Gardens in Rutland, England.


Hambleton Hall Hotel, Oakham

Rutland is a tiny county consisting of two towns, Oakham and Uppingham and can be found in the East Midlands next to Leicestershire and Lincolnshire. It’s motto “ Multum in Parvo” means so much in so little which is fitting when you consider it is just 20 miles across but within it’s boundaries there are more than 50 villages many of which are quintessentially English.

There are several historic attractions in and around Rutland. Stately homes such as Burghley House, Belvoir Castle and Rockingham Castle are open to visitors as is the 400 year old Uppingham School; the ancient castle at Oakham and Bishops Palace at Lyddington are all worth a visit.

There are countless pubs, hotels and restaurants full of character and charm where a warm welcome is the rule rather than the exception.
