"The warmest welcome at the oldest Inn in the county."

The Blue Ball has a long history in Rutland, being the county's oldest inn and has always sustained an excellent reputation for food.

The idylic village of Braunston is situated within easy reach of Oakham and is just off the A6003.

The historic building has been refurbished to very high standards but retains all it's original features and warmth.

The cosy bar has a roaring fire, is furnished with leather seats, soft lighting and makes it the ideal place to be on a cold winter's evening.

It is also a perfect place to relax and have a break when visiting Rutland Water for walking, cycling, sailing or climbing! Children are very welcome.

You can be assured of a friendly welcome from Dominic and his team - and are confident that your first visit will not be your last!
