LakeWhitwell Lodge put-in
Rutland, EnglandThis slipway lies on the north shore of Rutland Water near Whitwell, within the stretch of shoreline occupied by Anglian Water's Rutland Watersports centre at Whitwell Creek. The centre is the reservoir's only permitted launch point for kayaks, canoes and paddleboards, and requires registration and a launch fee on each visit.
LakeWhitwell Lodge put-in
Rutland, EnglandThis slipway sits on the north shore of Rutland Water near Whitwell, close to Anglian Water's Rutland Watersports centre at Whitwell Creek and within 100 metres of a near-identical slipway (way/209325683). Anglian Water restricts paddle-craft launching on the reservoir to the Whitwell Creek centre.
LakeNook Farm put-in (Empingham)
Rutland, EnglandThis concrete slipway near Empingham, on the south side of Rutland Water, is tagged as private access in OpenStreetMap. Anglian Water, which manages the reservoir, states that paddle-craft launching is permitted only through its Rutland Watersports centre at Whitwell Creek, several kilometres to the north-west, so this access point appears to serve a private landowner rather than public paddlers.
LakeHome Farm put-in (Whitwell)
Rutland, EnglandThis concrete slipway lies on the north shore of Rutland Water near Whitwell, in the same stretch of shoreline as Anglian Water's Rutland Watersports centre at Whitwell Creek. Whitwell Creek is the reservoir's only permitted launch point for kayaks, canoes and paddleboards, and users must register and pay a launch fee on each visit.
LakeEdith Weston put-in
Rutland, EnglandThis slipway sits on the south shore of Rutland Water near Edith Weston, close to Rutland Sailing Club's grounds on Gibbet Lane. Rutland Water is a reservoir near Oakham managed by Anglian Water, which restricts paddle-craft launching on the main body of the reservoir to its Rutland Watersports centre at Whitwell Creek on the north shore.
