Rutland - Hotels - England

Rutland is the smallest county in England, and is mentioned in the Doomsday Book in 1086. There is a castle that was a Norman manor house that has a collection of horse shoes that were collected from visiting nobility and also has some of the Royal Family’s. Around this is the Market Place, Butter Cross and Stocks with many small shops that sell high quality goods.

There are plenty of things to do in Rutland. For those who like water sports you should make your way to Rutland Water here you can go canoeing, rowing or paddling in the sheltered creek and harbour at Whitewell. There is also the chance to sailboard or boat strike across the reservoir. Along with cycling and walking around the water or fishing.
