Fantastic little house in Empingham
We stayed at this house for the second time, using it as a base for fishing at the nearby by reservoirs of Rutland, Grafham, and Pitsford. It's a great property, very well equipped and comfortable. Communications with the owners were easy and helpful.

Super cottage & great hosts
Fabulous, quirky cottage. Everything you could want for a break near Rutland Water, which is in walking distance. The hosts have thought of everything from lots of fluffy towels to a freshly baked loaf of bread to go with the pots of homemade preserves.

Wonderful break in a beautiful property
We had a wonderful stay at Primrose Hall in November. This is a beautifully restored and very well appointed home in a lovely area of Rutland. Close to all the amenities and beauty that Rutland Water and surrounding villages has to offer, our hosts Dale and Helen put the icing on the cake with their warm welcome and help for our elderly Labrador during our stay. Some lovely touches of bread, milk, eggs, logs for the fire and all essentials to welcome us and we were set for a cosy, relaxing time. Scrupulously clean, lovely comfortable bed and inviting surroundings. We couldn't ask for more! Cannot recommend highly enough- thank you again.
