Family-friendly vacation rentals in Market Harborough

Location was excellent for our purposes (in the center of the city, few minutes walking distance from the University, the market and the railway station) The host was a bit slow in responding before arrival in the UK, but issues regarding were resolved upon arrival at the airport. Overall the apartment was in good to excellent condition apart from some issues which were considered minor due to the relative short stay of 8 days. (One window was very tricky to open and close, the freezer needed some defrosting, one of the faucets had a broken drainer, no towels or sheets were changed during the length of our stay)

Puts the glamour into glamping. Very well equipped kitchen, comfortable living space with lovely log fire, warm shower with all the toiletries needed, topped off by snug bedrooms. The ragout on arrival far exceeded our expectations and the breakfast hamper is generous. Hosts are responsive, helpful and locally knowledgeable. Short walk to local pub is ideal with dogs. Wish we had more time to try the pizza oven and hot tub. We are already looking forward to our return visit.

Spacious and beautiful apartment and great hospitality from Leslie

Everything was just perfect. Very easy checkin, clear instructions on how to use everything, beautifully furnished with great amenities, loved that we could buy local produce too. Highly recommend staying here if you want to be at one with nature and have a few days to switch off. We will definitely be back!!

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful little cabin tucked away in the countryside. From the moment we arrived, everything felt peaceful and relaxing, a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. David, the host, was incredibly welcoming and friendly. He even left us a complimentary bottle of Prosecco on arrival, which was such a thoughtful touch and really set the tone for the stay. The cabin itself is cosy, clean, and well equipped, with stunning views over the surrounding fields. It’s so quiet, serene and ideal for unwinding, especially with the hot tub just outside. The outdoor space is great too, with a BBQ and plenty of room to enjoy the fresh air. We only stayed a couple of days but left feeling refreshed and recharged. If you’re looking for a peaceful countryside break, I’d definitely recommend this place. We’d love to come back again!

We loved our stay at this beautiful lodge! The pictures really don’t do it justice, it’s just on the edge of the property so no one is overlooking you and it felt totally secluded and private. We also enjoyed a few good walks and yummy carvery Sunday lunch at the Foxton Locks pub.

I loved it so much I have booked to go again, disappointed that the prices are higher. However it was the perfect break that I needed.

We stayed for our mini honeymoon, it was just perfect! We were allowed to bring our small dog to, which just made it even more special. The area was so peaceful and beautiful. The hut itself was great, cute little features and very clean. The bath outside was brilliant. We would stay here again!

A great secret cottage! Smack bang in the middle of a lovely village high street, with a nice pub and an impressive looking Indian restaurant, plus cafes and a few other shops.

Debbie’s place is homely and comfortable. Everything is in the cottage to make for a pleasant stay. We were able to park right outside and there is a just a short walk to town centre. Great value as well. Rohan.

We had a lovely 2 night stay at The White Cottage, facilities are great. The kitchen has everything you need, excellently equipped. We liked the fact there is a downstairs bathroom as well as an upstairs one with a bath.

Wow! What a beautiful place to stay. Perfect for us walking around Rutland Water. Elizabeth was such a lovely host and we loved the breakfast hamper and all the extra bits. Would definitely recommend and looking forward to booking again.

The character cottage had everything that we could have wished for, and Katrien was a wonderful responsive host. It's location & the town are absolutely beautiful, and it's only a few minutes walk into a town centre that takes you back in time, with its wide range of proper traditional shops & restaurants. 10/10!!

A lovely getaway for the family and dog. Boys loved climbing in the tree house,space to run around,the canoes and the painting station. the dog had freedom to roam. the cabin is quirky and everything is well thought of and John had left marshmallows and choco digestives for s'mores. John is a fab host. really attentive and knowledgeable. relaxing stay, many thanks 👍 would definitely visit again.

We had a wonderful stay at Clare’s place. The setting was beautiful, the house was exactly as described, and we all felt very at home there. Clare provided lots of local information which was really useful so that we could make the most of our stay. The village was tranquil and exactly what we were looking for - a local pub within walking distance and some great walks from the house. Clare’s place was clean, homely, and made for an excellent stay which three generations of our family could all enjoy and make memories there. I can certainly see us returning!

A wonderful stay at Marc’s place in Grafham. It’s a great location with local amenities and lovely places to walk. The lodge is surrounded by trees and really peaceful. We hope to return!

My boys and I had a wonderful stay at Barley Cottage. Stephen and Philip are amazing hosts, super friendly, very knowledgeable of the area and great conversation. The cottage was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. The beds were super comfy and the shower was great. Water Newton is an idyllic little village just a stones throw from Peterborough, but a world away! We loved every minute of our time there.

From 1st contact, Patricia was quick to reply & friendly. Her lodge was spotless and equipped with everything u cld want. Welcome pack of bread / milk etc such a lovely thought. Flowers and plants around the lodge are absolutely beautiful! The park itself is so peaceful. Would definately recommend

We were greeted well upon arrival. They showed and explained everything. We were also lucky to see beautiful peacocks on the territory. The house corresponds to the description and photos. There is a good sauna, a large pool and there is a passage from a small goubina to a large one. The jacuzzi is also large. Everything is clean and neat, we liked it, the child is delighted, we will definitely come again.🙃

This place is perfect for a quiet getaway. The hosts are fantastic and the lovely warm pool is great to play in with the kids. You can even go fishing at the end of their garden ( which I took full advantage of!!) or just relax with a glass of wine and sit looking over the river. We look forward to returning next year.

Stephen is amazing, personable, responsive, ready with helpful actionable suggestions if you need them . The place itself is on a beautiful , riverside property, with beautifully maintained garden, swimming pool. It is 10 minutes drive from Peterborough and 25 minutes form Stomford, and has many trails and walks around that you can explore.

Sharon’s property is nothing short of exceptional. It was perfect to accommodate our (quiet) hen party, with plenty of comfortable beds, a well stocked kitchen and many other rooms to enjoy. The pool area was super clean and very enjoyable in the sunny weather we had. Sharon herself was the most welcoming host we could have hoped for. She gave us an excellent tour of the house and grounds open our arrival, and was always on hand next door for any queries or just a chat if we fancied! She was even kind enough to let us have a late checkout so that we could enjoyed the pool for longer. Thank you so much Sharon x

We had the most amazing weekend at The Courtyard. We were a group of 10 guests celebrating a 30th birthday, and we had everything we could have needed. Sally met us for check in and showed us around, but gave us privacy for the rest of the weekend. She also left us some homemade bread, and crisps and Prosecco from her nephews business. She was responsive to messages throughout our weekend, and gave us a generous late checkout. The property and surroundings were beautiful, and the pool was a highlight. We placed an online Sainsburys delivery which saved a lot of time and stress. We all highly recommend The Courtyard to anyone looking for a peaceful weekend in the countryside. Thank you Sally and John
