The open plan room downstairs worked well allowing space in all areas according to what the party wanted to do. The hot tub under the canopy area was great & provided shelter from the elements (not the warmest of weekends). As usual from Cotswold Waterpark Retreats - a fabulous home, presentation & cleanliness fabulous ~ would definitely recommend & we can’t wait to have another stay.

But the house had everything we needed. We even managed to get out on the water with the Kayak included with the house. The bbq and hot tub were a lovely treat and the house had adequate outdoor seating. The house was spotless and included lovely towels, robes and toiletries. We definitely wouldn’t hesitate to go book again x This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 17 Apr 2024 #### Beautiful stay! It was a family trip to celebrate a 40th birthday, and from the moment we walked through the door we were wowed! The views are beautiful, and the house itself was furnished to a high standard. The location is good for walks and locals pubs/restaurants. I managed to charge my EV car nearby which was handy. The bedrooms were quiet, and the bathrooms were lovely! Overall no reason no to revisit in the future!
