Vale House Belvoir

Wonderful antiques.

We've just returned from a two night stay in one of the bell tents. The bell tents are fabulous!We were 5 adults sharing - two in the double bed, three on the floor on the supplied folding beds. All bedding and towels are included, as are cooking equipment, wood, matches, and firelighters for the fire bowl, and tea and coffee. Each tent has a key to its own lockable cubicle with a sink, toilet and shower in the shower block, and there are dish washing stations at the end of the block.Everything was great! Spotless facilities, lovely site, and a well equipped glamping experience. The Engine Yard nearby has a bar, cafe, pizza, and a few other businesses and a small kids play area.We've had a brilliant stay. Would definitely recommend this place and would visit again.

Over-priced antiques

Beautiful rooms. Great value for money for a break away. Excellent facilities in the room. Would definitely recommend and stay again in the future.

Absolutely Splendid....

The duchess is fantastic ....v hard working... Hotel is divine

Beautiful and unique rooms for holidays and short breaks just a few steps from all that you need.

A couple of issues that reduced the quality of our stay. The first and most infuriating was the leaf blower at 7am. Incredulous about this one as the area being cleared on a Sunday doesn’t open til 10am.Which leads me to our next point, nothing opens for visiting guests, it does say ‘self catering style’ accommodation but a tiny fridge in the room with no fresh milk, just a couple of UHT samples and tea/coffee - that’s it! Nowhere does breakfast so had to travel to Grantham. Not ideal.In the evening everything seemed to close at 4pm - on a Saturday! There was a bar but as we were staying with our children again not ideal.Room itself frustrating as plenty of furniture in room but nowhere to put anything. House is filled with all sorts of accessories and ornaments (all with the prices on BTW-like you are staying in a rather gaudy shop) but again simple dressing table or side table filled with trinkets so you can only keep your stuff in suitcase and hang up a few items on the hooks on the wall?!Then the general maintenance of the place, cobwebs a plenty, we had a floorboard loose that my husband hurt his foot on.Next came the mirrored tiled bathroom that meant from the bed you could see each other sat on the toilet. How lovely. Again no simple thought in the bathroom either for a towel rail or toilet roll holder. Just stick that on the floor shall we?!Radiator needed to be turned off in room on first arrival but TRV didn’t work so couldn’t then turn it back on. Great.Top it off was the tiny ‘motel’ TV. About as big as an IPad. Embarrassing really as I’d spent the afternoon wandering around the opulent home of the Duke and Duchess of Rutland, that they couldn’t stretch to decent sized TV’s in the bedrooms shows they prefer to sell stuff and make a few quid rather than spend it.Won’t be returning. Wouldn’t recommend.

We came here for a one night stay after visiting some family in Lincoln and Grantham. It is a beautiful building very well looked after. The check in was all self service so there was no staff around but we were given a phone number in case we needed to contact someone. We stayed in one of the family rooms and it was very well decorated with comfortable clean beds and fresh towels and linens. Although there was no ensuite there were two toilets with walk in showers just across the hall which were very clean. There was a lovely big outside area for the children or to sit and have a drink outside.
