Well designed sculpture, which provides a nice contrast to the pretty natural surroundings (though the immediate area here close to the parking is a bit more 'designed' than other parts along the coast.

Excellent Tea, Cake and View

easy

Cyclists welcome, closed on Mondays

To build the railway here cretainly was a challenge for the engineers and builders - a lot of tunnels and slopes to overcome. In the end it looks great to see how the railway winds through this landscape.

Great place with great views

In the second half of 1979 the International Arts Foundation commissioned the sculptor Alexander to produce a large-scale sculpture for Rutland Water. The cost was £50,000 and the site chosen by the landscape artist who designed Rutland Water was the then rather bleak Sykes Lane picnic site. It was cast in London and was then the largest bronze sculpture of modern times.

This iconic church is Rutland's most famous landmark. It was saved from the water and is now open for guided tours that recount the history of this beautiful building and its surroundings and also provides a stunning location for civil weddings and classical concerts.

Quiet cycling road, traffic free lane with two benches for a few moments of peace...

Nice place to sit

Now under new ownership but still a great place to stop in a nice location. Outdoor bike parking which can be overseen from the tables inside. Open 9am-3.30pm (3pm Sun, closed Mon).

Convenient refreshment stop on the main route through the village.

Although there's a cut through road from Cottesmore road to Greetham road, there's no path and it's a narrow 60 mph road. This route is the safest way to reach the bakery from Greetham. There's a footpath the whole way.

Keep your eye open for Rutland Sailing Club Open Day and get free sailing and trips out as well as a lovely traffic free ride.

The garden can get rammed, don't worry, there's another pub a bit further on

Just a pretty site to stop and stay at for a minutes breather

The Great Tower is an extremely large bronze sculpture, standing 10 metres high beside Rutland Water.

The church was built in classical style for the Normanton Hall estate on the site of a 14th-century building. Except for the tower, the medieval church was rebuilt in 1764 by Sir Gilbert Heathcote, 3rd Baronet. The church was de-consecrated in 1970, and was to have been demolished as part of the reservoir construction, as its floor was below the proposed water level. Following a public outcry, the lower half was filled with stone and rubble, and a concrete cap constructed just below the level of the windows.

Great views, great food and plenty of bike racks ✅
