Island | Private Lake Retreat + Hot Tub Escape

Summary:
Tucked away on a quiet stretch of Little Horseshoe Lake, Island is a sleek, glass-fronted stay with its own hot tub, kayaks and multiple sun-drenched decks. Perfect for couples or solo escapes, this lodge gives you space to fully switch off - with trails to wander, wild water to swim in, and not a neighbour in sight. Just you, the water, and that exhale you didn’t know you needed.

Dates gone? Check The Boathouse, Willow or Waterlily - same design, same lake, same magic.

The Space:
🌿 Inside the space:
• Architect-designed, glass-fronted lodge
• Lake views from every angle
• Mezzanine bedroom overlooking the water
• Private hot tub just steps from your lodge
• Cosy log burner for fireside evenings
• Underfloor heating throughout
• Smart TV (Netflix etc) + Bluetooth speaker
• Lightning-fast Starlink WiFi
• Fully equipped kitchen with Nespresso machine

Guest Access:
🚣‍♀️ Outside, at your own pace:
• Private pontoon and large lakefront deck
• Two communal kayaks to take out
• Mixed fishing (experienced anglers only)
• Wild swimming in crystal-clear water
• 55 acres of private estate with sculpture-dotted walking trails
• Sunsets that deserve your full attention

The Neighborhood:
Little Horseshoe Lake is a private gated retreat with just five homes on two tranquil lakes. You’re in South Cerney, surrounded by peaceful nature but only a short drive from the independent charm of Cirencester and the 180+ lakes that make up the Cotswold Lakes.

🚶 Within 10 minutes’ walk:
• 10+ pubs, cafés and restaurants
• Award-winning dining and relaxed local gems
• Country walks, lakeside strolls, and wild beauty

Getting Around:
A car is ideal to make the most of the area, though the 51 bus route (Cheltenham to Swindon) runs nearby, and Kemble Station is just 7 miles away with fast trains to London. Taxis should be pre-booked
