Desford sits just 7.5 miles from Leicester city centre and boasts an active community including local pubs, sports club, village hall, medical centre, library, nurseries, an Ofsted rated ‘Outstanding’ school and two churches.

Homes at Earls Place are traditionally constructed and highly energy efficient. A range of detached, semi-detached and terraced properties ensure there is something to cater for all tastes, with each home benefiting from an extremely versatile internal layout as well as private garage or driveway.

The village has an array of independent shops including post office, Co-op, beautician and hairdresser as well as several restaurants, cafes and takeaways to tempt and treat the tastebuds. Two village pubs, The Blue Bell and The Lancaster Arms serve classic country fare amid cosy log fires enabling you to enjoy an evening out with friends or family. Staying healthy and active is easy too, as the village has its own fitness club, Sport in Desford, with gym, sports pitches, fitness studios, bowls green and timetabled classes.
