A weekend visit - Oakham

With Mrs B in plaster after a recent knee op and foreign travel out of the question for a while, the chance to explore some places a little closer to home.
Here Oakham, the county town of Rutland, smallest county in England and just a 25 minute drive from Bonio Towers!
A place we've often visited but now a chance to stop for the weekend, happily coinciding with the Rutland beer festival, pure coincidence of course!
So a lovely hotel to mention, a couple of great pubs and a few local attractions, here is what we did.
