The Paddock at Rutland water is an adult only touring caravan and motorhome retreat for the discerning traveller. Set in 4 acres, with 15 generous grass pitches you can be assured of a relaxing and peaceful stay.

Walking and cycling around the reservoir is a wonderful way to pass some time whilst taking in the views and spotting rare wildlife.

There are many local amenities and with the villages of Uppingham, Oakham and Stamford a short drive from the site you have everything you need for a memorable visit.

Visit local attractions and eateries, including the award winning quintessential Fox country pub, located only 3 miles away in the quaint village of North Luffenham, booking advisable.

Rutland is the smallest county in the UK and with the appropriate motto Multum-in-Parvo (Much in little) there is something for everyone.

It is because of these reasons we are normally booked up well in advance therefore to ensure you are not disappointed, book your next stay with us today.

As we do not have toilets or shower facilities on site, guest’s need to be self sufficient in this regard. We do however provide chemical toilet emptying facilities, recycling provision, mains water and electric hook up points (optional).

Great site

Perkins, Michael - 31/08/2026

We have now stayed in this site four times and every time we have stayed has been excellent. The first time we started coming that was about ten years ago (back then mostly just field with electric) but now it has every thing we wanted hard standing, electric and no children so just great.The other great thing is you book on line are able to pick the pitch so do not have to rush there as you know the place you would like will not be taken.

Lovely peaceful site

Brian was really helpful when we realised our cable would not reach the hookup and guided us around the site to find a spare to extend ours. Short drive to excellent dog walks and restaurants. Really quiet peaceful site with large plots and plenty of privacy. Will definitely be back! Thank you

Very relaxing

Louth, Janet - 29/08/2026

this is a lovely quiet site with very large pitches and a very nice owner Jason who welcomes you onto the site. Although the site is very close to Rutland water it is more suited for bike riders as it’s a good 2.5 miles before you can get anywhere near the water, due to it being a conservation area. But if you just want a peaceful getaway on a clean and tidy site with maples of space then you cant go wrong. You have to be self contained as there are no toilets or showers, but that’s reflected in the price.

Fabulous spacious pitches

Forrest, Ruth - 28/08/2026

The communication was excellent from the start, I didn’t have to make contact myself everything was smooth. The pitch was excellent with loads of room and great views, we had all the facilities we needed all close by. We were welcomed by the owners and given very useful literature which helped us with our stay and where to go.We like to cycle and the site is perfectly positioned for that as it’s more or less on the Rutland cycle route. Great value for money.I think dogs should have a designated area rather than doing their business everywhere, I know owners pick up very well but it’s still unpleasant watching dogs weeing everywhere, it’s unhygienic.Great site though and we do intend to return.

Response from the owner

26 August 2026

Gary Thank you for your review.As per our website we clearly state that we do not have toilet or shower facilities and cater for Motorhome and Caravan owners who are self contained in this respect. We provide mains water, electric hook up, visitor information, comprehensive recycling and chemical waste emptying facility. We pride ourselves on a well maintained site, with hardstanding pitches each with grass area all of which are of a generous size.Having owned the site for 14 years we receive a significant amount of repeat customers all of which are happy with the amenities that we provide which is reflected in our reviews. To state there are no amenities I feel is rather misrepresentative. Can I suggest that you may wish to study a sites facilities before booking in future.Kind regardsJason

Other caravanners were very friendly. Loved our pitch.I just wish departure time was slightly later as a wet awning would not dry by 1100.
