Top Quality CL

We have just returned from a 5 night stay at Southview CL which we can easily describe as a Top Quality CL . We had only booked it to attend a Speedway event in Leicester ( which got rained off !!!!) but so glad we found it ..... All pitches are hardstanding and have excellent views and it was a delight to see the Alpacas in the field immediately next to us . The CL has basic facilities ( no toilet / shower) which is perfect for us, and the facilities that are provided are excellent . ( EHU / Elsan etc ) Price was £20 per night and EHU was charged separately by meter readings. We particularly enjoyed our visits to the local town of Market Harborough and walks along the canal at nearby Foxton Locks . Garry the owner, is so friendly and full of information also . Whilst we found this site accidentally, we are really pleased and will be returning .

Best yet

est yet South View This has got to be the best site we've stayed on so far. The pitches were amazingly level, everything we needed plus peace and quiet. Garry was so welcoming and come and introduced himself we were arrived. Electric was payment on departure and was so much less than I thought it would be. On departure Garry come to read the meter and was very happy to chat and tell us all about the job he had get everything done to such a fantastic level for a CL site, we can't have asked for more will definitely be going back. Looking forward to seeing the alpacas again.

Great site

Well done Gary for your site Just returned from a long weekend at this site and will be definitely returning So easy to find from the motorway and excellent access , on arrival Gary came to see us and gave us all the information we needed . The pitches are reasonably level and large and flat with water, electric and drains , only slight criticism is the hardcore used is a bit rough , not too bad though. Lots to see in the area and beautiful area and scenery around , well worth the visit Will be back soon

Excellent CL Site

Easy to find with excellent access, immaculate with great views from every pitch which are all hard standing and level with Electric hook up, Fresh Water & Waste water to each pitch, which are a generous size. Garry and Celia are great hosts and there if you need them. Lots to do in the area so great for a short stay or overnighter… or longer, and very good value. A very good CL.

If Carlsberg did CLs………

We’ve been on the lookout for a weekend bolt hole, the kind of place you’d normally drive miles to find, with fabulous views, peace and quiet and with friendly, welcoming people - so to come across Southview on our doorstep has been a real boon. The entrance to the CL is easily accessible for even the largest of units and all 5 pitches have wonderful views across fields and the valley below and beyond towards Market Harborough, and all are hard standing with their own water tap, drain and metered electricity (which in this day and age was incredibly fairly priced). Owner Garry is an absolute gent and maintains the site immaculately. We spent the weekend watching Red Kites, dining at a fabulous local pub recommended by Garry and just enjoying the peace and views. Like the header says, if Carlsberg did CLs………

a hidden gem

We have just used this CL twice in the last week, on the way out and back from the Malvern's, as it is a central point in the country for us. This is a beautiful site and certainly warrants a longer stay. Good size pitches, with all the amenities. The views are amazing, looking out over the hills at the back. Lovely to hear the church bells ringing as this has been lost in many villages, including our own, giving you a true village feel. Very central to loads of places to visit with good easy access to the site, and easy access onto the site. Garry was very welcoming and hospitable, even setting up our electric on our chosen pitch for our return visit, so that we could just arrive and hook up. Don't overlook this CL, its well worth a visit, you wont be disappointed. We will certainly return in the near future. Thank you - Beagles on Wheels.

This is why we stay at CL sites

From arrival on site, Garry was there to meet and great us. Excellent layout with first class service pitches nicely spaced. Beautiful panoramic views from every pitch. Metered electric hook-up which is only right in the current climate. Local walks and great foodie places to eat nearby. Make sure to check with Garry which places are good to eat at. You won't be disappointed and neither were we. Thanks Garry for making my 60th a memorable stay! David & Rachel

Perfect CL!

What a perfect CL! The views are stunning over the valley and there is plenty of space for all the pitches to appreciate the view. Very peaceful, and Gary was super welcoming and had lots of useful local advice. Facilities are spotless and Gary is very fair with the meter for the electric. Foxton Locks is walkable (!!) but you can easily park there too and is a must-visit. Market Harborough is also a lovely town to explore. Wish we were staying longer but will definitely return. Thank you.

A Super Pitch for the price of a CL!

Lovely and quiet CL site with good sized level hard standing pitches supplied with individual: electric supply, water tap and grey waste drain. Great views across the valley with nice sunrises on a clear day. Garry was there to meet met me on arrival and was very accommodating especially over the late change of arrival day due to a member of the family being in hospital. The site is in a lovely part of the country with the up market centres of: Market Harborough (10 minutes drive), Oundle, Stamford, Uppingham and Oakham (30-40 minutes drive) all within easy reach. We will be staying here again.

Gem of a site (it's actually level)

We spent a week at Southview in September, thoroughly enjoyed the views and the peace and quiet. The pitches are actually level, easy to hook up water to the tap at each pitch. I mention this only because too many sites we visit that is not true. We had a strong 5G signal so I was able to watch the Rugby World Cup easily. The area around this site is just beautiful, Foxton Locks nearby acted as our walking base with a couple of great pubs. We walked there in 90 minutes. Gary was super friendly and marked ours and my brother-in-laws pitches so we were next to each other, in advance of us arriving. He recommended a couple of local dog-friendly pubs. The Red Lion nearby gets my vote for Pie-Tuesdays. The ease of emptying the loo It's always a good sign of how good a site is - here it is perfect. This is our new base for this area, which we intend to spend a lot more time exploring thanks to Southview.
