About Rutland

Enjoy shopping amongst honey-coloured buildings in a distinctly charming English town

A wealth of history and a host of excellent shops can be found in the smaller market town of Uppingham.
The town features its own weekly market and also hosts a monthly Farmers’ Market on the second Friday of each month. If reducing food miles and being assured of the source of meat and other products is of concern, this is the place to come.

For browsing round antiques shops, Uppingham hits the mark perfectly.  Items including glass, china, cutlery, silver, jewellery, maps, mirrors and coins and much more are all on sale; there are a number of such specialist retailers in the town, enough to keep visitors browsing for hours.

Art is very important to Uppingham.  A number of art galleries show pieces worth large sums of money.  Visitors come from far and wide to admire and appreciate the pieces on offer.
