A spacious, light-soaked hideaway with an undeniably peaceful ambience, Lakeside Cottage is your invitation to revel in the slow pace of rural living. Whether you choose to rest your feet next to the sitting room's roaring wood burner, pull out a seat in the classic dining room, or rustle up farm shop finds in the kitchen, Lakeside's living spaces are as well equipped as they are peaceful. Meanwhile, there's two expansive bedrooms to retreat to after a day exploring the high notes of the Cotswolds.
As the glowing sun rises over the lakes, pour a hot coffee and take croissants down to the terrace, lovingly named the Crow's Nest by the owners, to revel in spectacular views of the undulating valley that ancient trees and wildflowers call home. With nothing but the sound of birds weaving around the cottage, this place embodies a real sense of tranquillity.
Over your stay, you'll likely find yourself returning to the Crow's Nest time and time again - especially in the evening, when the sun begins to set below the skyline.
Ground floor
Kitchen/Dining Area:
The hub of the house, Lakeside's spacious kitchen and dining area is well-equipped with all the essentials as well as a dining table perfect for enjoying everything from brunch through to dinner. As the sun rises across the valley, pour yourself a mug of tea and peer out the window at majestic views.

After a day exploring, the sitting room makes for a cosy space to unwind thanks to a crackling wood burner and plenty of comfortable seating. We love the elegant wall paintings and dark wood antiques in this room.

Outside
Framed by billowing hills lined with lush woodland, outside is where Lakeside Cottage really comes into its own. Whether you spend peaceful days sat on the Crow's Nest with a glass of wine admiring the stillness of the lakes, or read a book as the sun sets across the horizon, you'll benefit from the calming ambience of this place. For when you get peckish, you'll find a BBQ in the barn, ideal for making dinner with local meats and a fresh salad.
