# Purple Badger camping & fishing lakes Nestling on the borders of Rutland & Leicestershire, our two fishing lakes sit amongst woodland and wildlife. Two shepherds huts rest on the edge of the top lake ready for relaxation, fishing and star-gazing . Enjoy camping in our bottom field where you can cook on open fires next to your own tent or sleep in one of our resident bell tents which are available for you to hire either furnished or unfurnished if you fancy bringing some of your home comforts with you. Rutland is full of things to see and do from water sports, walking trails, cycling and of course fishing ! We also have bustling market towns, country houses and castles for you to visit, pretty impressive for the UK's smallest county . ​ Leicester city is on our doorstep, home to the National Space centre and also the impressive Richard III visitor centre. - Type: Place to stay - Location: Leicester, Charnwood, England - Booking: Book online on HolidayFox - HTML page: https://www.holidayfox.com/en/e/dest-UdGpS9sP6-lM/purple-badger-camping-and-fishing-lakes - Live availability (JSON): https://www.holidayfox.com/api/agent/availability?id=dest-UdGpS9sP6-lM ## Stay types - [Logan Shepherd's Hut](https://www.holidayfox.com/en/e/dest-UdGpS9sP6-lM/purple-badger-camping-and-fishing-lakes/accommodations/acctype-EbwV-3KAZZT-/logan-shepherd-s-hut) — sleeps up to 2.
