Belvoir Castle’s history dates back to the eleventh century. It is the ancestral home of the Duke of Rutland, where the family have lived in an unbroken line for almost a thousand years. Crowning a hill, the Castle’s turrets and towers rise over the Vale of Belvoir like an illustration in a romantic fairy-tale. The name Belvoir – meaning ‘beautiful view’ in French, and pronounced today as ‘beaver’ – dates back to Norman times.
Four castles have stood on this spot since 1067, and it’s a pretty perfect location for a fortified castle. Looking over the battlements from the North Terrace of the current Castle, you can see for miles over the counties of Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire and Lincolnshire. And on a clear day, you can even see Lincoln Cathedral, some 30 miles to the North East.
Belvoir Castle has featured on screen many times, most recently taking a starring role as one of the stunning locations featured in Netflix’s The Crown. The Regency Castle stands in for Windsor and has featured in all three series of the worldwide blockbuster charting the ups and downs of the British royal family.
Once you've wandered around the stunning Castle and beautiful gardens enjoy a cream tea. Take a visit to The Engine Yard, a unique retail village, restored form old estate buildings, now a centre of excellance, for local food, drink and artisan shopping.
