The kettle clicks off in a proper guest-house kitchen, and through the window you can see the gentle roll of Charnwood's wooded hills catching the morning light.
This is a guest house with camping pods tucked into the grounds — ideal for couples wanting a bit more shelter than canvas, families testing the waters before committing to full camping, or anyone who fancies a hybrid trip with a real bed as backup. It's open year-round, so you can tuck in during the shoulder seasons when the Leicestershire countryside goes quiet and golden. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking when you book if you're bringing one along.
Facilities aren't spelled out in detail, so expect guest-house simplicity rather than full campsite infrastructure — check what's included when you arrive, including whether campfires are allowed. The vibe leans relaxed and low-key, more about having a base than being onsite all day. Anglers take note: New Barn Farm Angling Centre and Town Parks Fishing are both within easy reach if you fancy a morning by the water.
