Desford is a pleasant village and civil parish that is located around 7 miles to the west of Leicester in Leicestershire. Desford has about 4,000 residents and a history that stretches back to the Domesday Book and beyond. Farming was a big part of village life for centuries, while the former Desford Aerodrome later became an important RAF training base and industrial site. The A47 runs nearby, giving road links to Leicester and Hinckley, with the M1 and M69 motorways also within easy driving distance. Desford has various shops, pubs, schools, sports facilities, healthcare and plenty of surrounding countryside. Tropical Birdland is right on the doorstep and Bosworth Battlefield is also close by, while National Trust-owned Stoneywell and English Heritage's Kirby Muxloe Castle are certainly worth a visit if you have time while you are in the area.
