Lovely bit of road across the top of Belvoir from the castle down to Eastwell. Even better with sunshine and a tailwind but enjoyable road surface and views none the less on any day. Fairly quiet traffic wise on a sunny Saturday afternoon.

Not far away from 'fantastic cafe serving excellent coffe and cake' featured in a recent komoot posting. This road provides a relatively easy route SW overlooking the Vale. At its southern end, ride through Eastwell and take the steep descent of Waltham Lane to Harby. You can then return along flat roads, finally to climb back up to Belvoir and the cafe and carpark.

Good roads that circle the castle, can use them to make a good route for the family, a bit lumpy but enjoyable and the roads are fairly quiet.
