The Barndsale
Nestled in the picturesque countryside of Rutland, the UK9s smallest
county, Barnsdale Hotel ofers a charming getaway for the more active
traveller. Surrounded by oelds with wild boars, walking trails, cycling
routes, and situated within a short distance of Rutland waters, Barnsdale is ideal for those who want both relaxation and activity.
This former hunting lodge has been transformed, paying tribute to its
history and to the distinctive local area: the old blends with the new, the
reoned with the comfortable, and the local with the worldly.
With 45 colourful, warm and inviting bedrooms and suites, designed by
London based duo, Taylor & Turner, the accommodations at Barnsdale
are nothing short of exceptional. Each room is tastefully decorated,
blending modern amenities with traditional charm.
Casual, all-day dining is available at the bright Orangery and the 1760
dining room. Traditional favourites like osh and chips and chicken
Milanese mingle with upscale seasonal oferings. A must-try is the zesty
caulinower popcorn tossed in teriyaki and chili, a signature dish of the
Signet Collection - while for those with a sweet tooth, the indulgent
Nutella bomboloni is a temptation not to be missed.
With plans to build its very own Health Club, which will boast an indoor
pool, mud rasul, salt notation room, steam & sauna, state-of-the-art
gym, three treatment rooms and beauty salon alongside a farm shop and
e-bike hire, we think Barnsdale is one to watch.
