PRESTON
Preston is a delightful Rutland village with many imposing stone properties, a number of which are Grade II Listed, all set into a lovely conservation area. There are a number of facilities including a village hall, public house and church, but for other items these can easily be obtained in the nearby towns of Oakham and Uppingham which include shops, doctors, dentists, library, chemist etc.
In addition, schools are readily available in the area, both Local Authority and private with a good range catering for children of most ages.
Sporting facilities too are many and varied with clubs for cricket, football, rugby, hockey, tennis, bowls, golf etc. Other sports also available involve the horse, sailing and fly fishing at both Rutland Water and Eyebrook.
For commuters Preston is ideal, being within easy distance of the A47 allowing good commuting to both Peterborough and Leicester and an easy southwards journey to Corby and Kettering, where at the latter there is a good train service to London St Pancras.
