Kilworth Caravan Park, where we stayed over Easter. This site
is just west of North Kilworth in Leicestershire near Lutterworth. We used it mainly
as a base for visiting family in Coventry and Birmingham otherwise we probably wouldn't
have considered spending our Easter holiday in Leicestershire (nothing against the
county but it's doesn't sound very inspiring!).
In actual fact we were pleasantly surprised. The site overlooks a fishing lake and
was very peaceful (until we came along with our two year old twins, that is -
I know a little while ago some CLIC members were asking about fishing at caravan
sites and this site would be perfect. You could pitch up and set up your fishing
gear a few yards away and pop back for a cup of tea anytime.
The site is near to Foxton
Canal Locks which, I believe, are ten locks all next to each other so you can watch
the boats struggling to go up or down the canal. Also, Bosworth Battlefield is nearby
and Althorp not too far away. Unfortunately we didn't have time to visit any of these
because of visiting relatives but we did visit Coombe Abbey near Coventry which is
a country park I would recommend to anyone staying in the area.
There are not many
facilities, only toilets and showers, but the wardens were very pleasant. And the
local pub in North Kilworth were offering to transport you to the pub and back for
a meal which could have been quite useful.
