In an elegant pocket of the Cotswolds lies this lakeside charming villa – a real find for those who like their homes with a generous helping of natural daylight. The floor-to-ceiling windows cover three levels, so even when you're not out on one of the many terraces dining alfresco or enjoying a glass of wine with the lake as your backdrop, you'll feel like you're under the sun. Families will love it here, with bunk beds and a playroom keeping younger guests busy. The home's location in the Lower Mill Estate means you'll have access to two shared heated swimming pools, playgrounds, soft play, tennis courts, a 3G multi-use games area, and a spa (we recommend booking treatments in advance). Further afield, nearby Cirencester is dotted with historic pubs and charming country boutiques and is just twenty minutes by car. Or for something a little nearer, you'll find the picturesque swimming lagoons and sandy beaches of Cotswolds Country Park are just a five-minute drive away.

With access to a shared on-site spa, swimming pools, and restaurant, this lakeside home is a destination in itself. The facilities are just a minute’s walk away and when you’re not enjoying a sauna or workout in the gym, you can savour the peace and quiet from your private deck, overlooking a small lake. We love the panoramic windows here which make the most of the water views, and with table football and a communal outdoor play area, kids are well catered for too. While you’d be forgiven for not wanting to leave the estate, if you do decide to venture out you'll discover lots of traditional Cotswold villages just a short drive away.

A House by the Lake

Hot Tub

Free Parking

Set amid private acres on a nature reserve, you'll find plenty of outdoor activities across land and water to keep you entertained. Spoiled with lake views from three south-facing balconies, this home is ideal for hot tub hangouts and alfresco barbecues – or why not arrange a private dining experience? Unwind in the spa, dip in an eco-pool, or play tennis without setting foot off the estate. That said, the Cotswolds offers countryside pastimes, chocolate-box villages, and Roman history in nearby Cirencester. 

Master of the Lake

Toiletries

Nestled within an action-packed holiday park surrounded by the picturesque countryside of The Cotswolds, this inviting three-storey home offers an exciting family getaway. Take a dip in the communal heated pool, unwind at the spa or enjoy a game of tennis at the courts. For those seeking adventure, watersports and gym facilities are also available – why not try paddleboarding? Head to the on-site beach for a spot of sun-soaking, then head home to tuck into a home-cooked dinner on the deck overlooking the lake. Wrap up your day with a cosy fireside chat in the living room with a glass of wine in hand.

Lake Lodge

Garden

Maximising the views of Swillbrook Lake Nature Reserve with floor-to-ceiling windows, this family home is all about the surrounding landscape. As evidence, huge doors open unto a balcony and a spiral staircase leads up to the deck, where the outdoor seating area becomes a great vantage point. Even the freestanding tub in the main bedroom is positioned right next to the window for a relaxing soak with a beautiful backdrop. And if relaxing is what you're in the market for, the on-site spa might be able to assist. You'll also find a shared swimming pool here, where the little ones can burn off excess energy. 

Lakeview Lullaby

Nestled in a private estate, this lakeside hideaway makes the perfect setting for a refreshing rural escape. Outside you can admire the views from the terrace or the balcony. Inside, there is a wood-burning fire and plenty of space to stretch out and socialise. You can also enjoy access to the on-site facilities – including a swimming pool, sauna and gym. Two complimentary spa passes are included in your stay and there are a range of activities to keep the whole family entertained. From here, you can follow hiking trails or adventure further afield to nearby Cirencester – just a short drive away. 

Flowing Serenity 

This lakeside home is surrounded by acres of nature reserve and miles of hiking trails. We think it's ideal for families – for an additional fee, furry friends are welcome and your host can provide a travel cot and high chair. The glass wall at the back of the house offers great lake views and natural light, but it does mean that some privacy is lost if you're spending time outside in the hot tub, or if you have the light on in the evening. You'll enjoy access to a range of onsite facilities though, from a spa and pool to a restaurant and shop, and you can explore the area by bike, on foot or even by canoe.

