Rutland is rich in things to do for everybody, whether you are visiting as a couple or a family.

A wide variety of attractions spread countywide ensures that you'll have more than enough to do during a weekend break in England's smallest county.

Most people tend to head towards Rutland Water and the many things to do around the shores of the famous reservoir.

Cycle hire, fishing, walking, birdwatching, rock climbing and sailing are just some of the things you might enjoy.

And who could visit Rutland Water without spending time at the famous Normanton Church - right on the water's edge.

However, spread your wings a little further afield and you'll find there is plenty on offer in the towns and villages of Rutland.

From historic sights such as Lyddington Bede House to the informative Rutland Railway Museum near Cottesmore, our guide picks out the attractions we think you'll want to see.

Wherever possible we try to provide web links so you can find out more information such as opening times, admissions prices and what you can expect to see.
