Sycamore Lodge is an inviting single-storey log cabin resting on the fringes of Greetham, Rutland, offering a welcoming retreat for families, friends, and couples. With a private hot tub, sauna, and access to a shared indoor heated swimming pool, there are plenty of ways to unwind throughout your stay.
Step inside and discover the open-plan living space, where the kitchen is well equipped for your self-catering needs with an electric oven, induction hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine. Prepare something tasty for the group before gathering around the dining table to catch up over dinner. Afterwards, settle into the sitting area with a good book, switch on the TV, or choose a film on the DVD player for an easy-going evening indoors.
When it is time to rest, make your way to one of two well-presented bedrooms. The king-size benefits from an en-suite walk-in shower room, while the twin provides an inviting space for additional guests. A family bathroom completes the interior, featuring a bath with shower over for a leisurely soak or refreshing rinse, alongside a sauna where you can relax after a busy day.
Continue your downtime outside in the enclosed garden, which offers plenty of opportunity to make the most of warmer weather. Fire up the barbecue for an outdoor feast, stretch out on one of the sun loungers, or gather around the outdoor furniture with a favourite drink. As evening draws in, sink beneath the bubbles of the private hot tub and enjoy a well-earned soak. Guests can also make use of the shared indoor heated swimming pool during their stay.
For your essentials, a shop can be found 3.8 miles away, while the nearest pub is 1.8 miles from the lodge. Rutland Water makes a fantastic destination for a day out, with its waterside setting, wildlife and Normanton Church to discover. Venture into Oakham to wander through the historic town centre and visit Oakham Castle, or spend some time exploring the displays at Barnsdale Gardens. A trip to Stamford offers another enjoyable day out, where you can browse the independent shops and attractive streets before discovering nearby Burghley House and its impressive grounds.
After a day spent discovering Rutland and its surrounding attractions, return to the hot tub, sauna, or shared swimming pool for some well-deserved downtime. Make Sycamore Lodge your base for a memorable getaway in Rutland.
