Belvoir Castle
Highlight • Viewpoint
The house has been the ancestral home of the Dukes of Rutland with the family living at Belvoir for almost a thousand years. The land was a gift from William the Conqueror to one of his Normal barons who fought for him at the Battle of Hastings 1066. The house and gardens can be visited with a cafe to take a break.

Little Treats coffee van at Belvoir Castle
Highlight • Rest Area
The staff are awesome! Friendly, chatty and enthusiastic, I visited alone but immediately felt like I had made some new friends.
The coffee is amazing. They serve a variety of coffees and have multiple dairy free milk options available at no extra cost. For cold drinks they serve the classic Belvoir sparkling beverages chilled fresh from the chiller. The food is equally delicious. A fresh daily selection of traybakes, cakes, and cookies, there's something for every taste including vegans! On this occasion, I went for the Bakewell tart and must say Bakewell has some competition here.
Before you visit do quickly check there Facebook page or website as they are not always at Belvoir castle. I have been informed that they intend to increase there opening days though.
