Primrose Cottage

About this property

Rockingham 1.4 miles. Tucked away in the peaceful village of Caldecott near Rockingham in Rutland, is this delightful, restored cottage, Primrose Cottage. Enjoying a wonderful location with easy access to Rutland Water and Corby town centre, Primrose Cottage is a fantastic pet-friendly dwelling for couples or a family of four, plus their canine companion who are looking to explore the East Midlands. Step into the well-equipped kitchen, where the budding chef of the group will have all they need to conjure up delicious feasts, ready to enjoy at the dining table for four as you make plans for the days ahead. On warmer days, why not fire up the barbecue and dine alfresco out in your private garden? As the evening grows darker, retreat to the plush sofa where you can gather your loved ones to watch a film on the TV, whilst your pooch takes up a prime position in front of the woodburning stove. When sleep calls, climb the stairs up to the first floor where you can choose from two well-presented bedrooms, a double and a twin, to catch your rest in. In the morning, wake-up tired eyes with a revitalising shower before rustling up a home-cooked breakfast before embarking on your adventures. Explore your surroundings where just a short drive away you will find The Castle Inn, which offers a tasty menu and local ales, perfect for when you fancy a night off from the kitchen. Continue onto Rockingham which offers a good selection of pubs and restaurants, as well as the stunning Rockingham Castle with Tudor sitting rooms, which is a popular venue for weddings. Corby is your next stop where you enjoy idyllic picnics in the Corby Central Park with a charming boating lake, make a splash at the Corby International Pool or test out your swing at the excellent Priors Hall Golf Club. Be sure to check out the surrounding attractions of the 17th-century English Heritage Kirby Hall and the medieval English Heritage Lyddington Bede House, followed by a wildlife rich walk through the Lyddington Meadow Nature Reserve. Make a stop at Market Harborough, where you can delve into history at the local museum, take a leisurely stroll through Welland Park or enjoy riverside dining at a fantastic selection of restaurants. For a taste of city life, head to Leicester where you will find a remarkable cathedral, the National Space Centre and De Montfort Hall. Don’t miss out on a stay at Primrose Cottage.
