2019 to boast a new flower meadow

Here at Brook Meadow we are super excited with our new adventure for 2019. In the pipeline we have an amazing floral meadow planned expected to bloom in May.

We have planted some beautiful flowers including English Bluebells, Cornflowers and Foxgloves.

The meadow is accessible to all camping guests. It can be enjoyed as a place to enjoy a traditional English picnic, a beautiful Instagram photo background or an educational field. The meadow and the vegetation is extremely important to Brook Meadow's ecological system and will bring an abundance of interesting wildlife to the campsite. 
Picture
It is extremely important for Brook Meadow to offer a compact area of organic plants to provide pollen for the bee's as we are aware of the extreme decline of the species. We do our utmost best to protect our local wildlife and enjoy the educational opportunities this opens to the children on site. 

You'll feel like Snow White in the 45 acres of woodland offering a happy home to butterflies, birds, bugs and many other animals. On site we also have some very friendly, inquisitive cows, happy free-range hens, delightful ducks and cool Canadian geese. 
​

Our campsite is highly sought after and we get booked up very quickly so we recommend booking your favourite pitch for your 2019 holiday as soon as possible. Email [email protected] to book your pitch or find out more about our wildlife.

Brook Meadow Fishing Lake
Brook Meadow fishing lake

​Living near the water is not possible for all of us but a regular dosage of visiting a body of water is believed to benefit the mind, body and soul.

Blue Mind is a state that has been researched by academics looking into our personal and emotional relationship with water. It is said that spending a lot of time near water can:
  • improve performance in a wide range of fields
  • increase calm and diminish anxiety much better than medication
  • amplify creativity - artistic and otherwise
  • increase generosity and compassion
  • increase professional success
  • improve our overall health and well-being
  • reinforce our connection to the natural world - and one another

Blue Mind proves that water has a significant impact on wellbeing and Brook Meadow is the home of stress relief with a 5 acre lake set amongst 400 acres of farm with 45 acres of woodland and pastureland surrounding the lake
Picture
Finding time in your busy schedule to head to Brook Meadow lake can do a world of good. Not just the physical body of water but also the fresh air and sunshine have underlying health benefits that could be missing from your healthy lifestyle. Fresh air is full of negative ions that help the body absorb oxygen, combat free radicals, and improve alertness. A simple regular dosage of sunshine provides vitamin D, which helps the body absorb calcium – essential for young children. When you’re feeling groggy and restless put down your laptop, round up the children and book a family getaway at Brook Meadow. 

The large fishing lake is ideal to teach your children a lifelong skill or simply watch the comings and goings of the abundance of natural wildlife. Invaluable experience for children can be had at Brook Meadow that cannot be taught in the classroom, watch them flourish with creativity as simple sticks turn into magic wands.

    Living In The Shires Editorial

    ​'Camping, glamping, caravanning and lodge holidays could hardly be more idyllic than in the lakeside setting of Brook Meadow. Set in the glorious unspoiled countryside of Sibbertoft, on the cusp of rural Leicestershire and Northamptonshire, it is so perfect that some couples book the entire site for an overnight wedding reception.'

    Whilst our latest fine-feathered visitors may have escaped from a domestic environment to holiday at Brook Meadow, it is possible they have migrated here....they are one of the highest-flying birds in the world; the Bar-headed Goose flies above the Himalayan Mountains when it migrates, at heights that may reach 30,000 feet.

    We hope our new guests enjoy their stay with us.

    No one should be left behind
