It is also close to the towns of Hinckley (11 miles) and Market Harborough (13 miles). Nearby villages include Bitteswell, Gilmorton, Leire, and Broughton Astley, and green spaces are within easy reach across the local countryside.
As a town, Lutterworth has more amenities than you find in surrounding villages, making it a good home for those who want the essentials on their doorstep. Meanwhile, the town’s location at Junction 20 of the M1 makes it easy to access everything you need further afield.
Waitrose, Morrisons, and Aldi all have large stores in Lutterworth, so there is a supermarket to suit all tastes and budgets. There are also a number of smaller convenience stores dotted throughout the town, plus a good selection of takeaways, restaurants, and pubs.
