NT doesn't encourage cycling in the wider estate, but it's straightforward to cycle through in either direction from the main entrance along the newly resurfaced mile long South Drive and through the (time controlled) pedestrian gate onto Belton Lane. Recently they've been giving out coffee vouchers to people arriving on foot or by cycle at the entrance booths near the car park. They're trying to encourage low carbon visitors.

Popular National Trust property. If you are lucky you may see a cricket match being played in front of the house during the summer. Standard over priced and busy cafe.

Belton House, completed in 1688 is surrounded by formal gardens and a series of avenues leading to follies within a wooded park. It is a National Trust property, so free for members to visit. Cafe facilities and so much to see and do.

Short uphill stomp from 5 Gates Lane car park to this historic tower; stand under it for stunning views over NT Belton House parkland, then head beyond it for lovely woodland walks.
