重要な歴史と貯水池の景色がある、素敵で静かな村。

Epic descent into the fields..

A great area to visit if you like short, sharp hills. Very scenic and pretty quiet.

Nestled in a serene valley above the river Chater, this grand Tudor house was originally commissioned by Thomas Cromwell on the site of a former priory. Cromwell acquired the estate during the Dissolution of the Monasteries but enjoyed it only briefly before his execution in 1540. Known as Launde, indicating a clearing in the Rutland forest, the house currently serves as a Christian retreat and conference centre for the Leicester and Peterborough dioceses of the Church of England.

Great views and ridable in all but the wettest weather

The Exeter Arms is a lovely drinking pub (no sign of food!) and we were given a warm welcome by the Host, who was unaware of the Pubs lofty status as the highest in Rutland. We both enjoyed a very fine pint of “Inclined Plane” from the local Langton Brewery.

Uppingham is a delightful little market town, filled with honey coloured stone buildings. Uppingham School has been providing education since 1584 and houses one of the largest private theatres in the country.

Enjoy a pint of "Inclined Plane" at, by my reckoning, the highest pub in the whole of little Rutland. A very nice pub it is too, with a warm welcome and excellent beer.
