Family theme park 42 min drive · 24 miles

Twinlakes Park

Sat nav: LE14 4FF

A 100-acre family theme park near Melton Mowbray, with rides, a small zoo and an all-inclusive water park.

Families

Twinlakes is a 100-acre family theme park just north-east of Melton Mowbray in Leicestershire. A large share of the rides are aimed at young children, so it suits families better than thrill-chasing adults. The park bills itself as all-action and all-weather, and says its water park is all inclusive, with unlimited rides, slides and splashes.

Tip: Book tickets online in advance, as the park says this usually gets the best savings.

Stately home 38 min drive · 21.9 miles

Burghley House

Sat nav: PE9 3JY

A grand Elizabethan mansion with Capability Brown parkland, two gardens and a big woodland adventure play area.

Families
Couples
Dogs in the grounds
Half day

Burghley House is one of the largest and grandest houses of the 16th century, built for William Cecil, Lord High Treasurer to Queen Elizabeth I. It is still a family home, and the State Rooms are full of paintings and treasures, including ceiling paintings on the Heaven Room and Hell Staircase and carvings by Grinling Gibbons.

Tip: Book online in advance to save money on the day. Dogs on leads can use the parkland, but not the house, gardens or adventure play.

Visit website Directions

Castle 11 min drive · 6.3 miles

Rockingham Castle

Sat nav: LE16 8TH

A former royal castle and hunting lodge with Norman origins and views over the Welland Valley.

Rockingham Castle is a former royal castle and hunting lodge in Rockingham Forest, about two miles from Corby. William the Conqueror had a wooden motte-and-bailey built here, and a stone castle replaced it within three decades. Kings used it as a retreat, drawn by the forest's wild boar and deer.

Directions

Canal locks 20 min drive · 11 miles

Foxton Locks

Sat nav: LE16 7RA

Two flights of five staircase locks on the Grand Union Canal, with a canal museum and the old inclined plane site.

Foxton Locks are ten canal locks on the Leicester line of the Grand Union Canal, a few miles west of Market Harborough. They form two staircases of five locks, where each lock opens straight into the next, with a short stretch of water called a pound between the two sets. The Grade II* listed flight is part of the European Route of Industrial Heritage.

Tip: If you're travelling by boat, allow about 45 minutes to an hour to pass through the flight, and longer at busy times.

Historic folly 21 min drive · 11.9 miles

Rushton Triangular Lodge

Sat nav: NN14 1RP

A quirky Elizabethan folly where everything comes in threes, built as a defiant statement of faith.

Couples
Families

Rushton Triangular Lodge is a Grade I listed folly built by Sir Thomas Tresham, a staunch Roman Catholic who was often fined or imprisoned for his then-illegal faith. He designed it as a defiant protestation of his belief in the Holy Trinity, so every feature comes in threes.

Tip: There is no English Heritage car park. You can try the nearby lay-by, though parking isn't guaranteed, or walk from Rushton village.

Visit website Directions

Stately home 28 min drive · 15.2 miles

Boughton House

Sat nav: NN14 1BJ

A 17th-century house styled like a French chateau, with formal gardens and a rich art collection.

Boughton House, just north-east of Kettering, is a Northamptonshire country house often called "The English Versailles". It was largely built by the 1st Duke of Montagu, who was strongly influenced by French architecture during his time as ambassador to France.

Tip: The house is open to the public only on certain days each year for guided tours, so check before you set off.

Directions

Norman castle 23 min drive · 13.3 miles

Oakham Castle

Sat nav: LE15 6DR

One of England's best examples of domestic Norman architecture, with walls covered in horseshoes left by visiting nobility.

Rainy days

Oakham Castle is one of the best examples of domestic Norman architecture in England. It doesn't look like a traditional castle. What you see today is the Great Hall of a much larger fortified manor house, which once had a curtain wall, a gatehouse and a drawbridge with iron chains.

Tip: Look up at the carved musicians on the columns, then find the oldest horseshoe, given by Edward IV.

Directions

Space museum 36 min drive · 20.3 miles

National Space Centre

Sat nav: LE4 5NS

A hands-on space museum with a planetarium and interactive exhibits on the outer solar system.
