Belton House

Belton House is a tour that is different.

The house that is on show is for the servants only.

So we booked Tickets for the Servants Show.

Basically the hosue has only been restored in afew Rooms.

You ar einvite as new Servants to support a lavish banquet that is being put on.

We were not allowed to take pictures in the servants quarters

But upstairs we were, the light of course was poor

But the show was great

They had restored the red room as it would have been in the late 1800's

and we finished in the Dinning room, Ready for Christmas Dinner.

The house must have been impressive in it day.

The gardens were still being retored.

The nearby church was still in private hands and closed.

But what a house.

Well worth the visit
