The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory, situated in the peaceful village of Belton in Rutland. Located just inside the border of 'England's Smallest County'.

Traditional farmhouse style bed and breakfast with En-suite rooms with TV & Tea/coffe making facilities- Economy & family rooms also available.

We offer traditional farmhouse style bed and breakfast accomodation and can provide packed lunches by prior arrangement.

The majority of rooms are located in the Stable Annexe and all have en-suite showers and toilet.

A superior twin room with en-suite bath is available in the Main House, as well as economy rooms with shared facilities.

All rooms have a washbasin, colour television and tea & coffee making facilities.

The guest accommodation is completely separate from the owners part of the house so guests will not feel as though they are intruding.

We have some horses and a small flock of sheep with lambs in the spring.

The house with its large garden and grounds stand in an elevated position overlooking the Eyebrook Valley and rolling Rutland countryside on the edge of the old and charming conservation village in the village centre where there is a public house and a church parts of which date back to circa 1190.

Things to do
The Rockingham Racetrack, to the more serene museums, farm and country parks, forest walks and countryside rambles, Rutland has something to offer everyone.

For gardeners we have some excellent local gardens and garden centres and of course Geoff Hamilton's famous television gardens at Barnsdale, a must for every visitor.

If you are feeling energetic you can cycle, ride a horse or walk some of the beautiful local and long distance footpaths, including the Viking Way, Hereford Way, Leicestershire or Rutland Round.

The more adventurous may wish to challenge the 235 miles of the Macmillan Way, opened on 25th April 1996 by Sir David Steel in aid of cancer relief.

Rutland Water
The vast expanse of Rutland Water is less than fifteen minutes away - where the list of activities is endless.

You can sail, canoe or windsurf, with excellent facilities for all abilities. Cycle hire is available and a circuit of the reservoir is an ideal way to explore the area.

Try your hand at Fly Fishing, from boat to shore, or test your skill at climbing on 'The Rock Block'.

Visit the aquatic and butterfly sanctuary or the internationally renowned bird centre or simply relax and see Rutland from the water on the 'Rutland Belle' pleasure cruiser.
