Shearsby, Leicestershire

SITUATION

The attractive village of Shearsby is set in Leicestershire countryside approximately 9 miles South of Leicester and equidistance to Lutterworth and the medieval market town of Market Harborough, which both provide extensive facilities and a range of independent boutique shopping, restaurants, bars and hotels as well as supermarkets including a Waitrose. Recreational activities are plentiful for all age groups with nearby golf courses including Ullesthorpe, Lutterworth, Market Harborough, and Kilworth Springs. Situated between the two towns is the innovative Kilworth open-air theatre set under sail-like canopies within the grounds of Kilworth House Hotel.

Although protected as a Conservation Area, Shearsby is by no means dormant – it is a lively, active and busy community with the Village Green, the Old School House converted into the village hall, St Mary Magdalene Church and The Chandlers Public House forming the heart of the village.

SCHOOLING

The area boasts an excellent standard of schools, with the local primary schools at both Arnesby and nearby Gilmorton. As well as a good range of state secondary schools in nearby Lutterworth, private schooling is available nearby at Rugby School and Leicester Grammar School (Great Glen).

TRANSPORT LINKS

Transportation links are excellent, with Shearsby being within easy driving distance of the M1, M6, and A14. London Euston may be reached in 48 minutes from nearby Rugby train station, and London St. Pancras may be reached from 55 minutes from Market Harborough train station.
