Idyllic gem in the English countryside

This is a superb non electric CL. Countryside views in a peaceful setting. Jane is a very friendly host and extremely helpful. The site is very clean and tidy and Jane points out various places where you can go and sit in the shade on a warm day. Market Harborough is only a few miles away and well worth a visit. Many historic sites to visit around Naseby.

Everything a cl should be

We wanted a fairly local cl to try out some features on our new campervan. Thanks to Buttercup Meadow's excellent online booking system we were able to check availability and book last minute. We were met by the owner, Jane, who kindly opened the locked gate for us (we had already received the code by email) There is a level well mown field with no set pitches so we were able to park next to a hedge giving good shelter from the cool northeasterly. The tap is by the gate into a further field containing an information hut, the elsan point and bins. Another gate gives access to a well fenced dog exercise field. All around the site are pony paddocks and pleasing views. Best of all are the little touches showing the care and interest Jane the owner has in this gem of a site - the herb planter to pick your own m, the welcome sign and, unbelievably, her delicious homemade cup cakes in a gift box. The cl site is on the edge of a pretty and historic village with interesting paths and alleyways to explore. There is a community pub, sadly shut Mondays and Tuesdays when we visited. Across the lane from the site is the village recreation ground with a children's play area, outdoor gym, picnic area and woodland walk - perfect for our dog to work off some energy.

Can’t Complain!

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

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 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

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.

13 night stay

There are many positives with this site starting from the lovely owners who make you feel so welcome. We were presented with 2 cup cakes which we thought was a nice touch. Jane & Andrew have a wealth of knowledge about the local area so we were never stuck for idea's of where to visit. Clipston is lovely village with a good pub for eats & drinks. There are many footpaths around the village so plenty of walks to hand. On site there is a fenced off dog area which our Bella loved. We will return.

Enjoyable week

Nice greeting on arrival. Very well looked after site. Friendly owners, lots of places to visit within half an hour of Buttercup Meadow in Clioston. Great food in the local pub and good doggie facilities. Day narrow boats can be hired from Market Harborough but need to be booked in advance. Thoroughly enjoyable stay. Quiet site.
