Nevill Arms Inn

Historic Charm Meets Post-Concert Comfort

Modern concerts meet old-world charm at the Nevill Arms Inn, a Grade II listed country inn nestled in the heart of Market Harborough. Originally built in 1863, this beautifully restored property offers a cosy, traditional vibe with oak-beamed ceilings, stone fireplaces, and leaded mullion windows. It’s the perfect blend of heritage and hospitality—ideal for music lovers wanting a serene place to crash after the show.

With just 10 en suite rooms, all located on the first floor, the inn offers a more intimate and peaceful stay than your average chain hotel. The setting by a tributary of the River Welland, plus a terrace overlooking the village green, adds to the tranquil, countryside vibe.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert-goers appreciate the peaceful atmosphere—a welcome contrast to the high energy of a live gig. The inn’s relaxed check-in at 14:00 and checkout at 11:00 offer flexibility for those arriving early or sleeping in post-show. While not in a bustling city centre, the location is ideal for those attending events in Leicestershire or nearby villages, with easy car access and charming local pubs within walking distance.
