Location - Cadeby is a charming viIlage located immediately to the South East of Market Bosworth. The village is one of the prettiest in the area and is largely made up of period cottages and houses. Market Bosworth is one of the most well regarded and exclusive towns in West Leicestershire. The town services a wide area and there is a traditional market every Wednesday as well as a Farmers Market on the fourth Sunday of every month. The town is home to one of the area's leading private schools, The Dixie Grammar, there are also Primary and High Schools. It should be noted that the High School has been rated as 'outstanding' by Ofsted. There is a thriving community with a variety of sports clubs including rugby, football and bowls. There is also a large country park overlooked by the historic Bosworth Hall Hotel. There is a high speed rail link from Nuneaton making it possible to commute to London Euston by train in just under an hour, with Atherstone Station being a useful alternative servicing other routes.
Historic Note - Cadeby Hall was built in the Tudor style, replacing the original Hall, which burnt down in the 1600's which in turn was built on the site of a Norman Keep. It is believed that the legendary highwayman Dick Turpin stayed at the hall, that the Duke of Norfolk camped in the area before the Battle of Bosworth and a particular interesting feature of the Hall is the secret cellar, part of which may have at one time been a priest hole.
