The Fox Inn can be found in the idyllic village of Wilbarston on the Leicestershire / Northants border. It is situated on the main road of the village. It is just a moments walk away from the breath-taking views of Welland valley with the choice of long local walks with beautiful views and countryside or a leisurely stroll to neighbouring villages. It is also only a few miles from Market Harborough, Corby, Kettering or Leicester. The pub is set in the heart of the village and is very much a focal point for the community. The Fox was built as an inn and parts of it date back to the 14th century, it was the second building to be built in the village after the church and has seen the village develop to what it is today, it holds many great memories and stories to the locals some of which families have been coming to the pub for many generations.
Pub Layout
On walking to the pub there is a paved beer garden to the rear which sits by the roadside to watch the world go by. When you enter the pub there is a raised lounge area suitable for drinking or eating which leads to the main bar area which curves around the horseshoe-shaped bar. To the right hand side is some comfortable fixed seating and a wood burning stove and to the left there is a more traditional bar feel but again suitable for both drinking and eating. To the right of the bar there are some steps that lead to another trading room and the toilets. The top trading room is currently used as a sports area with TV’s, darts and skittles. It could also be used as a meeting room or private dining.
The private accommodation consists of three bedrooms, sitting room bathroom and kitchen
