Belton House near Grantham will reopen parkland and gardens following coronavirus lockdown

The National Trust site is reopening, but guests will have to book a slot prior to visiting.

From June 3, visitors will be able to enjoy the garden and parklands of Belton House. However, the adventure playground, cafes and food outlets remain closed.

To visit Belton House, you must book a 30 minute time slot where you can enter the grounds. After this, you are welcome to stay until closing time.

Belton House closed to visitors on March 22 to prevent the spread of coronavirus.

Woolsthorpe Manor, another local National Trust site, remains closed for the forseeable future.

Belton House said: "We've reduced the number of people we can welcome to ensure the safety of our visitors, staff, volunteers and local communities.

"We ask that you book your visit in advance. Sadly, if you don't book, you’ll be turned away, even if you're a member."

"Please arrive within your timeslot. Sadly, if you're more than 10 minutes late, we'll not be able to guarantee you entry."

They ask you to book one ticket per person, with children aged 5 or under not requiring a ticket.

Mobility scooter, wheelchair hire and property run transport will not be available.

Bookings can be made by ringing 03442 491 895. To book a slot online, go to: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/timed-entry-to-belton-house-3-june-7-june-tickets-106749974046.
