welcome people who are just discovering our delights for themselves.

As seen on TV...When film production units need a period house location, the Lincolnshire Vales stately homes are the first point of call.

Belton House has been used in productions such as the BBC's Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice and Tom Jones. Burghley House

was the backdrop for Elizabeth The Golden Age, The Da Vinci Code, and the 2006 Working Title adaptation of Pride and

Prejudice starring Keira Knightley as character Mr Collins put it, Burghley is "The most extraordinary sight in all Europe."
