A Real Gem
Booked this site at short notice as we fancied a couple of nights away and its only about 45 minutes from our house. We were not sure what to expect but found a real gem of a place. The sight is easy to get to as most of the roads are wide enough to pass with care. The site is accessed through the main entrance to the Windmill Tea rooms. Turn sharp left as soon as you pass through the gates and then drive down to the field. You will pass the water and waste points as you do. There is a space by the hedge as you enter the field, the other spaces are along the top of the field. The owners, who are very friendly and helpful will put an electric lead out for you if you are not near an EHU. The top of the field is reasonably level but then drops off so levelling blocks are a must.
The view from the field is lovely and looks over towards the Vale of Belvoir. At the bottom of the field is an old railway line which I think was Wymondham Junction. Unfortunatley you cannot walk along it. On site there are several very interesting shops and a very good tea room, run by Sarah-Jane, which serves homemade food at sensible prices. There is also a stonemason on site, Neil, who is very interesting to talk to and also James the Plantsman. Meton Mobray is not far and worth a visit, market day is Tuesday but the car park charges double then. Good way to encourage shoppers, not. In all a 5 star CL in our opinion and a place that we shall be returning to I am sure.