Dew Drops

Perfect for a family break, this apartment set within a Cotswolds holiday park offers relaxation and fun in equal measure. Those looking to unwind will be tempted by the shared amenities, including an award-winning on-site spa and communal swimming pools, while active types will no doubt want to try their hand at the many watersports on offer (with equipment available to rent). Bike hire, shared tennis courts and a communal gym are on hand too, while the on-site restaurant offers the perfect excuse to take a break from cooking. That said, the home’s private balcony offers a spot for alfresco dining – best enjoyed facing the beautiful surroundings, a glass of wine in hand. 

Marigold Bloom

Safety Gates

If you’re in search of a restorative lakeside retreat, this contemporary home makes a great option. From here, you can admire the views while relaxing on the terrace. Inside, there is a wood-burning fire and you’ll find plenty of space to stretch out across the three floors. By day, there are a range of activities on offer including kayaking, fishing and paddle boarding, while the resident spa, gym and swimming pool make it easy to switch off and unwind. You can also enjoy easy access to beautiful hiking trails and it’s just a short drive to Cirencester, Stroud and Burford.


Bird Song

Desk / Workplace

Safe

Located in the charming market town of Cirencester, this Grade II listed cottage is the perfect base for a couple or close-knit group of friends looking to spend some time in the capital of the Cotswolds. Inside, it’s modern yet characterful – we loved the original timber beams, log-burning stove and charming spiral staircase that leads to the cosy second bedroom. Should you have some work to attend to, there’s an office space for you to set up your laptop. 

Wake up with a coffee in the quiet living space before putting together a tasty breakfast in the farmhouse-style kitchen. If the weather is on your side, spill out into the garden and finish cups of tea at the bistro set in the warm sunshine. 

Pull on your comfiest shoes and get to know your surroundings. You’re a seven-minute walk from the indie shops that cluster around Market Place and five minutes from the Barton Lane entrance of Cirencester Park – an excellent place to stop for a picnic. Take a dip in the spring-fed, open-air pool in the heights of the summer, follow bridleways that snake through the unspoilt countryside or jump in the car and spend an afternoon in pretty Bibury, a fifteen-minute drive away.

Honey Pot Cottage

Located in Clearwater, this Cotswolds escape invites guests to experience lakeside living – with leisure and relaxation at its heart. Overlooking Somerford Lagoon, the contemporary house sits surrounded by nature in a luxury holiday park. Featuring modern designs dedicated to comfort – it's a functional spot, perfect for families. With complete access to the award-winning on-site spa, pools, steam room, fitness centre, restaurant and activity centre – you'll never run short of things to do. The more adventurous can hire a kayak and paddleboard or even practice their serve at the tennis courts. Meanwhile, the miles of walking trails amid lakeside trails, rivers and hundreds of acres of green space let you reconnect with nature from day dot. 





Little Bunkers

Surrounded by lakeside trails, rivers and acres of green space, this apartment set within a Cotswolds holiday park offers plenty of activity and relaxation, no matter which you’re after. Shared on-site facilities like an award-winning spa, several swimming pools and a restaurant allow you to dial into carefree holiday mode, while tennis courts, bike rental and a plethora of water-based activities (including paddleboarding and kayaking) ensure a dull moment is never had. The apartment itself is ideal for families given the bunk bed in the third bedroom. And a private deck means outdoor leisure is close at hand at all times. 


Cotswold Quilt

Rooftop Terrace

Tucked amid the reeds of a private estate, this RIBA award-winning home is a lakeside sanctuary and the perfect setting for an eco-friendly retreat. There’s a rooftop terrace, an outdoor lounge with a barbecue and plenty of space for families to savour quality time together. You’ll also have access to a 450-acre nature reserve along with a wide range of estate facilities, including an award-winning spa, outdoor swimming pool, tennis court and on-site restaurant. This isn’t the best option if you’re seeking seclusion and privacy, but it’s ideal for family fun and relaxation. 

