Rutland Nursery
In May 2023, they opened the doors to a new development of beautifully designed buildings at the rear of the site, nearest to Rutland Water. The space includes a large lifestyle shop, a 100-seater restaurant, and a striking glasshouse.
With a focus on offering something truly unique, they’ve curated a collection of beautiful items inspired by nature, life, art, and creativity — all with the aim of inspiring and informing everyone who visits.
These themes continue through a range of events and workshops held throughout the year in their wellbeing space, The Loft, which also hosts regular yoga and Pilates classes.
