Kirby Bellars is a small village and civil parish in the Borough of Melton, Leicestershire, England, tucked into the rolling farmland south-east of Melton Mowbray and lying within easy reach of the Vale of Belvoir. The setting is typically rural, with traditional stone and brick cottages, working farms and open views over hedged fields that give the parish a quiet, countryside character.
The village has a long history and is notable for its medieval connections, most visibly the church of St Peter and St Paul and the legacy of a former priory, which give it a pleasing historic centre. Local life is shaped by agriculture and equestrian activity, a small but active community scene around the village hall and pub, and a mix of long-standing residents and commuters who travel to nearby towns for work and services.
