The centre of Leicester is only about a 20-minute drive from Fox’s Furrow – and yet this site’s immediate surroundings are properly peaceful and rural, with fields and natural countryside views all around. The beauty of all this, of course, is that you can have a nicely varied stay here if you like, perhaps pedalling along National Cycle Route 63 one day (it’s about a mile away) and then heading into the city to visit the National Space Centre the next. There’s a bus stop just under a mile away in the village of Houghton on the Hill if you’d rather travel by public transport. Also in the village are a couple of pubs, a village shop, a pharmacy and a fish and chip shop – all of it handily a short walk away across the fields (or a couple of minutes in the car). Getting in, out and all around should be straightforward here as the site is about a quarter of a mile from the A47; there’s no hint of the main road while on site, though, as the place has a very natural feel to it and is surrounded by a tree belt that provides plenty of privacy as well as acting as a home to local wildlife. In keeping with this rural setting, facilities have been kept to a minimum here – the essentials are covered, however, with a wifi connection, a washing-up area and toilet/shower facilities housed in a very stylishly decorated classic shepherd’s hut.

Qué opinan los clientes

Este es un sitio rural tranquilo y bien mantenido, elogiado por sus excelentes, limpias y peculiares instalaciones de baño. Los propietarios son amables y serviciales. Si bien la mayoría disfrutó del entorno, algunos mencionaron terrenos inclinados, estrechez para avances y problemas ocasionales con la conexión eléctrica.

Parcela de gravilla con electricidad para autocaravana

Me gustó What a wonderful place to stay. The facilities are fantastic, particularly the toilets and showers. The hosts were quick to respond to our queries and requests. Peaceful and yet close enough to walk to the nearest village. We will definitely return.

No me gustó Difficult to pitch our awning as the hard standing was raised from the grass.

Me gustó This is a stunning site. Remote and peaceful setting and even though pitches are quite close together and most of them were booked up it never felt crowded. The showers are incredible! Best I've ever found on a campsite! The micro shop was a lovely touch and well stocked. Would definitely recommend.

Me gustó O Toilets and showers excellent - very clean and showers were very powerful. Peaceful site though I’m not sure this would be the case if it was full. Nicely landscaped tent pitches. Good dog walk. Pretty at night with strings of lights.
O Owners very responsive to texts - they delivered a hose pipe within minutes so that we could fill our onboard water tank. I mentioned I had trouble closing the door to the ladies and the next time I used the facilities it had been fixed.
O The walk to Houghton across the fields took us an hour (our sense of direction isn’t the best even with instructions 😘) The Old Black Horse serves lovey food at reasonable prices, staff are very friendly and dogs are welcome in the Snug. A lovely man in St Catherine’s Church let us use their loo and was very happy to share the history of the 800 year old church with us. We chose to stick to the main road (A47) on the way back (there is a good footpath to Galsby Lane) which was a lot quicker.

No me gustó O Enclosed by trees so no view unless you go to the high ground or leave site
O Pitches are very narrow and not all have a large enough grassed area to put up an awning. The gravel on most pitches is enclosed in wooden planks which are higher than the grass which can make the transition from the van to the grass quite tricky.
O There was an issue with wasps during our stay which Glenn was aware of and he indicated that it may be because of the bins. Luckily we have bug blinds on the windows so we were able to open the windows to keep the van cool. Had we not had these it would have been a nightmare!The bins are at the side of the amenities hut and you have to walk past them to get to the ladies toilet. Maybe moving the bins to the entrance/exit which is common practise at a lot of the sites we visit would be better.

Me gustó Small site

Walks close by
Lovely woodland close by
Pretty, well stocked on site shop
The land owner who came and said hi (very friendly)
Decor of the bathrooms
Good strong shower
Recycling bins available

No me gustó One of the toilet/shower locks was jammed completely - so everyone was using the other toilet/shower cubicle. That shower in there clearly had a blocked drain which was leading to flooding of the cubicle with every use - not nice for the next person. It was like that throughout our stay.
No ventilation in the toilet/shower cubicles = very hot little rooms!
This is a really small point and perhaps no one else will think this or feed back but - the ladies toilet is around the back and then up the stairs of the shower/toilet cubicles and the men's toilet. Personal preference would be that the ladies toilet was the one easiest to get to - otherwise we are the ones walking around the back when it's dark.
Despite the site asking for no music from people staying, there was at times music playing quite loudly from other pitches - suppose you can get that anywhere and isn't the fault of the site itself.
Some of the pitches had more grass area than others and some were pretty uneven. We got our awning out but had no room to spare either side.
Overall - nice campsite - the owners are clearly trying hard. Would we come back? Possibly not, given how much choice there is around.

Del administrador: Hi Alison, thank you very much for your positive feedback about our site. We are very sorry to hear that you had some troubles during your stay. The locks have all been adjusted on the shower rooms and the shower traps have all been cleared. Thank you again for staying.

Excellent site with everything we needed.

Me gustó It was very welcoming, we had a message from Saffron and Glenn with all the instructions before arrival with all our check in instructions. Site is very pretty, especially at night with fairy lights lining the path from the road to the pitches. Toilets and showers were clean and easily accessible. They have a new on-site shop which is really cute. Will return with our children.

Lugares de interés

Getting out to see more of your rural surroundings should be easy enough here, as there are some great walks in the vicinity, along with those bike rides on National Cycle Route 63. Rutland Water (20 minutes’ drive) is another good place for a walk or a bike ride (there’s a path that goes all the way round the lake), and you can also play golf, try your hand at sailing or bounce across the inflatable aqua park. If the kids are keen to meet cute animals, head along to Windmill Farm Park (15 minutes) for indoor and outdoor animals, play areas and a café. Bird on the Hand Falconry Experiences (15 minutes) makes a great day out for those keen to get up close to the big birds. Over in Leicester (20 minutes) there are plenty of options for a day out (especially if you need rainy-day activities) – the city is home to the National Space Centre as well as the Retro Computer Museum and King Richard III Visitor Centre.
