Our Inspector's view
Kilworth House Hotel is a restored Victorian country house set in 38 acres of private grounds. The gracious public areas feature many period pieces and original art works, and bedrooms are very comfortable and well equipped. The large Orangery is the place for informal dining, while the opulent Wordsworth Restaurant has a more formal air. Close to the lake there's an open-air theatre which seats 540; professional productions are performed, and picnics can be arranged, or dinner back at the hotel is also an option.

About the area
Discover Leicestershire
Leicestershire is divided between the large country estates of its eastern side and the industrial towns of the East Midlands to its west. Coal mining was an important part of the county’s industrial development in the 19th and 20th centuries. This is reflected in its heritage, including a reclaimed mine near Coalville, now divided between a nature reserve and Snibston Discovery Park, where families can learn about the mining industry. Meanwhile, agricultural areas are concentrated around the pleasant market towns of Market Harborough and Market Bosworth.
The county’s administrative centre is the city of Leicester, and other major towns are Loughborough, which includes bell-founding among its many industries, and Melton Mowbray, home of Stilton cheese and a particularly English item, the pork pie. One shop in Leicester has been specialising in this meaty delicacy since 1851. Northeast of Melton Mowbray is the lovely Vale of Belvoir, beneath which are large deposits of coal.
Charnwood Forest, with fewer trees than one would expect, provides a wild and rugged landscape conveniently situated for escape from the city. It lies to the northwest of Leicester extending to Loughborough and Coalville, with some interruptions.
