Rutland Caravan & Camping Park

Alan Rogers Review of Rutland Caravan & Camping Park

Paul and Ruth Hinch and staff run this family-owned site situated in the heart of England’s smallest county – Rutland. The family continue to invest in this excellent site, with an indoor swimming pool and seven luxury lodges to rent opened recently. The pitches (132 for touring units, 20 for tents and 12 seasonal) have electricity 10 amp. They have limited shade and are not fenced. 10 have full services, and hardstanding is provided on 61 pitches. There are two separate pitching areas, one reserved for adults and another for families and a Rally field. The site is beside the village of Greetham (with a footpath from the site), through which the Viking Way and other trails meander. Seven log cabins are available to rent, one of which is dog-friendly. The site is a member of the Caravan and Motorhome Club Affiliated Site Scheme but visitors who are not members of the club are also very welcome.

The village offers much with three pubs, a village shop, post office, sports including tennis, badminton, golf, football and cricket, plus play area for children. Nearby Rutland Water provides sailing, cycling, fishing, rock climbing, aquatic centre and a nature reserve. The location of the site offers visitors the opportunity to explore England’s smallest county, renowned for its picturesque villages and towns. Don’t miss the Lands End Outlet store for great bargains in Oakham. Golfing enthusiasts staying at the Rutland Caravan and Camping Park are spoilt for choice with one of Rutland's finest clubs nearby. Greetham Valley boasts two 18-hole courses, a 9-hole 3 par course, driving range, club house and excellent Pro Shop. Rutland certainly lives up to its motto 'Multim in Parvo', which means 'Much in Little'.
