On entering the gardens at Belton, the first thing you see are the Italian Gardens centered around a large circular pond and fountain. These are very pretty formal gardens layed out in expanding circles around the pond. |
Disabled access to the park and gardens is good with firm flat paths to most areas, only a couple of short trips down gentle grass banks are required to get to the pond - everywhere else, execpt the orangery is accessable to scooters and wheelchairs. The house itself has been the location for several BBC films including - Pride and Prejudice, Jane Eyre and Tom Jones. Directions - head to the town of Grantham in Lincolnshire, just off the A1. Then take the A607 north for about 3 miles, Belton House is signposted in Grantham. | ||
