Here's what you can see and do when staying at one of our Rutland cottages.
Proud of its status as England's smallest county, Rutland packs a lot into such a tiny area and is quintessentially English. Without doubt Rutland Water is the focus for many staying in the holiday cottages Rutland has to offer. At the time of construction it was Europe's largest man-made lake and has established itself as a real tourist attraction. It is the perfect place to enjoy a cycle ride in a safe and family friendly environment with a relatively flat cycle track around the reservoir. The full circuit of nearly 30 miles including frequent stops to enjoy the scenery or a pub lunch, is a great day out. Rutland Water offers fishing, bike hire, sailing, boat cruises, nature reserves where you can watch the famous Rutland ospreys and even a climbing wall for the kids. Oakham, the county town is a pretty market town. The only other town in the county is the distinctly charming Uppingham, with its honey-coloured buildings. From our cottages in Rutland there are also many picturesque villages to discover.
