You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Summer Lake

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆:

At Summer Lake, you have space for calm and comfort at home, then activities and adventure the moment the water calls. Paddleboarding, swimming, fishing, or jumping into the rowing boat to get straight out onto the lake, before drifting back to shore to recharge in the hot tub. With plenty of space to spread out and easy places to come together for meals and stories.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲:

Summer Lake sleeps up to eight guests across four bedrooms. The principal bedroom features a king-size bed and en-suite, while the 2nd, 3rd and 4th bedrooms can be set as twins or super-kings. There are three bathrooms in total, plus a downstairs toilet.

Inside, the open-plan living, kitchen and dining area is designed for time together, with a dining table for eight and everything you need for relaxed group stays. You’ll find a fully equipped kitchen with appliances and cookware, a Smart TV, fast and reliable WiFi, air conditioning in lake-facing bedrooms, and a utility space with a washing machine and tumble dryer. Wildsmith Skin toiletries are included with every stay, along with bed linen, towels and robes for every guest.

Outside, you’ll have an enclosed, glass-fronted lakeside decking with a private hot tub, outdoor table for al fresco drinking and dining, a charcoal BBQ, direct lake access and a rowing boat included for easy time on the water.

𝗚𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀:

You’ll have full private use of the house and the lakeside decking throughout your stay. Parking is available on site, with two allocated spaces and additional room for visitors.

Check in from 3PM and check out by 10AM. You can arrive at your own pace with self check-in via key box, just give us a call if you have any issues.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗱:

Set within the beautiful Cotswold Lakes, you’re surrounded by over 180 lakes, woodland trails and quiet village lanes. The landscape feels open, green and peaceful in every direction. It's the perfect space to be active and explore, ideal for cycling, paddle-boarding, or just walking and enjoying the abundant wildlife and fresh air.

South Cerney is only a few minutes away and is one of the area’s most established villages. Think traditional stone cottages, small, friendly shops, lovely pubs and delightful cafés. Tree-lined lanes and village greens all lead directly towards scenic lakeside routes, so nature’s nearby even when you’re shopping.

𝗚𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱:

A car is ideal for exploring the surrounding villages and lakes. That said, Kemble Station (direct trains from London) is just 7 miles away, and the 51 bus runs from the end of the lane to Cirencester and Swindon. Once you arrive, walking and cycling are great ways to enjoy the peaceful landscape.

𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲:

The house is dog-friendly. Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome (£35 per dog). A travel cot and highchair are available, and decoration services can be arranged for special occasions.

Quiet hours run from 10.30PM to 8AM, and we ask guests to respect the peaceful setting: No parties, and no smoking indoors.

𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗚𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀:

Everybody finds peace in a different way, and that’s how it should be. From the moment you book, you decide the pace, and we’ll be there to help you plan, and create moments that really matter. It’s that little extra layer of support we offer to make sure everything runs smoothly. Thoughtful service, that never gets in the way of a good moment.

Whether that means a slow morning with a fresh pot of tea and a long soak, or a day out exploring neighbourhoods and nature - we’ll guide you, so it all unfolds just the way you’ve pictured it.
