The location was ideal for our cycle trip around Rutland Water. We only stayed for two nights, but found everything to be very satisfactory to enable us to do all that we wanted. On recommendation we enjoyed excellent meals at the nearby Horse and Jockey. The accommodation was warm; the big bed was very comfortable and we appreciated the lovely hot shower. Tom was helpful in downloading a map for us for the cycle route. As we left Parsnip Place, we planned a visit to Stamford, which was a huge mistake because there was a big fair taking over the town and it was impossible to park. However, we returned to Rutland Water and visited Barnsdale Gardens - stunning - don't miss it ! Although we had had a coffee and snack earlier in the tea rooms there, after our garden tour, we took our picnic along the shore at Whitwell and we were fortunate to have warm enough weather to enjoy an hour there before our journey home. We packed a lot into our short stay and found Parsnip Place an ideal location - it met all our needs.

Nothing.

The terrace was lovely to watch the wildlife from. Lovely decor. Comfy beds. Friendly family onsite. Lovely dog too 😍 Perfect location to see all Rutland water has to offer. So quiet in the evenings! The Fox pub was just a short drive away served AMAZING food and were so friendly and helpful. Gorgeous pub!

Patchy WiFi BUT we were in a remote location so expected this but had a needy teenager with us!!

Lettuce Lodge was exceptional, modern, clean, cosy with a fully fitted kitchen, comfy beds, beautiful bathroom and cosy private terrace. Perfection!

We didn't want to leave!

Broccoli bottom was a lovely place to stay on a quiet little estate away from traffic noise aside from the occasional train. The cottage was as per the pictures and everything was very clean. There was a nice back garden and we had a visit from the dog each morning when he smelt our breakfast :) - this made my son very happy!

It would have been a nice touch if there had been some extras (e.g. cooking oil, foil, toiletries) in the cottage. I had assumed that for the price shampoo / conditioner / shower gel would be included but it was not. The double bed was also less comfy than I'd hoped - it was hard but the main thing was that you could feel the springs.

super king size bed pleasant sitting out garden with table n chairs dish washing materials provided

Rural location, well equipped, warm and comfortable.

It sleeps 6 but would be a little tight. We are family of 5 and it works.

Helpful owner, well appointed, warm and comfortable.

Living area might be a squeeze if all beds were occupied (6) but we were only 2 so perfect space.

It is situated in a very good location between the main towns and tourist attractions. The complex is very neat and tidy with easy parking away from the main road. We liked all the potted plants and flowers. Despite there being other families staying nearby at the same time, we heard no unnecessary noise. We also enjoyed the wildlife that we could spot in the fields adjacent.

We had a very squeaky bed which could do with either a new mattress or some oil on the springs :)

Comfortable clean and cosy

Location and peace - perfect for us to write
