Steph's Swim School

If you're staying at one of the caravan parks around Lutterworth and need to keep the kids occupied during the school holidays, Steph's Swim School is worth knowing about. It's a local swimming facility that caters to learners and families looking for proper tuition rather than just a splash about.

The school offers swimming lessons, which is handy if you've got children at various stages - from absolute beginners who are nervous around water to those working on their strokes. The instructors know what they're doing, and there's something reassuring about a dedicated swim school versus a leisure centre where you're queuing between lengths swimmers and aqua aerobics classes.

Worth a visit if swimming tuition is on your agenda for the holiday. Lutterworth itself is a reasonable market town if you need supplies or a coffee afterwards. The surrounding parks - Rosemarie, Stanford Hall, Manor Farm - are all within a few miles, so it's convenient if you're based locally and want a structured activity rather than another "something to do" scramble. Just check ahead for lesson times and whether you need to book in advance, as independent swim schools can be particular about numbers and schedules.
