Burbage
New homes in Burbage
To some residents, Burbage is a village, to some a small town, and to others a popular suburb of Hinckley in Leicestershire. The old Burbage village still exists and as it’s grown it’s become well integrated with Hinckley and enjoys a share of all the local facilities there.
Burbage is midway between Leicester and Coventry, and with the M69 on its doorstep and the M1 and M6 within easy reach, a new home here makes commuting around the East Midlands easy.
It’s a bonus to have a semi-rural location so close to all the action of Birmingham and with good local facilities and plenty of choice when it comes to schools in Burbage and in Hinckley, this a good family-friendly place to live.
