 This is the best small site we've ever stayed on. Large pitches overlooking Rutland Water and an owner that always pleased to see you. Electrics but no showers but everything else is perfect with peace and quiet and a glorious location.

Plenty of pubs nearby, the owners son owns 2 of them, with one being an easy 1 mile walk, with excellent food. Be sure to book early!

 Fantastic site with an equally fantastic host in the shape of the new slimline version of Brian. On our arrival he said 'go on tell me I've lost weight'.

This was our second visit to this site and we are booked in again to revisit in August.

We managed to see Ospreys, Red Kites and an Owl this time around which was amazing.

The site is immaculately maintained, the bins are always emptied regularly and are separated into cardboard/paper, glass only, doggy poo (in bags) and dry waste.

There are two drinking water points, one grey water and a chemical toilet disposal point.

The pitches are very large indeed and the views across the lake are to die for. Ok there are no toilets or showers, but don't let that put you off, because we tried it and it's definitely worth it to stay here.

There is the Horse and Jockey pub about 15-20 mins walk down the road, which sells amazing real ales and equally good food. There is a garden centre just 5 minutes walk from the site and 5 minutes walk the opposite way down a hill there is the Osprey Centre, within the wildlife reserve, which is £5. 65p for each adult not of pensionable age. They have a live webcam of the Osprey's nest and telescopes available to see for yourself.

We asolutely love this site and can't wait to return again in August.

If you've never been and you like Rutland Water then give it a go and see if you too fall under the spell of 'The Paddock' magic.

 Brian, our host, was a brilliant guy. Local knowledge helped us feel at home straight away.

The site was first class; well manicured grass on this spacious site; individual areas clearly recocognised that were of very ample size.

CDP was easy to use as was the recycling bins and all exceptionally clean.

We will return for sure; the experience was great as was the very many sites to go and visit and to top it off the Horse and Jockey catered for our inner needs with brilliant food and drinks.

 Lovely site very clean and we'll looked after. We had a nice friendly welcome and was told were all the local amenities were. We had a very pleasant stay and visited the Rutland nature reserve and saw the ofsprey project. Definatly recommend this site. The jockey about a mile from the site serves some brilliant food and has a good curry night.

 Another Fantastic long weekend at our favourite site! The owner was yet again very welcoming along with his new friend! :0)

Every time we come here it is a pleasure to be back, the site is always meticulously mown, tidy and a delight!

If anyone is looking for peace, tranquillity, glorious views, and huge individual pitches, this is the place, plus lovely walks for the dogs and is also brilliant for cyclists who want to be a bit more energetic and go on the Rutland Water cycle trial. We're back in a fortnight and can't wait :0))

Thanks Again , missing it already !

Reviewer: Simond68 3 reviews from this member

 A very quiet spacious site, set over several fields one overlooking the reservoir. We visited last August so we could attend the local beer festival at Oakham and found the site perfect for that purpose. Only four miles out of Oakham with the golf Course just down the road as well as Rutland water activity centre just the other side of the reservoir. We decided to come back the following weekend and we were allowed to leave our vans sited for a very cheap amount and our caravans were checked on during that time. Very friendly staff along with a relaxed atmosphere means we will be back this year for sure.

 What a lovely site with a gorgeous view over Rutland water. This site is looked after beautifully

All pitches are as the whole site clean and tidy with plenty of space between them. Brian is a fantastic Owner/warden /maintenance man and very helpful with places to visit and all local knowledge. A handy site for walking/cycling around Rutland water and a lovely Public house 15 minutes up the road for food and drinks. Thoroughly recommended to visit peace quiet and gorgeous views.

Reviewer: Daddymanning 2 reviews from this member

 This site is one of our favourite sites with great views over the water and a short walk to the osprey center which is great for kids I think previous reviews have been of another site nearby because lyndon top is not adult only and there are no electric hookups at lyndon top that's one of the reasons we like it so much being able to pitch pretty much any where in the 7 fields is great there are plenty of taps doted around the place and 2 elsan points its location is great for cycling and walking our kids love going hunting for the rutland panther although I hope we never find it.

 Beautiful views of the water, ideally situated for all the Rutland Water has to offer, large flat pitches, immaculately kept, friendly and informative owner - a fantastic site.

This is obviously a labour of love, Brian is an enthusiastic host who wants you to get the most out of your break without being intrusive. Everything is done with the greatest of care, making it easy to do all the necessary tasks water, waste, re-cycling, toilet etc whilst making the most of the stunning setting.

It was a 25 minute stroll to the Horse and Jockey where we had a lovely meal.

The nicest site we have ever been to.

Reviewer: Sludge1 1 review from this member

 Just returned from this hidden gem (Adults only site), we were there for three nights, I had to think twice about leaving a review, as more the people who know about it will make it difficult for when we want to return ha!ha!.

It has lovely views over Rutland water, the Rutland Water circular cycle route passes the site, very spacious pitches, which are all grass and level,

No toilets or showers, but it has drinking water, waste water, and a elsan point, rubbish bins and re-cycling bins, they now have electric hook ups for 6 caravans.

For bird lovers it is great, the site has a resident little owl, we saw the Ospreys, buzzards and red kites, to many more to mention,

The site owner Jason owns the local pub Horse and Jockey about 15mins walk in the village of Manton, we turned up at the site on spec and we phoned a number off the noticeboard, Jason came up from the pub to show us to our pitch within minutes, his father Brian was very friendly, helpful and very informative, and spends time on site, all in all a great little site, we'll definitely be back.
