Quiet countryside location with small gravelled enclosed area directly outside lounge window & front door, with bench seating. Pleasant walk down lane (not many cars as no through lane) to village & church. Saw horses, hares, herons etc. Local...

Recently re-built barn creating a beautiful airy ground floor annexe which is very spacious for 2 guests. Located on the escarpment of the Vale of Belvoir, Hen House has stunning views for miles. A peaceful location, but only half a mile along a lane or footpath into the village where there is a pub, fish & chip shop, cafe and village shop/newsagent. Ideal for a quiet retreat in the countryside for walking or cycling it offers easy access to the Rutland Water, Nottingham, Leicester or Melton Mowbray
Quiet rural setting with far reaching views. About 1/2 mile out of the centre of the village of Long Clawson. Car is the easiest way to arrive. Once you have unpacked it is a 15 minute walk into the village. The village does have a bus stop to Melton and Bottesford.
