About Victory Cottage

Victory Cottage has everything you could wish for in a country holiday cottage. From its thatched roof to its rural views and peaceful village address in Cottesmore, the pet-friendly holiday home comfortably accommodates five guests in three bedrooms with two bathrooms. Families, friends and couples love Victory Cottage for its layout, the sunny, enclosed south-facing garden and a location within a few minutes walk of the welcoming Sun Inn (great for Sunday lunch!) and the village shop, and a short drive from the beautiful shores of Rutland Water.

Cottesmore is a picturesque village in Rutland, surrounded by glorious countryside with lots of attractions on the doorstep. It's a community where the locals know each other by name, and visitors can enjoy the gentle pace of rural life, which still revolves heavily around the church, pub, and the seasons. There is no place more perfect for a holiday spent rambling along country lanes and footpaths, fishing, golfing, cycling, sailing, and bird watching. Whether your idea of a relaxing break involves a regular pint at the pub or a pampering treatment at Cottesmore's Holistic Health Centre, you'll find exactly what you need to leave Victory Cottage refreshed and rejuvenated.

As a guest of Victory Cottage, you'll enjoy free fishing at Stretton Lakes, and you're within a short drive of Rutland Water Golf Club, Greetham Valley Resort, and the links at Woolfox. Other local attractions include a wealth of water-based activities at Rutland Water, Rutland Rail Museum, Oakham Castle, and the magnificent Burghley House. There's a twice-weekly market in Oakham every Wednesday and Saturday, and an excellent variety of boutiques and specialist shops in Stamford.

Victory Cottage proudly provides 5-star Gold standard accommodations for a memorable stay any time of year. Whether you crave adventure or relaxation, this idyllic rural retreat has everything you need for a refreshing getaway in Rutland.
