This waterside retreat sits within the idyllic Cotswold Water Park, with lakeside walks and an abundance of water-based activities from your front door. The property sleeps six guests and one hound, making it perfect for both families and groups of friends. The lodge is just 5.5 miles from Cirencester, and you can also take a day trip to the picture-postcard village of Bourton-on-the-Water (18.5 miles).

The New England-style lodge is bright and airy, with colourful soft furnishings sitting against elegant walls and wooden floors. The open-plan lounge/diner is flooded with natural light, thanks to floor-to-ceiling glass doors which can be opened on a summer's day to allow Fido to potter in and out to the terrace. Comfortable sofas are set around a Smart TV, and there's also a dining table to seat everyone. From here, an open doorway leads to the kitchen. The three elegant bedrooms are upstairs, one of which has an en-suite shower room. Completing the accommodation is a stylish family bathroom. Outside, the decked terrace enjoys tranquil views across the lake; spend time here, relaxing in the hot tub. This area is fully enclosed for your canine friend. Guests also have access to a myriad of on-site facilities, including water sports, fishing, tennis, and a games room.

There are six circular walks around the water park, varying in length from 1 mile to 11 miles. This wetlands landscape is a tranquil haven with an abundance of rare wildlife, therefore it's important that your waggy-tailed friend is always on a lead. Cirencester is just 5.5 miles away; take a stroll with the dog around its narrow streets, admiring the historic buildings and honey-coloured, stone cottages, before grabbing a bite to eat in one of the many paw-friendly eateries.

Lovely place but in the summer the uncut reeds obscure the view of the lake when you're sitting out on the terrace or in the lounge. Just bear this in mind. You can see it if you stand up though! Beautiful area generally and well equipped large clean cottage.

A great lakeside cottage. Hot tub was a real treat and the whole outside area is really spacious. Inside is very cosy and bright with relaxing bedrooms and nice lounge and dining area.

Thank you for a lovely stay. The house was perfect for our family, with a beautiful view across Windrush Lake in a quiet part of the complex. The patio is great with a huge hot tub, we loved it! We hope to return in future.
