Can’t Complain!

Buttercup Meadow
Who needs hook-up when you’ve got a solar panel on the roof? We even watched a bit of telly. Margaret Thatcher’s phrase: ‘Let them eat cake!’ took on a new meaning. Nice grassed site with views and a ten minute walk through the village, passing thatched cottages, to the Bull’s Head. Great cask ales and home cooked food - so good we went twice! Fab five mile walk from the CL to Kelmarsh Hall, and a walk from the famous Foxton Locks. Market Harborough is worth visiting too. Superb…

A gem of a site

Buttercup Meadow
What a great little site. A very warm welcome from Jane and Andrew, the homemade cupcakes were a lovely welcoming touch too. If you are happy to be off grid this is a fabulous relaxing site with lots of walks from site and many more nearby just a short drive away. Our dogs were made to feel very welcome and having a secure area for them was a bonus. We will be back.

Gorgeous setting, lovely people

Buttercup Meadow
Buttercup meadow is a gorgeous site in a great setting. Lovely friendly welcome from Jane & our first ever experience of a cake safe with delicious cupcakes 😋 Location is perfect, no hook up or facilities (except for water & cakes) but great secure and flat meadow with a friendly large pub within walking distance with good food & a great selection of beer & real ale so nothing else required. Good walking all around. Looking forward to returning

Very pleasant

Buttercup Meadow
Just what we were looking for, a simple site, peaceful and easy to get to. Booking online was a cinch and felt secure onsite. Very pleasant and tasty surprise was a gift of two cakes from Jane via her son.
