This site is very easy to access from the main road and the benefit is immediately apparent on arrival. We were given clear instructions prior to our arrival and the pitches are clearly numbered and very spacious. The services are located centrally in an impeccable covered shelter. Jason arrived to welcome us (as he did so with every new arrival) providing local information and his direct contact details.The site is quite high up so the view of the lake isn't that great from the pitches however there is a raised wooden lookout platform/shelter in the lower corner of the site which allows for a fantastic view particularly enjoyable with a glass of something to watch the sunsets. The access to the circular cycle/walking perimeter track is adjacent to the site however those wishing to cycle back up to the camp site need some strong legs or, like us, some turbo battery assistance. The area is outstanding and the local pubs including the Fox owned by Jason are excellent. Thankyou!

Sadly we had only booked two nights but we absolutely loved our stay here and will definitely be back to explore further. The pitches were really well spaced and we loved the fact that it is an adult only site. As a motorhome with all our own facilities on board, the site had everything we needed. It was lovely and quiet. Jason the owner came to meet us and was delightful - he and his partner clearly take great pride in the site and it is really appreciated. Thanks for also providing the perfect weather!

Friendly staff ,Jason came over to welcome us back , and arranged 2 pitches adjacent for our family There were no children on site which made it peacefull and a its so near the waters edge for a few walks ,

On the day before our arrival to the Paddock I contracted conjunctivitis in my eyes and so spoke to a representative of the campsite who gave me a personal phone number to call which I could only leave a message on his voicemail asking if a could possibly put my stay back a few days and extend those days retrospectively .Unfortunately no return call came so our stay at The Paddock didn’t materialise, perhaps customer service could be improved to the standard of other comparable sites.

Very impressed with this site. Well laid out and maintained with wide spacing between pitches. Warm welcome from the owner and given local info pack. Was very quiet location whilst we were there 13-17 July. There are two large neighbouring campsites which were empty but would check for local events before booking again just in case these were busy/noisy. Good access down lane to Rutland Water and reserve. Cycle track around reservoir was a lot rougher than expected for our small wheeled bikes, no doubt ok for full mountain bikes.

Another delightful stay at The Paddock. Jason’s high standards and attention to detail are second to none. The site is impeccably maintained as always. Friendly visit from Jason to ensure all’s well is always welcome. Beautiful area, can highly recommend The Fox for a good meal.

A newly installed recycling and waste area is a really good addition to the site and even after only a few months installation, there are birds nesting in the roof space.The trees and shrubs are maturing nicely, giving excellent coverage for many birds and animals to thrive, including ducks, hares and partridge.I doubt it's possible to find a more peaceful site, the pitches all very roomy, and you're (almost) guaranteed a stunning sunset

Lovely small site, beautiful position to enjoy the area next to Cycle and walking tracks around the lake, proximity to Egleton bird reserve. Very convenient for visiting the Bird Fair. Close to the lovely country town of Oakham. Lots of interesting pubs and restaurants in the area. Well worth a visit!

We have stayed at The Paddock several times and have always enjoyed the wide space between the pitches, the excellent facilities and the peace and quiet of the site. The location so close to the wildlife reserves is a bonus. We look forward to our next stay at The Paddock.

Another fantastic weekend at the The Paddock! It is literally the gem in Rutland. A lovely clean and well maintained campsite and where the owners Jason and Brian make you feel so welcome! An amazing place to unwind and in close proximity of all you need in Rutland! We can't wait to stay again!
