Burley on the Hill has the remains of 17th- and 18th-century formal landscaping around the house and in the parkland and woodland, including a 17th-century avenue and bowling green. Humphry Repton produced a Red Book for the estate in the late 18th century. The site is now in multiple private ownership and the house has been converted to apartments. The walled kitchen garden is now a private residence called Tower House.

Garendon Park comprises the remains of an 18th-century landscape park created on the site of a Cistercian Abbey founded in 1133. The park contains several early-18th-century structures. At its most extensive the park extended to 300 hectares but this has been reduced by development and much of the area has been returned to agriculture.

The manor house, formerly known as Rothley Temple, now Rothley Court Hotel, is set behind high stone walls, which conceal it from the road. Manicured lawns and shrub borders surround the house and outbuildings. Beyond them, there is English parkland with fine trees, extending into neighbouring fields which originally formed part of the estate. To the north-west of the house is a walled garden and, to the south, running from the terrace, is a straight path, punctuated by a stone pool and fountain, which leads down to Rothley Brook.

Brooksby Hall is set in 31 acres of grounds, sloping northwards down to the River Wreake. The estate is the country campus of Brooksby Melton College of Further Education and offers training in a wide range of country skills. It was formerly the county agricultural college. The Hall, originally a late 16th Century country house, was extended in the late 19th century. It houses administrative offices for the College as well as offering conference, banqueting and wedding facilities. In the grounds to the south of the Hall, is the Church of St Michael, which dominates the landscape. Modern college buildings, dating from the 1950s to 1970s are located to the north and east of the Hall. The gardens, which are informal in style, include a lake and a stream. The wide range of planting reflects the College’s status as a horticultural college.
