About Leicestershire

Rolling countryside meets proper village life in this corner of Leicestershire, where the M69 hasn't quite spoiled the rural feel. The area around Cosby and surrounding villages offers that rare thing - genuine peace without being miles from anywhere useful.

Victory Park provides a proper green lung for families, while golfers get their fix at Cosby Golf Club. It's not flashy, but the course does what it says on the tin. The Pickering Road recreational area gives dog walkers and joggers somewhere decent to stretch their legs, though don't expect mountain views.

What strikes you most is how quiet the lanes stay, even midweek. Whetstone Gorse offers lovely walks when the weather's decent, and the war memorial at Dunton Bassett reminds you of the area's deeper history. Cosby Methodist Church anchors the village centre, though the high street won't win any beauty contests.

Leicester sits just 10 miles northeast if you need proper shops or nightlife, while the M1 and M69 make this surprisingly well-connected for a rural spot. The surrounding farmland stretches for miles - classic English countryside that photographers love but locals take for granted.

Staying at one of the nearby caravan parks makes perfect sense here. You're close enough to Leicester for day trips but far enough out to actually hear birdsong. Holly Farm Fishery appeals to anglers, while Mallory Meadows offers those trendy roundhouses everyone's talking about. Several sites cater to tourers, giving you flexibility to explore the Leicestershire countryside at your own pace without the hassle of city parking.
