“Superb accommodation in beautiful setting - very much a ‘Scandi’ style retreat, with excellent security.”

Ideal as a retreat from the everyday. Only complaint was that the beds are rock hard - which could easily be rectified. The level of quality of everything else was superb - these days, the comfort of beds should not be an issue, but it was here.

“Loved our stay at Burley.”

The accommodation was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The only thing was that the garden area wasn't enclosed so that the dog could wander on her own. A side from that we will definitely be booking again next year.

“The lodge organised through Sykes was just as described and had everything we expected, but the second bedroom notified as a twin, we found on on arrival was made up as a double.”

This was resolved by the local Hotel staff quickly and simply, but they commented that they normally were advised, but in this case no instruction was given. This did not spoil our stay in any way, just feedback in case the booking process could be improved in that respect. Otherwise, the overall booking process was simple and straightforward, communications and information was clear and we had a great stay in a really good location. Thank you.

Stamford 7.8 miles; Melton Mowbray 14.4 miles

Exton offers a typical English village setting, with its traditional, stone buildings crowded around the green, in the East Midlands county of Rutland. The Fox and Hounds public house overlooks the tree-planted green, a former 17th century coaching inn, oozing with character, offering cosy winter evenings around the fireplace and lazy summer days out in the beer garden. To the south of the village are Barnsdale Gardens, created by Geoff Hamilton for the BBC's Gardeners' World, and the Barnsdale Hall Hotel and Country Club. Oakham is the nearest town, boasting a combination of stone and thatched buildings, a range of shops, as well as pubs, bars and eateries to choose from. There is also a local history museum, a 12th century castle and a 14th century church. The Rutland Water Nature Reserve offers watersports, a small water adventure park, birdwatching, a sailing club and fishing opportunities, with the Rutland Water Golf Course overlooking the lake. The train station provides access to the cities of Nottingham and Leicester with shops to browse and architecture to admire. The market town of Stamford is a mere stone's throw away, with its attractive Georgian-style buildings used in the 2005 Pride & Prejudice film, independent shops, cosy pubs and a range of restaurants. Melton Mowbray is further afield, with more amenities to explore. Home to the famous pork pie, this town also offers The Regal Cinema, Melton Theatre and the Melton Carnegie Museum.
