Quorn Farmhouse Guidebook
Sightseeing
These are the top 5 attractions on the doorstep of the Quorn Farmhouse they have been carefully selected by the owner and host to offer you, your family, friends and colleagues an unforgettable Leicestershire experience!
Bradgate Park - https://www.bradgatepark.org – 10 minutes drive
The Park offers a wild and rugged landscape with dramatic rocky outcrops and gnarled old oak trees, many of which are well over 500 years old. The landscape offers some of the finest views and is rich in change throughout the seasons. If you do not fancy exploring the hills, the lower part of the Park is easily accessible, with a tarmac carriage-way running through this area, that is suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs. Our Visitor Centre is in the heart of the Park, alongside the carriage-way at the Deer Barns, where you will also find one of our two Tearooms.

Great Central Railway - http://www.gcrailway.co.uk – Quorn Station 5 minutes drive away
The Great Central Railway is the UK's only double track, main line heritage railway. It’s the only place in the world where full size steam engines can be seen passing each other – just as it was when steam ruled the rails.
Trains run every weekend of the year, bank holidays and selected week days through the summer. In addition, First Class Restaurant Car Services provide five course meals whilst travelling between Loughborough and Leicester. Childhood dreams can come true with a Drive a Locomotive Experience when you can take the regulator on a mighty steam locomotive or notch up on a powerful diesel. The fantastic team of volunteers also run many special events, including Steam Galas, Peppa Pig, Bonfire Night, 1940s Wartime Weekend and Santa Specials.

The Quorn Farmhouse nestles on the same land on the Quorn part of the farm. AT Stonehurst Farm, just 10 minutes walk or 5 minutes walk from Quorn Farmhouse you can meet and feed the friendly animals, collect freshly laid eggs, swing in the straw barn, enjoy tractor rides, pony rides, hold baby animals, explore our nature trail and see what you can catch "pond dipping". All this and two super playgrounds, a delightful tea shop, farm shop and a fantastic motor museum!

Belvoir Castle, standing proudly in the Vale of Belvoir and home to the Duke of Rutland's family since 1067, one of the finest examples of Regency architecture in the world.
But there’s so much more to Belvoir… beautiful formal gardens with water features, woodland trails, the chance to enjoy country pursuits, a stunning rural retail village and of course the opportunity to celebrate a wedding or christening in fairy-tale style.
