NT doesn't encourage cycling in the wider estate, but it's straightforward to cycle through in either direction from the main entrance along the newly resurfaced mile long South Drive and through the (time controlled) pedestrian gate onto Belton Lane.

The Church of St Nicholas dates back to the 12th century and is Grade I-listed. The church windows have some beautifully ornate stained glass windows from the 1800s. Inside there is a wonderful mixture of monuments and objects from the 17th and 18th centuries.
