Stretton Lakes is 4 miles away which offers free fishing for guests of Victory Cottage, set within 120 acres of farmland and boasting six coarse fishing lakes for you to enjoy from dawn to dusk. The picturesque village of Cottesmore enjoys a beautiful thatched village pub, only a 2-minute walk, fish and chip restaurant, village store/post office, lovely village walks, a playing field and a Holistic Health Centre offering acupuncture, Chinese massage, beauty treatments, herbal and nutritional therapy; perfect for some relaxation and pampering. Just 5 miles is Rutland Water and is a great day out for everyone.

For the adrenaline seekers, why not have a go at sailing, canoeing, windsurfing, golf, mini golf and rock climbing, or for the more sedate, there are many walks, great places for fishing, or spotting the local birds from the bird watching centre. Cycling is also a very popular activity in the area with miles of country roads and cycling tracks.

The market towns of Oakham, Uppingham and Stamford are close by and they all have a range of shops, pubs, tea rooms and restaurants. There is so much more to discover with lots of castles and stately homes in the area, including Burghley House, which is famous for its international horse trials, 14 miles away. Belton House 19 miles, Belvoir Castle 23 miles, Rockingham Castle 16 miles, Grimsthorpe Castle 17 miles and Elton Hall 21 miles all within driving distance. A little further afield is Althorpe House, Princess Diana’s resting place, as well as Boughton House and Cottesbrooke Hall.
