Leicestershire campsite recommendations

[JumpShip]

We've stayed at eye kettleby a few times over the years but its not cheap and a little in the middle of nowhere so i wonder if you guys had any recommendations please?
Thanks in advance.

Not adult only but we've enjoyed Woodland Waters at Ancaster and Wagtails country park near Grantham. What is now called Nottingham Camping & Caravanning at Cotgrave whilst technically over the border was a good site but now under new ownership

Cotgrave is possibly a little far out but thanks anyway still much appreciated.

We need a site with a toilet/shower block and preferably something within walking distance , be that a pub , shop etc

WE have 2 x T6 forum meet ups a year at Brook meadow. Mention the forum and they are very accommodating. Equally great autumn camp at Rural relaxing. Talk to Caroline she loves us.

Plus the breakfasts are fantastic at Rural Relaxing! Just remember to take your levelling ramps!

Absolutely! we made the mistake of ordering a full English. Ed (my dog) was a happy bunny cos I could not finish it! The sports club directly opposite (literally 50m) welcomes us for drinks the pub in the village is also welcoming but the food is a bit posh! Some great walks out of the site.

Brook meadow is a mile from he pub along a unlit country road but great day walking for dogs etc. Great activity centre next door but not sure about the autumn.

Hmmm...big fat breaky sounds good

Whats access like to these places ? As we're gonna be in our MH not our bus .

One of the lads has a 7m Hymer A class and he got in fine to Rural Relaxing. Home - Rural relaxing.co.uk But it is tight & all grass. It can be a bit boggy further up the field Not sure whether she is still open for vans. Brekky is Saturday and Sunday morning and is a bit of a meeting point for some of the village.

Brook Meadow Gateway to Brook Meadow is huge but quiet with a large fishing lake, woods with both hard and grass standings with hook up. Open all year I think

I've been to a wedding there - it wasn't my kind of thing, but seemed to have all the facilities.
But it is not Leicestershire, even with a vivid imagination. If Melton is half an hour from Leicester, you can add on another 45 minutes to Woodland Waters at least.
