You can stay the night in the castle used as The Crown filming location

Cancel your New Year's Eve plans - something better just came up.

For the first time ever, Belvoir Castle's grand suite, which was originally purpose-built for visiting royalty and has been used as a filming location standing in for Windsor for The Crown and The Young Victoria will be available on Airbnb.

As guests of the Duchess of Rutland and her family, guests will get to live like royalty in the three-room suite, which is adorned with opulent, regal interiors from floor to ceiling.

The royal experience will begin on the afternoon of arrival, when the guests will enjoy afternoon tea within the very grounds where the tradition of afternoon tea is said to have originated back in the 1840s.

Afternoon tea will be followed by dinner served in the State Dining Room; later in the evening, you can enjoy a drinks reception in The Library, as seen in The Crown.

It will be available for stays with Airbnb on December 31, January 11 and 25.

The Duchess of Rutland said: “The King’s Suite is a truly unique space with a fascinating history, so I am very excited to share it with guests for the first time on Airbnb.

"One couple in particular, over New Year’s Eve, will get to ring in the new decade in truly unforgettable style. Whether you’re drawn to the incredible Regency architecture, want to experience the lavish royal lifestyle or simply follow in the footsteps of your favourite stars, a stay at Belvoir is sure to provide a memorable experience."
