Holiday Cottages in Leicestershire

This historical county, home of the last Plantagenet King of England, Richard III, is where tourism began. With its rolling landscape, perfect for exploring by foot or bike, or its 70 miles of waterways or the vastness of the National Forest, this is a destination where you relax and unwind amongst the great outdoors. As you wander along Leicester's ancient lanes, passing the medieval Guildhall and historic cathedral you will have a taste of the 2000 years of history that surrounds this area. For a more up-to-date activity, why not visit the National Space Centre and explore the universe around us? Discover the beauty of this area from one of our holiday cottages in Leicestershire.
