Eating and shopping at Belton

The Joinery ice cream parlour

Available from Belton’s historic carpenter’s workshop, our ice cream is made by the Brown Family in the Derbyshire hills, where they’ve been milking cows since 1953. With up to 20 flavours to choose from, which will you pick? Open seasonally.

Muddy Hands kiosk

Located in Belton’s outdoor adventure playground. Choose from a selection of snacks, ice creams, and hot and cold drinks, while the children let off steam in the National Trust’s largest outdoor playground.

Remember your reusable cup. Every time you present it when you order a hot drink at one of our cafés, tea-rooms or kiosks*, we'll give you 25p off as a thank you for helping the environment by reducing the number of disposable cups used.

*Discount not guaranteed at food outlets operated by third parties.

Every cuppa or tasty treat you buy helps us to continue looking after places for everyone to enjoy.

Allergen information

Most of the food and drink served is prepared on site in our kitchen, using a wide range of ingredients. As a result, we can’t guarantee that any of our food and drink products are completely allergen free.

If you have an allergy or intolerance and would like ingredient information about the food and drink served, please ask the staff, who will be happy to help.

Always check when you visit
