Belvoir Castle is just 1½ miles from the
cottage and is the current family home of the 11th Duke of Rutland
and his family. As a visitor to the Duke's estate, you receive
complimentary admission to the Castle which is open from April
to October.
The
name Belvoir means 'beautiful view' and indeed it commands a
breathtaking vista of the surrounding rolling English countryside.
Originally built in around 1070, the castle has suffered a scarred
history, being damaged and even partially demolished during the Wars
of the Roses (1455 – 1487), the English Civil War (1642 – 1651) and
a major fire in 1816. As well as tours of the Castle interior – a
stunning example of 19th Century gothic revival decoration - Belvoir
Castle also has a fine art collection, including paintings by
Gainsborough, Reynolds, Holbein and Poussin and rare French and
Regency furniture.
