Overlooked by stately
Belvoir Castle, the wide green Vale of Belvoir (pronounced Beever)
bordering Leicestershire,
Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire is an area of farmland and quiet
villages, much loved by cyclists and walkers. Willdlife
and bird life in abundance can be enjoyed from the doorstep. A short
distance from Robin Hood country.
Surrounded by numerous
wonderful places to attract a wide range of interests and age groups from the cities
of Nottingham, Leicester and Lincoln to the quaint market towns of Melton
Mowbray, Newark, Grantham and Stamford. For National Trust members
we are centrally situated with easy access to numerous East Midlands National Trust
Properties.
