Cottage vacation rentals in Rutland Water

We stayed in Oak Cottage at Elms Farm Cottages and couldn’t have been happier with our choice. Carol was a fantastic host - very communicative, flexible and helpful and the cottage was perfect - very comfortable and with excellent amenities - all the small things taken care of. We would highly recommend staying here and would love to come back one day.

Bumblebee was an excellent property. Ideal for my husband and I our 2 adult children and their partners .....not forgetting Dave the dog to have a family get together. The property was spacious, clean and extremely well equipped. The beds were comfortable. The addition of an enclosed garden, hot tub and outdoor cooking area was great. There were thoughtful additions such as a welcome pack and items for pets. The surroundings were peaceful. Can't recommend highly enough it is certainly somewhere we intend to return in the future.

We had the most wonderful stay. The garden is absolutely amazing. If you have little ones, this place is the one! Adam was a wonderful host, so responsive and helpful. The house was super clean, everything was so easy to work/find. We would hesitate to stay here again. Brilliant value for money, we had the best time. Thank you again Adam and Hannah.

An absolute gem of a getaway, perfect place to rest and relax in idyllic countryside surroundings. Very comfy bed and such a cute little place. Wood Fired hot tub made star gazing pretty special. Would definitely book again.

What a lovely few days at Rose Cottage with our family. Rodalyn was the perfect host, friendly, helpful and accommodating. On arrival we were welcomed with a thoughtful hamper of treats which the kids loved, the private “garden” is HUGE & was great for the children and our dog to explore, we loved the hot tub, outdoor speakers & lights. The full bookshelf and games in the Cottage were great to keep the kids entertained in the evening too. Also, thanks Rodalyn for the walk recommendation which we all enjoyed. Hope to be back again soon.

I can not recommend highly enough. My son and myself stayed for 3 nights, everything was exactly as described. We felt instantly at home. We shall be returning, many thanks for having us in your lovely lodge.

Home from a 1 night stay with my partner for his birthday and our 1 year old. The cottage is beautiful and so homely. Gorgeous interiors as if from Pinterest. very clean throughout. The hosts kindly accommodated a slightly earlier check in. Cot and linen provided for the baby. The bed is super comfy. Hot tub very clean and private garden is lovely, with a little fish pond which our daughter loved to watch. Ideal location for a relaxed stay with an excellent pub a couple minutes away.

This is a great base to explore Lincoln, Newark and Sherwood Forest. Lots of walks and history in the area. Philip recommended 2 great pubs, Prince Rupert in Newark and Hare & Hounds in Fulbeck. We also really enjoyed the Alpacca Farm and Doddington House. Philip lives close by and came to greet us on arrival. He is very friendly and helpful. The hot tub was great and accommodation very clean.

Wow! What a beautiful place! Jo was great and very welcoming, the home was lovely, clean and perfect for what we needed it for! Would absolutely recommend to anyone, we will 100% be back, thank you!

Honestly one of the most beautiful places we have stayed, we had everything we needed and more and the personalised touches were just lovely! So cosy, clean and we felt so at home - we are already planning a trip back! 🩷

Amazing stay with such a welcoming environment and comfortable touches. We highly recommend and will ourselves definitely be returning for another visit. 5 STAR!!

A beautiful and very cosy cottage in a lovely little village. Elizabeth was fantastic from the moment of booking, really friendly and helpful. The hamper was a really nice touch and bringing treats for the dogs was very thoughtful, they definitely approved! Ample parking, very easy to check in. The cottage was absolutely immaculate. Reclining sofas, very comfortable beds, a great shower. Well equipped kitchen. The garden was perfect for our dogs. There was not one single fault with our stay and I was rather sad to leave! We will definitely be visiting again. Thank you so much 💕

Cosy cottage is just what it says on the tin. Its super cosy! Host Laura is very helpful and understanding. We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend break in Crich. There is so much to see and do thats interesting. The village has quite an extensive range of amenities and services for such a small place. Thoroughly recommend Cosy Cottage and Crich. We plan to return.

Had a great stay at Stoop Cottage. Really appreciated Rachel's thoughtful extra touches. Location was excellent - great local shop, lots of places to eat and drink nearby and fantastic walks for the dog. A very relaxing stay and hope to be back.

Lovely little cottage, had an amazing time. Beautiful view out the window and the little extra gift was the icing on the cake.

We had a lovely stay at Dee’s cottage – it was everything we hoped for and more. The place was peaceful, spotless, and beautifully kept, making it the perfect countryside escape. Dee was a kind and attentive host who made us feel very welcome, and her local recommendations were super helpful. We really enjoyed our time here and would absolutely return!

We enjoyed staying at honeypot cottage. The large garden is a sun trap and plenty of logs for the log burner. Simon and Caroline were good on the comms too. Thank you

We had such a great stay. The cottage was so pretty and had everything that was needed (and more). It was clean and very cosy. The area was beautiful and local pub (The Swan) was very welcoming. We took our bikes and visited Bradgate Park, beautiful. The perfect long weekend away!

a lovely cosy, little cottage for a long weekend away competing my horse at a local equestrian centre. the self check in and check out facilitated late arrival and early departure. It was a lovely and close refuge for us between events. many thanks to kirsty for providing such a clean and comfy cottage

lovely stay jackie is very friendly! the cottage is sweet, and full of original historic character fitting the village... which is worth exploring then you can snuggle up by the log fire in the cosy living room! the place has all modern appliances & is great for dogs with beautiful enclosed back garden, just watch out for the main road... We'll be back soon. Bonnie loved it :) xXx

We can’t recommend the Cottage enough, it was everything we needed and more! A tranquil, peaceful setting with a beautifully equipped cottage. We arrived exhausted and it was just perfect. Dinah was so helpful and friendly and had left us with all the basics we needed and even fresh flowers! Thank you so much!

We had an amazing time at the Cottage! The bed was super comfy, and the whole place is incredibly peaceful – perfect for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy some quiet time. The surroundings are beautiful, and Angela was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommended for a relaxing getaway.

Returning to this lovely Airbnb was like stepping back into a great memory. Everything was just as cozy, clean, and welcoming as we remembered. The space had that same comforting charm, and it felt even better this time around. It was so nice to relive the calm, the vibe, and all the little touches that made our last stay special. Truly a home away from home. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience—we’ll definitely be back!
