A gem of a place

Wonderful one night stay as part of exploring Rutland Water and area over a weekend. Worth staying here for the fabulous food alone (amazing menu and incredibe service). Room was large, clean and comfortable. Lovely peninsula walk (5.5 or 7 mile options) right on the doorstep and a short drive to two nature / bird reserves. Would recommend and we will hopefully be back.

Lunch service on a Friday was poor with an uninspired menu served by an indifferent and sometimes surly team, breakfast Saturday excellent and with friendly natural service - lunch for large group on Saturday was average for both so overall i can only recommend the stay and breakfast , the information and web site grossly over rates the venues culinary and service capabilities - i dont say this lightly as im a Food and Beverage Director so know about challenges but feel honest feed back is better than the usual blah blah blah everything was wonderful when it wasnt

Fun charming stay in a beautiful location

The Finch team gathered for us a jug of shampoo to utilise their gorgeous big baths but could have been better if they were already their of a bath bomb etc. We have booked again for Valentines weekend because it very clean, great location, food and drink was great and the service was excellent.
