Location

Queniborough is an unspoilt conservation village with a particularly unspoilt village centre, dominated by attractive period cottages and houses, some thatched. Local facilities include a primary school, popular butchers shop, general store and two popular pubs. The village also offers a thriving community and an ancient village church. The village is particularly well placed for commuting to Leicester, Melton Mowbray and Loughborough, the A46 now affording fast access via the North West Leicester bypass to the M1. More extensive local facilities and amenities are available at nearby Syston.
