Location The land lies equidistant between the picturesque villages of Branston and Eaton in the Vale of Belvoir, accessed via a country lane that provides excellent hacking directly from the land.
Branston is a charming linear ironstone village, home to the historic Wheel Inn public house and situated just a stone's throw from the Knipton Reservoir, a popular spot for countryside walks.
Eaton is a particularly unspoilt hillside village characterized by its predominantly stone and brick cottages, retaining much of its traditional rural character. The village benefits from a well-maintained village hall and a generous community park, providing a focal point for local residents.
Both villages offer peaceful, rural settings with strong equestrian communities and are conveniently positioned with easy access to a number of centres such as Melton Mowbray and Grantham.
