Breedon on the Hill Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Middle England. View from Breedon On The Hill Priory, Leicestershire. Going to explore this place next Sunday as was a whistle stop today!
Bit of a detour after a walk round East Midlands Airport. Spotted this priory on a hill in the distance. Drove up to it past picturesque quaint cottages and discovered that you can follow a walking trail #unexpected #breedonpriory #onahill #breedononthehill #takeahike #perfectsunday #offthebeatentrack

Room wasn’t dark enough for a good nights sleep as emergency lighting. No room service menu available. Breakfast was poor as buffet style with limited selection.
