Plenty of cutlery and crockery for self catering, Nice private garden and BBQ if you are lucky with the weather. I would have liked a couple more mirrors upstairs but itâs only a tiny problem easily solved. I would definitely recommend the cottage and the area.

Clean, comfortable and welcoming. Dog friendly with secure garden and dog basket and bowls provided. Loved having the wood burner in the evening. Set in a pretty village with lots to do nearby. We enjoyed our Rutland experience and would recommend the cottage and county.

It is totally modern and renovated to the highest quality. We have just spent a lovely week there and will definitely return. The village is also beautiful with lots of walks for the dog and very friendly people. The pub is very good for food also. Well done Rose Cottage, I had a very restful break
