Rutland Lodge
Rutland Lodge offers a well-equipped kitchen with access onto a separate conservatory, as well as a separate dining room which can accommodate upto twenty guests over two long tables. An ornate fireplace also sets the character of the room off beautifully, tipping some of the more traditional charm of the house. Completing the public areas, a separate lounge offers three 2/3 seater sofas, an armchair and separate chairs, together with a freeview TV with DVD player. For more cosy winter nights, a wood burning stove also creates a fantastic atmosphere, and a complimentary basket of logs is provided.
Rutland Lodge offers five bedrooms to sleep upto ten guests, set over two twin rooms, a double bedroom and two king-sized bedrooms. Each room comes complete with TV and DVD player, as well as each with separate en-suite (two with shower units, two with baths, and one with both shower and bath separately). The bedrooms are mainly situated on the first floor, with the exception of one on the ground floor providing for easier access.
For your convenience, there is also a washing machine & tumble dryer in Rutland Lodge which are located in the utility area in the cellar
