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.

Walking and cycling around Clipston

We spent 3 nights here in June. Jane and Andrew were very welcoming, helpful and easy to contact. We wanted a relaxing few days walking and cycling and Andrew gave us some excellent advice for sites in the area. We cycled to Market Harborough and up through Foxton locks to see the boat lift. We also walked around sites of the Naseby battle. We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet and will look forward to returning. It is also ideally located next to the picturesque village with its very own pub. This was exactly what we look for in a CL.

A lovely CL with a loely host :)

Easy to find on the road into Clipston from the A508. The site is well maintained with level pitches and nicely cut grass. We parked parallel to the road close to the water point. Lovely views of the fields and hills so lots of things to spot. Although just off the road into the village the site was very quiet as not many cars seem to use the road. The lady who owns the site, Jane Austin, was there to greet us and we she gave us a couple of delicious cup cakes along with a walking map of the area. The weather was very hot so all our good intentions of walking went out the window and we sat and chilled instead. The tv reception was good and although there was no electric hook up the open site meant the solar panel on the van kept the leisure battery topped up nicely. We will definitely go back again so we can check out the walks, cycling and the local village pub :)

Great new addition to the network

Just got back after a five night stay at Buttercup Meadows in late May. Whilst this is an off-grid site that just provides the water and chem. point etc this really is a lot more than just a field. The site is well organised and maintained with a "chill out area" next to the brook and a dedicated area for dog exercise. All set in some lovely countryside just on the outskirts of the quiet Clipston village. As usual I've made a short film of the site which can describe it better than I can. https://youtu.be/f2CAtgC1xr0 Just one note about the approach we accidentally turned off the A508 one junction early (just before Kelmarsh hall). This brought us through the village of Clipston rather than the longer route that avoids the village. Both are passable with a caravan and the route we took makes the turn into the site easier as we were on the opposite side of the road. It's probably best to follow the recommended route and just make sure you swing wide when turning in but don't panic if you "accidentally" take the prior turning like we did.

Peaceful site

This is a quiet field surrounded by countryside with plenty of room to spread out. Handy dog walk area and short walk to local pub. Warm welcome from the owner.

A lovely and tranquil site

Jane was very welcoming and showed me where everything was, including a lovely place to sit and relax by the small river which was idyllic in the warm afternoon sun after a long journey. The site is very peaceful, and I would definitely come back to stay. Highly recommend.

A beautiful peaceful site

We were welcomed to this lovely site on a beautiful sunny evening. We tracked the owners hot air balloon as it passed overhead and we had a very enjoyable stay. I strongly recommend this site.
