A spacious home in a beautiful setting
The views out of the windows both upstairs and downstairs are stunning. We loved sitting in the hot tub watching the birds on the water with a glass of wine in hand. The place was plenty big enough with decent size rooms, enough seating for everyone and the kitchen was well equipped. We relaxed with beauty treatments and had a fun trip to to try archery at the Cotswold range. We even managed a gentle paddle across the lake using the canoe from the house.

Henry and Thomas
Enjoyed a weekend family get together at this fantastic property. The setting on the lake was peaceful and private with amazing sunsets. The hot tub, bbq and kayak were additional pluses. The property location was perfect, allowing us all to do varied activities such as bird watching, paddleboarding, horse riding and fishing - something for everyone within short distance. Also, two picture perfect cotswolds villages within walking distance and we manged to fit in an evening meal at Asha at The Crown, Cerney Wick, which we highly recommend. Loved our time here and didn't want to leave.
