Dove Cottage

Stamford

East Midlands, Lincolnshire, Rutland

This cosy, traditional stone cottage, Dove Cottage is the perfect retreat for two, nestled in the picturesque village of Ketton. Just five miles from Rutland Water, guests can enjoy scenic walks, cycling adventures, or simply relax beside this stunning reservoir surrounded by lush woodlands. The historic market town of Stamford, renowned for its beautiful stone architecture and frequently featured in film and television, is less than four miles away. For railway enthusiasts, the Nene Valley Steam Railway offers a nostalgic journey through the picturesque countryside just 10 miles from the cottage. Meanwhile, the magnificent Burghley House, with its 16th-century architecture, private art collection, and 300-acre deer park, is only six miles away.

Step inside to an open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area full of character, featuring exposed beams and a traditional fireplace with a wood-burning stove. The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing meals, and the comfy sofa offers the perfect spot to unwind after a day exploring the local area. Patio doors open onto a charming courtyard, extending your living space outdoors.

Upstairs, the king-size bedroom is thoughtfully furnished for a restful night’s sleep, with an en-suite bathroom offering both a bath and a shower, complemented by stylish fittings.
