Lovely weekend stay in Plum Cottage, Cottesmore

The property has been beautifully decorated and equipped very tastefully. The owner John and Jess their agent have been a delight to deal with from the start of the booking process to the end of our arranged check out. The location of the cottage is perfect for exploring Rutland and very convenient for local walks, village shop (inc post office), chip shop and The Sun Inn (lovely friendly pub with excellent food).

Cottage really excellent. Everything perfect.Would recommend.Only improvement-Garden gate needs to be more secure so dogs cannot get onto road.And maybe a sunshade or pergola in garden would make it even more perfect
