A charming Grade II listed character cottage with superb outbuildings in a charming village with lovely views<br/></br>
<b>Situation</b>
The small village of Welham, which sits within some glorious undulating countryside has a population of about 36. It lies on the Leicestershire side of the river Welland about four miles North-East of Market Harborough and twelve miles from Leicester. The first written reference to the village is in the Domesday Book, when it was called 'Weleham'.
</br>
Welham neighbours with the village Weston by Welland which houses a very popular family friendly pub. Other neighbouring villages are Medbourne, which has a shop, café, pub and sports club, while at Ashley there is a highly regarded farm shop.
</br>
The nearby market town of Market Harborough is just four miles away and provides a good range of everyday shopping facilities including a market, theatre, and rail link to London St Pancras International in approximately 1 hour.
</br>
Road links are excellent with the A47 connecting Leicester and Peterborough, while the A14 allows fast access both East and West. International air travel is available at East Midlands Airport, Birmingham, Stansted and Luton.
</br>
Schooling in the area is excellent with a primary at Church Langton, Wilbarston and Great Bowden and secondary in Market Harborough. There are also many choices of independent schools including Oakham, Uppingham, Leicester Grammar, Oundle and Stamford.
</br>
Recreational facilities in the area are renowned with Rutland Water set to the North, between Uppingham and Oakham. This provides excellent sailing and fishing facilities together with scenic walks and cycle route. The much-adored opera house at Nevill Holt is also worth a visit.
