While the village of Stilton is renowned for its namesake cheese, production is restricted to Derbyshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire due to Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) regulations [1]. However, visitors can still immerse themselves in the cheese's rich history by visiting the Bell Inn, a historic coaching inn where Stilton cheese was first sold in the 18th century [2]. For a unique experience, plan your visit around the Stilton Cheese Rolling Festival, held every May, where participants roll wheels of cheese through the village streets—a delightful tradition celebrating the village's heritage.

2-40 plumpton, mr Wilkie 😉

Epic descent into the fields..

A great area to visit if you like short, sharp hills. Very scenic and pretty quiet.

Nestled in a serene valley above the river Chater, this grand Tudor house was originally commissioned by Thomas Cromwell on the site of a former priory. Cromwell acquired the estate during the Dissolution of the Monasteries but enjoyed it only briefly before his execution in 1540. Known as Launde, indicating a clearing in the Rutland forest, the house currently serves as a Christian retreat and conference centre for the Leicester and Peterborough dioceses of the Church of England.

Burrough Hill (210m) commands views over the surrounding countryside for miles around. A great place for a hill fort as discovered back in the early Iron age.

Interesting history & a good climb in either direction.

If you're enjoying a view of Launde Abbey - a Christian retreat and conference centre, you're about to work for it - enjoy the climb up and out!

Rideable bridleway on the edge of a wheat(?) field. Not always cleared but also not really bumpy

Include this in your route if you like hills.

Beautiful wooded area with lots of wildlife - birds, muntjack deer, lovely trees.

A great place to stop and have a picnic, just a short walk from the car park, with extensive views of the surroundings There's a toposcope to help identify things. The grassy area inside the earthbanks is an ideal safe area for children to play and work off their energy.

Short hill with a magnificent surrounding

Great cafe if you need some refreshments!

Enjoy your close up view of the Abbey and get your breath back. It's steeply uphill in every direction … :)

Countryside Christian retreat on the site of an old abbey. Very picturesque.
