Beautiful thatched cottage in a tranquil rural location. We stayed 3 nights and enjoyed walks from the cottage to Rutland water via Empingham, visited Oakham & Stamford for the day and had a lovely family meal at the Fox & Hounds pub which is the only pub/ restuarant in the village. Evenings were spent playing games around a roaring fire - perfect break for us (3 couples) ##### Mark Whelan This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue Nov 1, 2025 #### The cottage is better in real life than the photographs. The cottage is better in real life than the photographs. Great geographical central location for a meet up of 4 old uni friends from different parts of the country. Lovely walks from the front door. Good base to discover the area.
