Knaptoft House Farm is family run, established in Leicestershire in 1973. We are situated near to the country houses, castles and gardens are within easy reach; Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground and Vintage Aircraft Museum are five minutes away. Both the farmhouse and The Greenway have comfortable sitting rooms, with wood-burning stoves, and conservatories which catch the afternoon sum. Each includes a wealth of books on tourist information, local interest, and family history research. We have a collection of old family photographs and memorabilia. Accommodation Comfortable beds are a priority. All en suite bedrooms are equipped with new flat screen TV's with freeview, generous hospitality trays and those little extras that make your stay a memorable one. For our business guests, each bedroom has a desk and power point. Free Broadband access. All bathrooms are fully tiled and fitted to the highest standard. A fridge, stocked with fresh milk and cold drinks is located both in the farmhouse and The Greenway. The Greenway is a spacious bungalow farmhouse, set close by in the orchard. There are three ground-floor ensuite bedrooms which have been refurbished with warm autumn colours either twin or 6ft beds, each room with knee-hole desk and power points. Knaptoft House Farm is a working farm with pasture land for our sheep and horses and some newly planted woodlands. There is a range of fish ponds, originally part of the deserted mediaeval village of Knaptoft. They are an easy walk across the fields from the house, although there is poolside parking in dry weather. Fishing Day Tickets. Breakfast is served for both houses in the farmhouse dining room.
