Bed and Breakfast Description |
| |
|
Welcome to The Lodge, situated right on the lake shore at Barnsdale, just a short stroll from the Barnsdale Lodge and Barnsdale Hall Hotels. Totally renovated, fully modernised and extended but keeping the original Lodge character, we offer luxury ensuite accommodation with outstanding views and access to the biggest lake in the smallest county in England. All rooms have private ensuite facilities have tea and coffee making facilities. Plus we have a large exclusive guest lounge with stunning views over the water on 2 sides where you may relax, watch tv, take in the breathtaking sunsets etc. Cozy log fires in the colder months. A great Barnsdale breakfast is served from 8.00-9.30am or by arrangement should you need to be out fishing on the lake or hoping to see that early morning Osprey over the Lake just 25 metres away. Should you require a more leisurely start, we can accommodate that as well. |

Rutland Water Attractions |
| |
The Lodge is approximately 5 minutes from Oakham the ancient county town of Rutland, and 10 minutes from beautiful Stamford. Bird watchers will find good areas close to the house [we see Ospreys most years now] and we are very close to the bird and nature reserve at Egelton. Rutland Water has S.S.S.I status and is renowned as one of the best places in the UK for bird watching. The British Birdwatching Fair is held annually at Rutland and we are happy to take bookings for this prestigious event.
For general holidays, we are in the middle of one of the most beautiful areas of England, the ancient county of Rutland is famous for it's rolling countryside, timeless villages with thatched cottages, village greens and traditional pubs. Visit the towns of Oakham and Uppingham, and the picturesque unspoilt villages of Hambleton, Wing, Exton, Braunston etc. and Stamford, a lovely old market town, is only a few miles away.
For the fisherman Rutland Water is world famous for the quality of it's trout fishing and whether the fish are obliging or infuriating you will always have a rewarding day from the bank or boat. You will find a good selection of angling books etc. and we've decorated one room with pictures, flies etc. with the angler in mind [we are all fishers in this house]. Just a short stroll away from the house are Barnsdale Road End, Barnsdale Creek, Steep Bank [Cardiac Hill??], Dickinson's Bay, Burley Reach etc. all very good hot spots, and don't forget Tim Appleton's for the big Brownies! Rob, who fishes most days can usually let you know the latest method, flies or catching place, some days you can see fish rising from the house! We offer a drying room, freezer, a packed lunch and smoking facilities if required. All tackle and flies, from size 22 dries to some more elaborate concoctions, are available from the fishing lodge at Normanton. |
