the drain at the top/back of the pitch, so it's hard to use use the serviced pitch drain, but this is a minor detail.
