The Gaol Events

The Gaol offers intense urban wargaming (Airsoft) in the unique environment of a real former Prison. From up close and personal moving cell to cell, sneaking around in the darkened wings or in the open surrounded by razor wire topped security fencing, The Gaol has it all. Check out videos on Youtube (search "The Gaol Oakham") to see footage from actual games at The Gaol - experience the adrenaline of close quarters combat in the incredible setting of a real prison. A fully stocked airsoft supplies shop and on site hot food catering make the experience even better. Available 7 days a week for private hire for groups, corporate events, stag/hen, birthdays etc. Also available for filming, TV, horror/zombie experiences & ghost hunts. Typically open every other Sunday and every Wednesday evening but look out for private game days and special events. Game & equipment hire prices vary - please check our website for the very latest information.

I’ve lost count how many times I’ve been here. Came here on the first day it opened and have been coming back since. Had some of the best day of airsoft here and the sites always changing there’s always something new been done or a new type of game play which keeps it interesting. Justin and Charlotte do a fantastic job of running the site. Not forgetting the marshals they do a great job as well. Oh and the food is always good the burgers are the bomb. Thank you for some of the greatest days of airsoft I’ve ever had. I’ll always recommend you guys :)

Whissendine Windmill

Reviewed By Judearava - Hazeva, Israel

we went to visit, just because we had an hour to kill. little did i know that we would find a true working mill! Nigel Moon - a true living image of windy miller - was more than happy to tell us the history of this great working mill and let us climb up into the upper levels of the tower. Would loved to have been able to buy some flour but as we live overseas it wasn’t really possible. But talking to Mr Moon has made me more determined to buy quality bread or even try to make it myself! great place to take children

One Way Out Escape Rooms

One Way Out is a fantastic escape room experience located in Oakham, Rutland. Use strategy, team work and brain power to crack codes, solve puzzles and complete the game in 70 minutes. During the event your game master will guide you if you need a hint. Work together, think together and most importantly, laugh together. Our games are also the best value anywhere, with prices between £12.50 and £20 per head depending on group size and for that you get up to 70-80 minutes of play (depending on which game you choose)

We had a fantastic experience! We decided to try the murder mystery and unfortunately got caught by the police! The stage and clues were well set and provided a good challenge, well worth a visit for all you murder mystery lovers!

Oakham Castle

The splendid Great Hall of Oakham Castle is one of the finest Norman Halls in England. The Hall is best known for its collection of enormous commemorative Horseshoes donated by members of the Royal Family and Peers of the Realm. It is also decorated with a range of 12th century sculptures. The grounds of the Castle are a peaceful oasis in the centre of Oakham.

For a free museum, it is good. Couldn’t ask for much more, welcomed warmly by the staff. Spent a bit over an hour there looking at some interesting things.

We vidit Mike Goldmark's gallery periodically znd have made several modest purchases. The range of artists stocked is tremendous and the gallery itself is beautiful. Staff are very knowledgeable about the Art there. Prices vary from say £350 to £30k. The latter end refers to nationally known artists. Well worth a visit for both browsing ,( originals , prints and pottery) and buying.

The Railway Inn

I am a beautiful old village pub filled with wonderful people. Although I am ancient I always seem to out last the locals and watch the night break and the sun rise! I am a listed building and very important to Ketton's history. I am the only wet house left in Rutland (pub that does not sell food). But do not despair as we do have mouth watering bar snacks - especially on Sundays as we do lovely roasted parsnips and potatoes. We truly cherish our locals at The Railway and look after them well! Our doors are always open to wonderful new faces and the bar men and ladies will make sure you feel greatly welcomed. We hope to see you soon Opening Times Monday - Friday 5pm till our last customer leaves Saturday and Sunday 12pm till we all retire
