<p>Located on the crest of a hill, the picturesque village of Pickwell is </p><p>the perfect rural retreat, with views of open countryside to the front </p><p>aspect and mature parkland and paddocks to the rear. A distinctive </p><p>landmark on the local landscape is the Grade I listed All Saints Church </p><p>which features a 15th century tower resplendent with four gargoyles, </p><p>lancet windows and a crenellated parapet. </p><p>Pickwell’s rural location combines all the benefits of countryside </p><p>living with ease of access to thriving market towns. Idyllic open spaces </p><p>abound, including Burrough Hill country park, which lies only 3 miles </p><p>from the village. With a well-preserved Iron Age hill fort on the summit </p><p>of a steep-sided promontory, it offers superb views from its grassy top, </p><p>across arable land and villages beyond. The country park at Burrough </p><p>Hill adjoins the Leicestershire Round – a 100 mile long footpath </p><p>encircling the county. </p><p>The award winning Gates Garden Centre and Farm Shop is a popular </p><p>attraction only 2.5 miles from the development. On site, the Hambleton </p><p>Butchery supplies locally sourced meat, a range of fresh produce and </p><p>essentials, including organic milk from a herd of cows that graze in the </p><p>surrounding fields. </p><p>A little further afield, Rutland Water entices locals and visitors from far </p><p>and wide for walking and cycling, fishing and watersports. A man-made </p><p>reservoir located in 4,200 acres of open countryside, there is also a large </p><p>nature reserve managed by the Leicestershire and Rutland Wildlife Trust </p><p>and home to the Rutland Osprey Project. </p><p>Life in Pickwell affords home-owners all the benefits of relaxed country </p><p>living, with easy access to local towns and cities including Oakham, Melton </p><p>Mowbray, Stamford, Leicester and Nottingham. And closer to home there </p><p>are plenty of local walking routes and open countryside to explore.</p>
