The small market town of Market Bosworth is just a short drive away, home to the Battle of Bosworth, with an excellent visitor centre at the battlefield site. It has many amenities, including small independent shops, pubs and a renowned fish and chip shop, all located around the market square. There are many historic sites and places of interest such as Tutbury Castle, the Old Marina, the Bass Brewery Centre and the Claymills Pumping Station.

    The surroundings are beautiful, peaceful and well kept. And the lodge itself (we've stayed in Oak at the same location too) has everything you need and more. Evenings in the hot tub are the icing on the cake. The owner and his team are on hand but not intrusive and if you're lucky, you'll even get a visit from their dog who is simply divine.

    One of the cleanest lodges we've stayed in and loved the view, the welcome pack, and the comfortable furnishings. The fairy lights and landscaping were lovely to look at too! A great base for exploring Calke Abbey too.
