The magical woodland playground at Belvoir Castle is perfect for an open air open adventure this half term.
Spanning four acres, the playground is inspired by the iconic architecture of Belvoir Estate and its past and present explorers. Featuring a giant timber castle, along with a ship and towers, set within the woodlands, the playground has something for all ages to explore.
The estate’s artisan shopping village The Engine Yard is open every day, with free parking available for stays of up to 4 hours. The Fuel Tank Kitchen is introducing a new children’s menu in time for half term offering popular staples such as scampi and chips, sausage and mash as well as smoothies, milkshakes and babyccinos.
Belvoir Castle opens for the new season on 12 March 2023. Friends of Belvoir Castle annual passes represent one of the best value for money ways to visit, giving unlimited visits to the Castle, Garden including its adventure playground, and free access to the series of historical Belvoir Revisited events. Adult £60, Child 4-16 £20.

About The Engine Yard
Carefully restored from Victorian buildings and surrounded by woodland, the Engine Yard is the first retail village of its kind in the local area. Originally constructed in 1850, the Engine Yard has a wealth of history, and was once the hub of the estate with a saw mill, wagon making shop and wheelwright’s shop. Today it’s home to a distinctive selection of shops and experiences right next to Belvoir Castle.
