As we simultaneously celebrate #WorldWaterDay, we show appreciation for Rutland Water and the vital role it plays in creating many things to do for locals and visitors alike.
But let's not forget the many things we have to offer away from the water, from railways and museums to mini-golf and bike rides, there really is something for everyone!
