LUTTERWORTH BALLOON FLIGHTS

Let a Lutterworth hot air balloon ride open up the skies and magnificent views of the Leicestershire flight that you’ll never forget! Launching at the handsome Stanford Hall, the ancestral home of the Cave family that was built in the 1690s, the first thing you will see on your balloon flight is the hall’s grounds with the River Avon flowing though it.

With the wind as your guide, any number of sights might float into view, including Kilworth House, a glorious 19^thcentury country abode that is now a hotel and theatre, the Grade I listed Kelmarsh Hall with its lovely parkland and the Naseby battlefields, where on the morning of 14^thJune 1645, the confrontation proved a decisive victory for the Parliamentarians and marked the beginning of the end for the Royalists in the First English Civil War. Thankfully your balloon ride over Lutterworth will be a much more serene affair, as the glorious Leicestershire countryside rolls away in all direction to create memories that last a lifetime.

The Flight

DURING YOUR LUTTERWORTH BALLOON RIDE

As you drift gently over the Leicestershire countryside near Lutterworth, there will be ample opportunity to take photographs from this unique vantage point. During your flight you are free to discuss how the balloon works with the pilot, who will also be pointing out the many points of interest that drift below you or rest gently on the horizon.