Calm by the Lake

Private Pool

Outdoor Fireplace / Firepit

Dating back to the 1880s, this former barn now provides a beautiful countryside cottage experience for families exploring The Cotswolds. Though it's since undergone renovations, it takes pride in the stone floors, exposed walls and beams, adding character and charm to the space, even if the sloped ceilings mean taller guests have to watch their heads. At least there's no ducking outside where an expansive garden gives you more than enough space. You'll also find the seasonal swimming pool, fire pit, alfresco dining table and, if requested, a hot tub out here. As for location, you're within easy driving distance of Cotswolds treasures such as Tetbury, Malmesbury and Cirencester. 

Oak & Honey

Overlooking Minety Lake, this waterfront home gives guests a unique experience that combines luxury living with exploring the local nature. The open-plan living set-up flowing out onto the decking and garden area – ensures the picturesque views are always close by. Plus, with a private jetty, you can benefit from direct access to the water with a paddleboard or kayak, for example. When you're not participating in watersports lapping up the on-site swimming pools and tennis courts – the Sky and Sky Sports subscriptions provided by the hosts will likely come in handy here too. While cooking in the state-of-the-art open kitchen is tempting, you'll also find an on-site restaurant – for fuss-free meal times. 

The Morning Muse

Leave behind fast-paced days and enjoy a relaxing retreat in this cosy apartment. Located within a private estate, guests can enjoy access to a communal pool, spa and on-site restaurant (just a five-minute walk away). Bikes and canoes are also available to rent, plus it's child and pet friendly. Back at home, you can enjoy views across the lake while relaxing on the private deck. It’s worth noting you will have neighbours close by, but the rooms provide a calm space to unwind after a day of exploring the Cotswolds countryside. 


The Cotswold Lodge

This eco-friendly property is located within Lower Mill Estate in The Cotswolds. The holiday park is surrounded by acres of nature reserve and offers plenty of outdoor activities such as biking and paddle boarding, plus shared facilities like a swimming pool and spa. The home itself features open plan living/dining, a snug with a big TV and a full kitchen. Stepping through glass sliding doors, you’re on the terrace by the waterside with lounge furniture and a barbecue. The highlight is the rooftop terrace which is a real sun trap during the day and has views over the lakeside estate.

There are also beautiful hiking trails and it’s just a short drive to Cirencester and the Cotswold Wildlife Park.

Serenity Lake

The on-site spa has multiple communal pools, and you'll have your own hot tub and private balcony. The glass front of the home offers lovely views of Swillbrook lake and the stars at night from indoors, and plenty of natural light, though it does mean the home won't feel very private – we recommend bringing an eye mask for sleeping, as the main bedroom has no blinds.

Lodge Cottage

Sitting on the water’s edge of a private estate, this contemporary home makes the perfect setting for a lakeside retreat. Spread across three floors, the rooms have been thoughtfully curated for large groups in search of ease, comfort and plenty of space to socialise.

A Wild Flower

Ping Pong Table

Nestled in the heart of the Cotswold Water Park, this clapperboard cottage has views of Isis Lake and a smorgasbord of fun for the whole family. Communal tennis courts, a games room (including retro arcade games and a ping-pong table), children's play area, volleyball net and a croquet lawn are just a few of the land-based activities, while on the water, there's fishing, paddleboarding, kayaking and jetskiing to excite you. The home itself is bright, cosy and perfectly embodies that charming coastal feeling. In the mornings, sip your coffee on the sunny deck, watching as the trout jump in the lake and listening to the sound of cascading water fountain. Home chefs will love cooking up a storm in the fully-equipped kitchen, preparing delicious family dinner to share around the rustic dining table. End the evening snuggled up on the sofa with the electric fire burning, watching a family-favourite film on the smart TV. When you're in the mood for a change of scenery, Cirencester is a ten-minute drive away and has a wealth of shops and restaurants. Or just hop in the car and go for a drive, exploring the pretty villages in the Cotswolds.

