A great day out awaits
Already explored our lovely Belton Woods Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort and its grounds? Why not head into town? Here’s a few of some of the most interesting things to do in Grantham.
Belton House
3 minute drive
Explore Lincolnshire’s history
Belton House is a beautiful example of Restoration architecture, with extensive grounds including a lake, an ancient deer park and an arboretum too. Make sure you don’t miss its world-renowned library and art collection dating back to the 17th century.
Belvoir Castle
25 minute drive
A faux castle in the East Midlands
Belvoir Castle (pronounced ‘beaver’) has a long history dating back to Norman times and the honour of being the birthplace of afternoon tea. Today, guests can enjoy the traditional pastime in the stately home’s Aviary Tearoom after a relaxing day exploring the pristine gardens.
Hot Air Balloon Ride

Take a trip into the sky
Admire the stunning Lincolnshire landscape from up high. Book a hot air balloon ride and travel 5,000 feet into the air with nothing but the beautiful countryside below to keep you company. Truly, one of the best things to do in Grantham.
Woolsthorpe Manor
23 minute drive
Walk in the footsteps of Sir Isaac Newton
When the plague hit England in 1665, Sir Isaac Newton returned to his family home at Woolsthorpe Manor where he completed his most famous work on the laws of gravity. See the famous apple tree that inspired it all and learn about Newton’s experiments at the on-site Science Centre.
