America Lodge is a lovely 19th century spacious farmhouse which enjoys a secluded location by the Chater Valley in Rutland, England's smallest county. Ideal for a rural retreat break and surrounded by stunning countryside, this property has been recently graded as high 3 star self-catering accommodation. America Lodge can sleep up to 9 people across 4 bedrooms - an ideal size for families and small groups of walkers. The house is surrounded by a large garden where children can play safely. Beyond the garden are fields and a paddock where sheep, calves and other farm animals may be spotted. We can make arrangements for children to visit our nearby farm to collect eggs that our chickens have laid. Guests also have the opportunity to purchase some top quality meats from our farm to enjoy during their holiday.
This is a most pleasant and green area, suitable for walking, cycling, fishing and sightseeing. Families may wish to visit Burghley House at Stamford to view the tame herds of deer. There are so many historic market towns and pretty villages around us that you will want to return to discover more of Rutland.
