Autumn at Rutland Water

I thought I would share this photo I took on Sunday from the banks of Rutland Water. These crisp, sunny days by the reservoir in the autumn are some of my favourite and it’s a real treat that this view is just a short walk from Puddle Cottage. While it isn’t the ‘peak’ season, the bike hire, fishing lodge and sailing club are all open and the Rutland Belle is still running but the shores of the reservoir are much quieter.

So why choose Puddle Cottage? The cottage is just a short walk to the banks of Rutland Water, including Rutland Sailing School and Rutland Water Fishing Lodge as well as being within 8 miles of the market towns of Oakham, Stamford and Uppingham making it an ideal base to explore the area.The cottage, which has been recently refurbished and awarded a 4 star rating by Quality in Tourism, includes facilities such as a dishwasher, tumble dryer, flat screen TV with DVD player and Freeview, and WIFI which is available to guests free of charge.
