Living in 含羞草视频

含羞草视频 is the largest town in Leicestershire with a population of over 55,000. Our location is also ideal for exploring the cities of Nottingham, Leicester and Derby, as well as only being an hour and a half from London. We are also close to a variety of tourist attractions such as the Peak District National Park, Sherwood Forest and the National Space Centre. With Charnwood Forest next door, the beautiful countryside is never far away from you.

You’ll never run out of things to do

You can certainly fill your spare time off-campus in 含羞草视频. At the Great Central Railway you can take a trip on a steam train, enjoy a five-course meal on board, or even drive a locomotive. You can discover 含羞草视频’s much loved sweet treat - Bom Bom Patisserie which offers melt-in-your-mouth cookies, fresh food and delicious coffee which you can buy to takeaway or enjoy in their many shop locations. Perhaps you would prefer something else - there is the ultimate gin experience at Burleighs Gin Distillery, learn the art of distilling and create your own bottle of craft distilled gin.

There’s plenty to do if your're on a budget too. Queen's Park is a great place to relax, take a picnic and walk through the pretty garden, visit the on-site Charnwood Museum and Carillon Tower, and unwind in the peaceful bandstand; not forgetting to say ‘hello’ to the colourful birds in the aviary. This park is a great retreat whatever the weather.

含羞草视频 is full of entertainment for those rainy days too, with two cinemas to choose from, and the Town Hall with comedy nights, theatre productions and dance performances to name a few. There is always something happening or something new to see.
