Our family site offers a handful of pitches, all located close to our Brampton Valley Way access point and away from the deep waters. They have their own dedicated toilets and shower room, and are completely fully serviced. The pitch is hard standing, gravel topped to allow for awning pegs to pass through and each pitch is adequate enough to accomodate a large van, awning and vehicle on the hard pitch alone. At the end of the site, there is a turning circle and a chemical disposal point with refuse facilities and fresh water.

Wellington View Pitch

  • Max 2 pets
  • Caravans
  • Motorhomes
  • Campervans
  • Tents
  • Folding caravans
  • Trailer tents
  • RVs
  • Fifth wheels

They are fully serviced with electric hook-up, water and drainage, with a grass fire gap between each pitch.

Our Wellington View site is located overlooking the wonderful countryside, and more immediately our Wellington Fishing Lake. Completed mid 2013, there are 24 equally spaced and sized pitches available for rental for the entire year. Set out in three rows of eight pitches, we have some set close to the toilets and shower blocks for our less abled guests, and some that are a bit more private away from the main entrance road.

Each pitch is hard standing, with gravel planings on the surface to allow for awning pegs, although this surface is a lot harder underneath to allow for a solid base, while the surface settles. They are fully serviced with electric hook-up, water and drainage, with a grass fire gap between each pitch. We recommend storm pegs and a hammer for your awning.

Winter Break

Siddons, Micheal - 08/01/2025

We came for a couple of weeks in December but now will be staying longer. It’s a great location for country walks and close to Market Harborough which is a very pleasant town with much history. The owners are most helpful and have a wonderful cafe/restaurant which serves a delightful breakfast and midday meals. Will definitely come again.

The best value anywhere

Kirk, Kevin - 07/01/2025

Always a friendly welcome with plenty of on site information. Huge, level, hard standing, fully serviced pitches right next to the lake with two fishing swims included! Don't forget your rod licence! Plenty of places to walk the dogs and never overcrowded. Reliable 16A electrical supply, 4G signal, satellite signal, constant water supply and good grey waste access. Only 10 minutes from Market Harborough centre. Excellent fishing any time of year. The owners put a lot of hard work in to keep the site and lake in excellent condition. There is always someone on hand for help and advice if required. There are large heated shower/toilet facilities which are cleaned daily. For us it is 30 minutes from home and we love everything about Waterloo Farm and think the value for money is amazing. Thanks everyone for making each trip so enjoyable.

Santa experience getaway for me, my partner amd 2 young children, it was perfect for what we need and will 100% be returning, thank you for making us feel welcome

Cole, Shane - 25/12/2024

This was our very first getaway in our new to us caravan, we were very nervous of all the things that could go wrong with us being total beginers however it was a perfect first getaway. We stayed here for 2 nights in med december as we had booked a santa/christmas expeirence at the west lodge rural centre and waterloo leisure was only a 15 minute drive away. We could not have asled for a more enjoyable couple of days. The stay at waterloo leisure was perfect and the christmas experiance was amazing. We had our doubts about what could go wrong as we are total beginers to caravaning and this was our first ever getaway and we were traveling with 2 young children, one 4 year old and one 10 week old. We could not fault anythjng with either venue and we will 100% be returning next year. Thank you very much waterloo leisure for making us feel welcome 😊

Great site in a fab location

Lake, Tony - 19/12/2024

We used this site as a first run out in our new motorhome to see how we got on with it, and how our dogs got on with getting there and living in the small space for a night.We found the owners very welcoming and helpful and the pitch had what we needed in terms of electrics and water, and were nice and large for the motorhome plus awning. The facilities were great and very tidy and the food in the cafe looked lovely.There was easy access to Brampton valley way for walking our dogs.

From the first phone call, to arriving, and setting up it was a fabulous experience, thank you. Large hard standing with freedom to park any which way within it. Large WC/shower rooms, two each for men and women - excellent showers! The cafe served an amazing breakfast - I have the Full English, twice!!Most importantly, the owners and staff were brilliant.

First impressions

Messer, Cheryl - 01/12/2024

Well situated for the town of Market Harborough and easy to find off the main road.Very friendly staff. Toilet facilities clean. We would have liked a laundry/a drying room perhaps as we were camping during Storm Bert! Toilet lights were also supposed to be off at night so a late night visit needed a torch and then it was tricky to hold your torch and turn the keypad and also push down the door handle all at the same time!The cafe was a definite hit, although now my husband would like a cooked breakfast every morning!!Went to Foxton Locks which would be idyllic in the spring/summertime. Went to the football ground which was a well organised place. The town had a good range of shops and eating places. We usually like the Wetherspoons for a good meal and so were very pleased to find one.We are hoping to return in the new year when it is warm and dry and experience the old railway line walk for one thing.