The Country Gentleman

Picture this: a beautiful Costwolds cottage with roses round the door and idyllic views over the neighbouring countryside. Set over three floors, this historic home retains heaps of character, with exposed stone walls and ancient wood beams, alongside contemporary alterations like a sparkling new kitchen and a glass panel staircase. Cosy and smartly furnished, the living room's feature fireplace has a log burner for warming up on winter evenings and leads through to a stylish dining space with log storage built into the wall. Equipped with everything you could need to cook at home, the kitchen is lit by a huge ceiling lantern and a big window. Bedrooms are classic country style and we particularly love the freestanding bathtub in the main bathroom and the pretty bedroom on the top floor. The house shares a rear courtyard with some neighbouring properties but a large, private garden lies across the lane to the front.

Oak by the Lake

A homely lakeside retreat, this two-storey home is an ideal base for a family who wants to be close to endless outdoor activities. What stood out to us was the deck – from breakfast to supper, you'll want to have all your meals alfresco here (weather permitting), overlooking the lake. In colder months, the fireplace and indoor dining table are nice touches, and the bedrooms are small but cosy. You can't grow bored here, either – the home provides access to the spa facilities in the nearby holiday park, along with its pools.

Lakeland Lullaby

Nestled among a nature reserve in the Cotswolds, this home provides a great family getaway. The home boasts a lovely wooden terrace and private balcony, but the real highlight is its private cinema room complete with vintage chairs. As the house is located on a large estate, privacy may be lacking a bit though there are numerous activities here to keep you busy. Guests can make use of the on-site swimming pools, spa facilities, as well as the restaurant. To explore the surroundings a bit better you can also hire bikes or water-sports equipment for the day. 

The Wooden Frame

Private Parking

 This sky-deck house is located on the water's edge, offering stunning views of Minety Lake and the wildlife that calls it home. The house features a log fire for those colder months and a modern open-plan dining area that opens up to a lovely wooden patio with barbecue facilities. The standout feature here however is its roof terrace complete with hot tub, overlooking the lake and surroundings. As the home is on an estate, it’s worth noting it may slightly impact your privacy, though guests will have access to the estate’s facilities, such as the swimming pools and award-winning spa.

The Woodpecker's Nest

Come to an activity-driven nature reserve, where kayaking and bike rides await on private grounds. A minute's walk from Somerford Lagoon, this home sits amid a row of cottages sharing an orchard. While the living area is great for fireside relaxation, be careful not to bump your head on the sloped ceilings upstairs. A shared pool and tennis courts are a stone's throw away, and more facilities are to be discovered. Off-site, the Cotswolds promise so much in the way of romantic villages, rich history, and rural pleasures.

Situated on a historic private estate in the heart of Gloucestershire, this dreamy cottage is the perfect setting for your next family getaway to the Cotswolds. 

You’d be hard-pressed to find a cosier base than this – boasting a snug living room complete with soft throws and a toasty fireplace, this is the kind of place we all dream of coming home to after a chilly day in the English countryside. Warm up with a cup of tea on the sofa or head upstairs to the family bathroom for a relaxing bubble bath before drifting off to sleep in one of the cottage's quiet bedrooms.

The next morning, start your day with a breakfast of locally produced organic goodies from the local farm shop or – if the weather’s on your side – head out to the garden and soak up some sun. This is the perfect place for little ones and four-legged friends to roam but there’s plenty to explore in the local area if you fancy a change of scenery. Breathe in the sweet scent of lime blossom as you travel down the 800-metre private road leading out of the estate – with Westonbirt Arboretum, Berkeley Castle, and The Cotswold Water Park all within striking distance, you've got plenty of destinations to choose from so why not ditch the GPS and see where the day takes you?

The bunk beds, while too small for adults, are ideal for children, and you can rent extra childcare equipment during your stay. You might want a car for exploring the nearby villages and towns in the Cotswolds, but there's plenty on the estate to keep you entertained, from tennis courts to watersports out on the lakes.

Meadowside Haven

Set within a holiday park in the Cotswolds, this home is perfect for families looking for ample entertainment and maximum relaxation.

The living space, complete with a wood-burning stove, opens onto a private, west-facing balcony where you’ll find a gas barbecue.
