A basic site with nice views
Armley Lodge FarmWe had a little difficulty with access to the site - it is at the end of the promontory road and the roadworks in Hambleton made it difficult to get through. There is a large Co op that has fuel too nearby which was convenient. The grass on the site was too long.
Comment from the Club:
Thank you for leaving a review and we are glad you enjoyed the views. Due to the wet weather it has not been possible for the CL Owners to cut the grass. Please be assured the grass is usually well kept.
Beautiful but basic
Armley Lodge FarmThe situation of this CL is very convenient for access to the cycle path around Rutland Water and the views are excellent. Access is easy and you can pitch wherever you like. There is no information re local places of interest and we did not see the owner. Payment is left in a box in the porch of the house. The grass was long which was not ideal.
Comment from the Club:
Thank you for your review and we are glad you enjoyed the lovely views from Armley Lodge Farm. The CL Owner has been in touch as they would like to address your concerns. As they are a working farm they are not always available to greet guests on arrival. All guests are advised of this and are also made aware that there is always someone available if needed and contactable by phone. Due to the wet weather it has not been possible for them to cut the grass. Please be assured the grass is usually well kept.
Lovely views of Rutland Water
Armley Lodge Farm
Greeted on arrival by the owner, really pleasant and very accommodating.
Decent sized field, which meant plenty of room between each outfit. Views over the water and fields were lovely.
As previously stated this is a working farm, but don't let that put you off.
A short walk will get you on the cycle route which goes round the water.
A short drive into Oakham for shops and restaurants.
Will definitely return
A beautiful spot with views of Rutland Water
Armley Lodge Farm
We had a lovely stay here, what a beautiful spot, wonderful views of the water and you can walk down to the water and follow a footpath into the village to the Pub no matter which direction you walk (it is a fair walk but we like that - earns you the refreshment). Easy access to Oakham and other villages by car. Could also cycle into Oakham if wanted. Good sized field so we had lots of space. Water and electric as promised. Nice to see the ponies each day in the field on the way in and out. We didn't see a lot of the owners but did say hello in passing but that suited us fine and I'm certain had we any questions that they would have been very helpful.
Great CL
Armley Lodge Farm
We were given a warm welcome on arrival by Mr. And Mrs. Blackwell. The site is on a working farm (as stated) so expect a little noise during the day but this did not distract from our stay at all. The view over Rutland Water is perfect and the active local bird population kept us entertained. The site is well placed for visiting Oakham and the surrounding area as well as the reservoir. We can recommend the Grain Store in Oakham for lovers of real ale and the food is good as well. We will return.
