The smell of a proper farmhouse breakfast drifts up the stairs before you've even opened your eyes — that's the kind of place this is.
Tucked into the Leicestershire countryside near Melton Mowbray, Shoby Lodge suits couples after a proper getaway, walkers exploring the Vale of Belvoir, and anyone chasing the pork pie trail without the faff of a tent. There's B&B comfort in the farmhouse itself and a camping pod if you want something a bit closer to the ground — best to ask ahead if you're bringing the dog, as they handle it case by case.
It's a working farm setting, so expect genuine country quiet and the kind of hosts who actually live here. Campfires are a maybe — worth checking when you arrive. Open all year, which means autumn mist over the fields or a summer evening with nothing but birdsong. Not a facility-packed site, just honest rural lodgings with a bit of flexibility and a cracking breakfast to start your day.
