Ranksborough Hall can be found off the A606, giving easy access to the local market towns of Oakham, Melton Mowbray; the Cities of Nottingham, Leicester and Peterborough. The grounds themselves are at the end of a beautifully landscaped drive well away from the main road.
Ranksborough Hall, built in 1893 was once the home of Lord Ranksborough, equerry to Queen Victoria. The Estate has been visited many times by Royalty, in particular George V who regularly rode with the local hunt. The Royal Family today visit Burghley House close by, famous for Show Jumping and its historic interest. Visitors to the hall come from far afield as Scotland and Wales with an increasing number from overseas. The grounds, only 20 miles from the M1, and 8 miles from the A1, are relatively easy to travel to.
