Full of history and bags of character. A great location for walks, within easy distance to Rutland water. Many places to visit from gardens, stately homes and much much more.

Loved the cottage and the welcome was truly wonderful!
We did have problems with Maisie as there is no safe place to let her out as the cottage opens onto the road, also all the area around Rutland water is dogs on leads only so sadly no proper exercise there. We did find a truly wonderful walk around Empingham along the river through plantations of newly planted trees and the most incredible display of wildflowers, excellent!

We stayed at this house for the second time, using it as a base for fishing at the nearby by reservoirs of Rutland, Grafham, and Pitsford. It's a great property, very well equipped and comfortable. Communications with the owners were easy and helpful.

Fabulous, quirky cottage. Everything you could want for a break near Rutland Water, which is in walking distance. The hosts have thought of everything from lots of fluffy towels to a freshly baked loaf of bread to go with the pots of homemade preserves.

We had a wonderful stay at Primrose Hall in November. This is a beautifully restored and very well appointed home in a lovely area of Rutland.
Close to all the amenities and beauty that Rutland Water and surrounding villages has to offer, our hosts Dale and Helen put the icing on the cake with their warm welcome and help for our elderly Labrador during our stay. Some lovely touches of bread, milk, eggs, logs for the fire and all essentials to welcome us and we were set for a cosy, relaxing time.
Scrupulously clean, lovely comfortable bed and inviting surroundings. We couldn't ask for more!
Cannot recommend highly enough- thank you again.

Communication with Dale and Helen was excellent from start to finish. Primrose Hall was even better than the pictures suggested with plenty of room for four adults, a baby and a small dog! It is a beautiful and stylish renovation with countless lovely touches. And to cap it all, we entered to the smell of a freshly baked homemade loaf left for us with other essentials. Really thoughtful. And Empingham itself and the surrounding area is a delight. A perfect few days. Highly recommended. Thank you so much, Dale and Helen.

This is a superbly renovated and maintained cottage that sits close to Rutland Water in a pretty village and beautifully reflects the architecture of the area.
The hosts, Dale and Helen, have thought of pretty much every guest's needs and catered to them; from the ready to light wood burner to the welcome pack and copious information about local amenities and facilities.
Quite simply, we'll be back and for longer!

Beautiful cottage
We had a lovely short break. The village was beautiful and the cottage had everything we needed. The smell of freshly baked bread when we arrived was a lovely touch. Dale was also kind enough to bring us some extra logs for the fire to make our stay even more cosy. Can't fault this property at all, it was a pleasure to stay and Dale made us feel very welcome. Thank you for having us.

Tardis Experience
The property is much more spacious than the outside of the building suggests, and like the Tardis, you have a real time travel experience exploring the history of this unique property. It really is a lovely place in a fantastic location.

Spacious & cosy
The perfect bolt hole to write and cycle. Packed with everything you would probably have in your home, and plenty of books, games and TV for fireside evenings . The house is on the village road, so early morning cars were a slight disturbance, but being in the middle of the village an advantage.
Very spacious property and friendly owners nearby. Would recommend
