Foxton Locks Lodges is an idyllic retreat tucked away in the heart of rural Leicestershire.

Our two luxurious log cabins, finished to the highest of standards, provide the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life. You'll find a peaceful haven from which you can explore the glorious surrounding countryside and numerous local gems, including the famous Foxton Locks.

Our stunning log cabins are available to rent all year round for short breaks and summer and winter holidays, and are the perfect alternative to holiday cottages, combining excellent facilities, comfort and luxury with the tranquility and beauty of our local countryside. Market Harborough is just a five-minute car journey away, while the historic market towns of Oakham and Uppingham are just 20 minutes away.

We have a two-bedroom lodge (sleeps six with sofa bed) and a one-bedroom lodge (sleeps four with sofa bed) designed with families, couples and groups of friends in mind. Our genuine log cabins combine rustic charm with all the modern day comforts you'd want, including your own private hot tub, plasma TVs, and high spec kitchens and bathrooms topped off with luxurious finishings.

At Foxton Locks Lodges it's all about personal service and luxury. We'll work hard to meet your individual needs, so you can have a peaceful and stress-free holiday. There's no need to fret about shopping for food or booking taxis. We're happy to do it all for you so you can just sit back and relax...

Our deluxe log cabins are under construction, as is our website, but we're already taking bookings for early 2012 so please don't hesitate to get in touch by email or telephone.

Local Services: Foxton Locks is a popular local tourist attraction just 15 minutes' walk from the log cabins.
Foxton Locks is made up of te largest flight of locks on the English canal system. It's fascinating to watch the narrow boats navigate their way from top to bottom (or visa versa) through the ten locks, which are all manually operated by the boatsmen. The surrounding area is full of a diverse range of wildlife from ducks, herons, rare breeds and many more.
Once you've taken in the wonders of the locks you must take some time to visit the fascinating museum (located in the former boiler house for the incline plane’s steam engine), the well-stocked gift shop or take a boat trip down the canal. After all these activities what better way to unwind that to have a cream tea, pint or even a meal at one of the two canal side pubs; The Foxton Locks Inn or Bridge 61.
There are many other pubs in the area and lots of other attractions such as Rutland Water, Wistow Maze, the historic market towns of Uppingham and Oakham to name a few.
