Rob made us really welcome and the room was very good. Breakfast was fantastic. Rob went out of his way to show my son round his fishing cabin. Really quiet and comfortable.It is very convenient for the reservoir. Rob had all sorts of tips for getting the most out of Rutland.

My wife & I stayed at the Lakeside B&B for 3 nights. Rob is an excellent host and the beakfast was 1st class, I had Rob's own smoked Trout with Scrammbled eggs on the last morning and it was delicious. Fantastic bird watching break with lovely peaceful villages nearby for evening meals in the local pubs which again were excellent.... More

Rutland is one big stretch of water and Rob knows every inch of it. He got us fully fuelled with a cracking breakfast, then out onto the hunt. Put us on the fish straight away.. Didn't stop catching all day. Loved it!! Thanks

This B&B is a perfect place to stay on the waters edge. The views from our bedroom window and lounge where stunning, and Rob was the perfect host. The guest lounge is large and very comfortable with a log burner roaring for the cooler evenings. Lots of very good reading material including a large volume of the complete history of... More

We stayed at the lodge as a family of 4 and had two adjacent rooms, which were very comfortable. Rob, the owner, was very welcoming and cooked us a tremendous full-English. We used the lodge as a base for cycling right round the lake on day one (took 4 hrs) and then Osprey watching on day two. We would certainly... More

Rob is such a delightful host, you feel you have known him for ages. Nothing is too much trouble, and he is happy to give advice on places to visit and eat. The large lounge, for the sole use of guests, has the most superb views of the reservoir. On our most recent visit, the evenings turned chilly, so Rob... More

Rob, the host, has perfected the art of being friendly without imposing himself on you. We really enjoyed our stay, this is the perfect base to explore Rutland from with cycle hire and walks easily accessible and Stanford, Uppingham and Oakham are all really close. Breakfast was delicious, you will barely have to eat for the rest of the day,... More

We enjoyed two nights over a very chilly Easter weekend at the Lakeside B&B. Rob is a very friendly host, happy to chat but not intrusive at all - and his breakfasts are monumental! The room was comfortable and clean and at a reasonable rate. Recommended.

Thanks for the great review, sorry about the fishermen. Actually we don't get too many early breakfasting fishermen, these were very early risers, I'll keep them quiet next time :) Approx 80% of our guests are non fishers having a break on the water's edge, so it's not usually a problem. Thanks for coming and hope to see you again.... More

Great location to explore the surrounding area of Rutland. Rob is the perfect host with a great sense of fun and made us so welcome. We were a party of 4... More
