Around Melton Mowbray.

Melton Mowbray calls itself the rural capital of food, and it earns the title with its pork pies, Stilton made nearby and a busy livestock market. It is also traditional fox-hunting country, surrounded by small villages in the Vale of Belvoir and the Wreake valley. Food producers and cafés benefit from sites that tell visitors where to find them on market days, while trades serving farms and village homes need to say clearly how far out they will travel.

Elsewhere in Leicestershire: Syston (9 miles), Loughborough (13 miles) and Oadby (14 miles). Just over the council boundary, Oakham (9 miles) is close by. Further out, Cotgrave (12 miles), Bingham (13 miles), Leicester (14 miles) and Uppingham (14 miles) are within commuting distance. A list of the places you really serve is more useful to a customer than “and surrounding areas”.

Asfordby, Thorpe Arnold, Waltham on the Wolds, Scalford, Frisby on the Wreake and Kirby Bellars: if you work in particular parts of Melton Mowbray, those names belong on the site.

From our base in Exeter, Melton Mowbray is about 181 miles to the north-east. Its postcodes start LE.
