Boasting accommodation with a patio, Chater Barn is located in Leicester. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are accessible at the holiday home free of charge. The property is non-smoking and is situated 22 km from Leicester Railway Station.

We had a very enjoyable stay at Chater Barn. The property is spacious and comfortable. The bathrooms had nice quality fittings and the same was true of the kitchen. The property would have no problem accommodating 6 adults. I would say that the photos don't actually do justice to the property. It is in a nice quiet location with Oakham and Rutland Water a short drive and Leicester also close by. The National Space Centre was a hit with the grandson.

    Super lovely cabin and lovely facilities in a rural environment! Really lovely! I am a vegan and even though I was not expecting to have a lot of options for breakfast considering it is countryside portugal. But the hosts went above and beyond and got me all the goodies including home made vegan cakes! Thank you!

    fantastic stay & charming room! The room was beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and offered a cozy retreat after a day of exploring. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and we appreciated the extra touches like fresh towels and wifi. Mo was a gracious host, providing clear communication and helpful recommendations for local dining and activities. The location couldn't have been better, with easy access to public transportation and nearby restaurants.We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would happily stay again!"

    Absolutely beautiful setting with the lake where you can admire the views while sipping on coffee on the balcony. Private parking with gates that are locked after 8pm. The lodge itself was very cosy and inviting, the staff should be extremely proud of the way they keep it so clean. Everything is provided in terms of cooking facilities, coffee, tea and milk. It was like home away from home. The bathroom was absolutely spotless with an electric shower, slightly underpowered but hot enough.

    We liked absolutely everything at Aaron Lodge, the host was really nice and welcoming, the entire house was spotless clean, elegant and cozy. Our room was warm, clean and soo comfortable! We didn't have breakfast, we left early (we only had a coffee in our room), but we loved the kitchen, it had everything one could need and a wide range of choices for breakfast. Definitely one of the best option for a stay in Leicester. I can't recommend it enough!
