Basic CL in a peaceful woodland glade

Leicester Hill Wood
June 2023 for 2 nights hardstanding + EHU. Let ourselves in through the CCTV monitored gate and into a woodland glade. We were welcomed soon after. 1 traditional outside loo with separate basin and cold tap undercover, you could also use for washing up (we didn't). Lovely area and nice walk down country lanes to village with a couple of pubs and also access to Bradgate Park (with it's big, old oak trees, deer, cafe and viewpoint. We used public footpaths to walk between site and Field Head Hotel and back through old woodlands. TV and mobile data were poor.

Three lovely relaxing days

Leicester Hill Wood
Lovely peaceful site. Plenty of space, between pitches. Great walk into the village and into Bradgate Park. In the park you walk amongst the deer, we saw a peacock, egrets and herons. The pub in the village is excellent. Monday to Wednesday they do two meals for the price of one. Our meals were excellent. The houses and gardens in the village are lovely all different and beautifully looked after. There is a lovely church. The directions to the site are spot on. We had a lovely welcome when we arrived, such lovely hosts. A good site if you want a stop over when travelling on the M1

A Hidden Gem

Leicester Hill Wood
This is a beautiful site hidden in amongst woods. On arrival we were met by the owners who showed us to our grass pitch (there are also hard standings). Most usefully two level slabs had been laid on which to site the wheels of the caravan, this meant we only needed to be levelled front to back. The owners also provided attractive tree logs on which to put the jockey wheel and front legs. When we visited, the wood all around was festooned with bluebells and was beautiful. The site itself has a small wash up area, chemical disposal and outside toilet which was a bit basic but adequate. You can walk the short distance into Newton Linford where there are some beautiful houses and have access to Bradgate Country Park. If in the area again we would certainly revisit. Thank you.

An absolutely fantastic site

Leicester Hill Wood
This site is just lovely, very secluded if you want peace and quiet, can't even see the road and you are so close but such a quiet lane. Walks are everywhere, close to bradgate Park which is lovely. Surrounded by trees and wildlife 1 of the best sites we've stayed on, just loved it. Didn't want to leave a glowing review as we may not get on it when we come through again. And to top it all what a lovely and friendly couple that own it In all would highly recommend
