Why stay here ...

Set in the heart of rural Leicestershire, surrounded by tranquil green fields with quick access to the charming hamlet of Dadlington and nearby historic town Market Bosworth, Dadlington House Farm offers the idyllic country setting for your next stay.

Accessed down a long private drive with secure gated access, the site provides sizable pitches in 2.5 acres of manicured field, nestled within a larger, 60-acre retired farm. The pitches are level, lawned and provide 16 amp electric, direct water hook-ups, as well as grey waste disposal per pitch. The generous pitches also offer significant privacy, with a 25 metre distance between neighboring pitches, providing ample space for awnings.

The site offers immediate access to public footpaths, meandering country lanes and local canalways, as well as a plethora of fantastic local attractions and amenities. Take a leisurely walk to the local highly recommended restaurant and pub, The Dog and Hedgehog. Or take the short drive to nearby Market Bosworth which boasts an award-winning fish and chip shop, excellent restaurants, takeaways and traditional pubs. At the heart of the town is a small market square where a monthly farmers market is held, or wander through the local park, surrounding streets filled with attractive thatched cottages and Georgian properties.

Hop on a steam train at Shenton Station and enjoy the nostalgia of a bygone era. Do you enjoy watersports? Try your hand at sailing or canoeing at Market Bosworth Water Park. Set adjacent to the water park are also several Carp pools which provide the more serious angler with a quiet location dedicated to fishing. If you enjoy a longer country walk why not take advantage of Dadlington House Farm's excellent location and join the Bosworth Battlefield walk, with panoramic views of the countryside before stopping off at the Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre along the way. Richard III, the last king of the House of York was killed in the battle which took place here and Henry Tudor was crowned the first king of the Tudor dynasty, a major turning point in English history.

WONDERFUL

Dadlington House Farm
A fabulous site which provided every amenity that a visitor could hope for. In a very large field, there are adequately spaced pitches each with electric, water and wastewater points on each pitch. The drive to the site was unique experience with a humpback bridge over the Canal and a delightful floral entrance. We were greeted by Trish (and Stan later) and given a 'briefing' of local places to go and pubs/restaurants to visit. A meal at the Dog and Hedgehog, a short walk up the road, should not be missed, great food, wonderful service and a surprising panoramic view over the local landscape. A walk down the canal, access from the drive to the site, is a peaceful pleasure for sunny days. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely return .

Absolutely delightful

Dadlington House Farm
Booked for 5 nights on this site and for 4 of them we were the only unit. The site is a large flat, well kept and level field with your own water and waste points. It is approached through a security gate and up a long drive. well set back from the road and very quiet. Nice walks nearby, especially along the canal. 5 minute walk to a lovely pub/restaurant, The Dog and Hedgehog. We were met by Trish, the owner, on arrival and both her and her husband were very friendly. It is a site I will definitely go back to.

Wasn't disappointed. Great welcome from Trish. Secure gated site well away from road. Beautifully kept fully serviced pitches on a spacious site. Canal walks & places of unrest nearby. We'll definitely book again if we're in the area ❤❤❤

Idyllic, quiet and restful location

Dadlington House Farm
First trip out with the caravan since March lockdown and needed a location to visit family and we weren't disappointed - warm welcome from Trish and husband Stan who was beavering away cutting out brambles from the roadside hedgerow. Site was gently sloping with the lower section being a flat field and all were fully serviced pitches.Thoughtfully laid out with loads of space between pitches, beautifully peaceful and quiet. Rubbish disposal point and WC disposal very good and tidy. Wonderful walks along the Ashby Canal with plenty of narrow boat activity and plenty to do in area, any shopping required was a short distance away. Extremely secure site with fully gated entrance - owners on hand if needed. We will definitely be back again very soon and highly recommend this site. All your hard work setting up and maintaining the area is much appreciated. Mike and AnnMarie

Fantastic CL

Dadlington House Farm
Fantastic, peaceful, tranquil site accessed through a long gated drive. Pitches are very well spread in a large flat field and all pitches are fully serviced. This is by far the best laid out CL we have visited and truly shows how good a site can be. Truly blissful weekend stay. The owners of many CLs should pay a visit for inspiration. Steve and Janet
