Surrounded by tranquil lakes, waterways and open countryside, this stylish, contemporary home is an ideal base for a group getaway in the Cotswolds. There are numerous ways to enjoy the outdoors, from cycling around the estate and playing tennis to discovering the activities available at the Activity Hub. Younger guests can get involved with nature-inspired crafts, learn about the wildlife that lives here through Nature Explorers sessions or let off steam in the soft play area. Guests can make use of the heated indoor and outdoor pools or book a spa treatment. You won’t need to travel far when hunger strikes, with an on-site restaurant, pizza shack and tipi bar offering ample choice, while the market is handy for holiday essentials. For a change of scene, visit Cirencester (6 miles) or wander into Somerford Keynes, just 1 mile away, where you’ll find a pub, Cotswold Country Park and Cotswold Sculpture Park.
Thoughtfully furnished throughout, this lakeside property combines quality fixtures and fittings with an inviting feel. Oak flooring runs through the main living areas, while the bedrooms are carpeted for added comfort. Two waterside bedrooms occupy the ground floor, comprising a king-size room with an en-suite shower room and a twin bedroom, also with en-suite facilities. Both have direct access to the lower deck, making it easy to start the day beside the water. A family bathroom accompanies a further twin bedroom. On the first floor, the well-equipped kitchen has a single oven with a gas hob, a tall fridge/freezer, a microwave, and a washer/dryer, with everything needed to cater for up to eight guests. Next to the kitchen, a dining table seats the whole group for convivial meals. The comfortable lounge has seating for eight, a wood-burner and TV, while sliding doors open onto a westerly-facing balcony with a compact bistro table and chairs. A separate snug with a wall-mounted TV gives guests another spot for films, reading or quiet time. On the second floor, the open-plan mezzanine bedroom has a king-size bed and an en-suite shower room, with elevated vistas over the lounge and Swillbrook Lake. Please note that there are no curtains or blinds on the side overlooking the lounge and lake, so the bedroom remains open to the scenery.
Outside, the ground floor decking displays landscapes across the lake and is furnished with a garden table and chairs for eight, along with a charcoal BBQ for alfresco meals. One private parking space is available at the property, with extra parking in the main car park if required.
