We had a very happy stay at Lakeside B & B, very attractively situated
beside Rutland Water. Rob, our host, made us very welcome, and nothing
was too much trouble. He gave us lots of help in finding places to visit and
offered helpful tips on where to eat, and printed out information on a
number of places we wanted to visit, which was very helpful. The breakfasts
were fantastic - perfectly cooked, and lots of food - enough to keep
us going for hours.
The accommodation was most attractive, cosy and very comfortable. The
bedrooms were attractively and imaginatively furnished in warm
colours, and we appreciated the hospitality trays. My husband and I stayed
in the four poster room, which had lovely views of Rutland Water.
The guest lounge was very spacious and most comfortably furnished, with a
lovely woodburning stove, which Rob lit for us each evening. This
made us feel very much at home. We enjoyed the luxury of a good-sized TV
with freeview channels. We hope to visit again in the summer,
when we can really appreciate the sunsets over Rutland Water from the large
windows in the lounge.
All in all, a lovely break in a B & B which offers excellent accommodation
with the personal touch.
We would recommend this B & B without hesitation.

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay- great hospitality. Nigel & Liz London

Finding myself in need of accommodation at short notice, I happened upon The Lodge, which is so squirrelled away I didn't know it existed - and I lived in Rutland for many years.
The B&B has a near-perfect setting on the shores of Rutland Water, and the rooms are warm and comfortable. There is also a guest lounge with wonderful views.
The staff are very friendly and helpful, and any problems are dealt with promptly and with a minimum of fuss. And the breakfasts will certainly set you up for the day!

Thanks, great hospitality, will come back. Milo & Michelle , Belgium

Its always the people that make a get away isnt it! Rob's smiley face lit up his lovely house on the banks of Rutland water for us and he made sure we were well and truly looked after. Due to the time of year and the mid-week day we arrived, we had the place to ourselves and made full use of log fire in the large spacious lounge where guests are allowed to use when ever they like. We had wine and cheese in front of the fire whilst watching the tv which was a lovely way to end our day of walking around Rutland and taking in the views.

Easy to find, value for money and the breakfast was outstanding...

"Best breakfast ever, good quality local produce, generous host. Situation is fabulous, great for walking, cycling and fishing, over looking beautiful lake. the accommodation is quiet and relaxed. very hospitable hosts. the breakfast was the very best with great choice of good quality local produce. we look forward to returning next year. There are lots of places of interest in the area and the lodge is just a short trip to some very nice shops and eating places, some in walking distance! Mary Hawes, Braintree

"Beautiful location; lovely room; fantastic breakfast; warm & friendly owner" This is a warm, clean, beautifully furnished B&B in a lovely location by Rutland Water. The breakfast was excellent and served in a friendly, relaxed setting. The owner is welcoming and extremely pleasant and gave the impression that nothing would be too much trouble. A real bonus is the guest sitting room with its large, comfy sofa, woodburning stove and view across the reservoir. I don't usually bother writing reviews but this B&B deserves a mention. I highly recommend it and will definitely return when I revisit the area in the summer. Sally-Anne-Bristol
