'Naturally relaxing, comfortably contemporary, with an attached business included.'Welcome to Keepers CottageCountryside viewsKeepers Cottage is a large house in a delightful country setting that offers privacy, style and historical connections within the charming Leicestershire village of Kirkby Mallory. The villagers of Kirkby Mallory in 1485 may have been within earshot when King Richard III passed by on his way to the Battle of Bosworth Field but certainly it is recorded in 1541 that the village was part of the 4,000 acre estate owned by Thomas Harvey, a supporter of King Henry VIII. By 1666, the Noel family had built the manor house at Kirkby Mallory and the estate was renowned for its large park, stocked with fine trees and deer. Keepers Cottage was the home of subsequent estate gamekeepers and presents as a property that has been nurtured into the present. If you are looking for a new home immersed in the natural charm of its rural surroundings, complimented with the spacious luxury of a renovated, modernised and extended five bedroomed house, Keepers Cottage offers all of this and so much more.
