About this property
Pine Lodge is an inviting solid-timber lodge resting on the outskirts of Greetham, Rutland. Sleeping four guests across two bedrooms, this single-storey retreat is ideal for families, friends, or couples looking to discover the surrounding countryside, with the added treats of a private hot tub and access to an on-site indoor heated swimming pool.
Step inside and make yourself at home in the generous open-plan living space, where you can spend quality time together throughout your stay. The well-equipped kitchen provides everything you need to prepare a delicious meal before gathering around the dining table to eat, chat, and plan the next day's adventures. Afterwards, settle into one of the plush leather sofas and choose a favourite film on the TV and DVD player for a relaxed evening indoors.
When the weather allows, step outside to the private enclosed patio, an ideal spot for enjoying your morning coffee in the fresh air. As evening falls, sink into the private hot tub and enjoy a soothing soak beneath the stars. Guests can also make use of the on-site indoor heated swimming pool, whether starting the day with a swim or taking a dip after an afternoon of exploring.
When it is time to turn in, choose from two beautifully presented bedrooms. The king-size bedroom benefits from its own TV and en-suite shower room, giving guests a private space to freshen up before settling down for the night, while the twin bedroom provides a welcoming place for two further guests. A bathroom offers the chance to enjoy a leisurely soak in the bath, while the heated towel rail adds a welcome finishing touch.
There is plenty to discover beyond Greetham, beginning with the market town of Oakham, where you can step inside historic Oakham Castle, delve into local heritage at Rutland County Museum, or spend a day enjoying the walking, cycling, and waterside scenery of Rutland Water. Make the journey to Stamford and uncover the grandeur of Burghley House, catch an exhibition or performance at Stamford Arts Centre, or learn more about the town's past at Browne’s Hospital. Alternatively, head to Leicester for a fun-filled day exploring the National Space Centre, discovering the story of the last Plantagenet king at the King Richard III Visitor Centre, and admiring Leicester Cathedral. Round off your adventures by returning to Pine Lodge for a well-earned soak in the hot tub.
Tucked away in the rolling countryside, just a short distance from the historic town of Oakham and resting near Rutland Water, is the quaint village of Greetham. Wandering through the village you will find two welcoming pubs, each serving delicious homemade meals and local ales, a well-stocked village shop, perfect for stocking up on essentials, a community centre and and the excellent Greetham Valley Golf Club.

A couple of minor problems didn't spoil our stay. The hob didn't have English instruction and can opener was worse for wear. Just minor issue. And restaurant was closed through out our stay.
