Description
Location
Kirby Muxloe offers a desirable blend of village charm and city access, with good local amenities, and whilst surrounded by countryside, allows swift access to both the M1 and Leicester city centre.
The village, whilst warm and welcoming with traditional pubs, cafes, and local shops, also boasts a popular primary school, providing excellent education for its young residents. Welland Park has a delightful play area and is a popular spot for families.
At the heart of Kirby Muxloe stands the historic Kirby Muxloe Castle, a prominent landmark that dates back to the 15th century. Once a magnificent fortress, now in ruins, the castle served as a symbol of power and grandeur. Its remnants provide a glimpse into a rich medieval past.
Nearby, the equally historic Bradgate Park, is an expanse of woodland and open spaces, perfect for a family walk, and making it a popular destination for wildlife enthusiasts. For outdoor adventurers, Kirby Muxloe is surrounded by rolling countryside, offering ample opportunities for hiking, cycling, and exploring nature.
