Our family site offers a handful of pitches, all located close to our Brampton Valley Way access point. 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.

Set out in thre 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 entrace road.

These pitches are fully serviced with electric hookup, water, and integrated drainage, and are nestled in close to our log cabins on Waterloo Lake.

We have three pitches on this 2016 addition to the site, available for hire throughout the year. These pitches are fully serviced with electric hookup, water, and integrated drainage, and are nestled in close to our log cabins on Waterloo Lake. Boasting a fantastic vista, peace and tranquility await!

These pitches are designed with motorhomes in mind, and are slightly narrower than our standard Adult Only pitches elsewhere on site. However, if you did want to book this pitch for your caravan you can do this by contacting us directly. Fishing is not included in this pitch price as it is adjacent to our Waterloo Lake for pleasure anglers and match bookings, so remains subject to availability, as matches will take precedent.

Toilet and shower facilities are located nearby, as is the ELSAN point.

A returning fisherman and his wife

Excellent fishing. The view from the verandah is absolutely beautiful. The lodge is comfortable but the cupboards are very high. Beer and wine glasses would be a plusThe letting of the Green Man would be an advantage. The access driveway to the cafe would benefit from attention. There are a lot of potholes. The entrance from the main road would benefit from attention.This is our fourth time in Barn Owl Lodge. We love the fishing and the view. It is so peaceful. A great break at a good price with friendly staff..

Great location for visiting Market Harborough

Waterloo Farm Leisure is in a great location for visiting Market Harborough and Oxenden Tunnels and there is a path just off the park itself. Dog friendly, quiet with lovely views. Tearoom sells lovely food and staff are very friendly and helpful, just a shame that you can't take dogs in and it wasn't the weather to be sitting outside. Facilities are a little dated but shower was lovely and warm. Fishing lakes on the park itself if you are into fishing. Overall we had a great weekend away and would return

Very Friendly Staff

Holland, Susan - 03/05/2024

Good access off main road. Facilities basic but very clean. Sloping pitches on Wellington View, can’t speak for the rest of the campsite. Staff lovely. Good food in the cafe up till 4pm. Our group booked for an evening meal but had to share the cost per person for renting the room on top of the price for the meal!

Basic but pleasant site

Folsom-Harrison, Pam - 02/05/2024

There were 30 vehicles on site but the shower/toilet facility consisted of only two men's and two ladies showers with a toilet in the same enormous room. I had to get up at 7 am to ensure I got a shower as I was meeting up with friends at 10 am. The shower was clean and incredibly spacious - larger than most family bathrooms. Smaller rooms and more would be better. We were told the walk into town was 30 minutes. We tested the walk the day before and found it an hour's walk. Walked back in 50 minutes because we knew a faster way to exit the town. If you are under 40 years old, I would say you could do it in 40 minutes. However everybody on site were seniors. If we had not been misled, we would have taken our bicycles with us. The site is about half a mile from the road so very quiet. However very little around if you want a pub etc. There is a cafe on site that serves meals but the place closes at 3.30 pm. I noted steak dinners were £26. Site Expensive.
