Why stay here ...
Celia and Garry would like to welcome you to Southview CL, set on the Leicestershire border with Northamptonshire you can expect to overlook beautiful countryside views and see regular ariel display from Kites and Buzzards.
Southview is situated on the A4304 about 8 miles from Junction 20 of the M1 and 5 miles from the historic market town of Market Harborough where the old grammar school takes centre stage.
The site is set out over two tiers and has five level 6m wide x 10m long hardstanding pitches, three pitches on the top tier and two on the lower tier, each pitch has its own 16-amp EHU, drinking water and grey waste disposal point. Our CDP is connected to a septic tank and therefor please use Elsan green or similar. Electric is metered and loaded via a pre-pay card system meaning you only pay for the electricity you use. Alternatively go green and use your solar at no cost.
In the next village (1.7 miles) you will find a dog friendly pub, shop and Chinese takeaway
Within a few miles are several good pubs and restaurants.
We are on a local bus route with buses into Market Harborough.
As Market Harborough is on the Midland mainline you can get to London in about one hour and Leicester in about 20 minutes.
Places of interest include:
- Grade 2 listed Foxton Locks home to the longest, steepest staircase flight of locks in Britain, if you enjoy a long walk with a pub or café at the turn around point this can be achieved from site mostly along canal banks and towpaths.
- Market Harborough, the old grammar school in the town centre and close by museum, there are several independent shops and coffee shops as well as the usual chain stores.
- Naseby battlefield is also close by for the history lovers.
- Harrington Aviation Museum
- Bruntingthorpe Aviation Museum
- Rockingham Castle
- Pitsford Resovoir
- Richard the 3rd exhibition in Leicester
- Space Centre
Also available locally are Golf, Fishing, Shooting, Armageddon and Gliding.
