Rutland Water Cruises

Good experience sailing from Whitwell, lasting about 45 minutes with commentary along the way telling us about the history & construction of the reservoir, alot more of the reservoir could be seen ahead at the point we turned to go back. Drinks on board were reasonable priced & staff very friendly & safety conscious. There's some lovely things & wildlife to see, although at £15.50 per person on top of the car parking fee, it can soon add up to an expensive day.

Great activity, kind and helpful staff. If the weather is nice it’s absolutely an amazing and calm guided tour which takes around an hour. Come before or after the tourists trip and it won’t be busy. Try the cafe too!

Had an absolutely wonderful time at Rutland Cruises, aboard the Rutland Belle! The boat itself is lovely and offers fantastic views of Rutland Water – we especially appreciated how well the rutland belle is equipped, allowing large wheelchairs access to the lower inside deck and out on the bow of the boat. What really made the trip special was how friendly and welcoming all the staff were. From the moment we booked to when we stepped off the boat, everyone was so helpful and cheerful. The commentary was interesting too! Considering the experience, the prices are really good value. We felt we got a lot for our money. Highly recommend Rutland Cruises for a delightful day out – we'll definitely be back!
