Holiday Cottages in Leicestershire

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.
