Rutland, the smallest county in England, lies nestled in the heart of the East Midlands, bordered by Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, and Northamptonshire. This predominantly rural county is dominated by two charming towns, Oakham and Uppingham, offering an immersive experience of authentic British countryside life. The thrill-seekers are lured towards the adventurous offerings at the Rutland Water reservoir, while history and architecture enthusiasts find delight in the well-preserved Norman beauty, Oakham Castle.

The county's economy draws strength from the thriving agriculture sector, with pillars rooted deep in the historic importance of wool. Further honing Rutland's identity are significant employers like Lands' End, Ketton Cement Works, and two Ministry of Defence bases, enriching its socio-economic canvas. The county even clinched the title of "happiest county" in mainland UK, underlining the contentment of its residents despite its geographical modesty.
