About this property

Serendipity | Cotswold Lakehouse | Hot Tub & Kayak

  • 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆:

    Serendipity Lodge is one of those homes that feels instantly welcoming. With four bedrooms, four bathrooms and bright, open-plan living, it’s made for groups who want comfort and simplicity. Afternoons roll by easily, from barbecues on the decking to a soak in the hot tub. Then evenings settle into long catch-ups, films or a quiet drink on the balcony.

    𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲:

    Serendipity sleeps eight across four bedrooms, with four bathrooms for an easy, well-set-up stay. The master bedroom has its own lake-view balcony, and the entire downstairs is open-plan, bright and flexible for group living. The lounge is made for long catch-ups, with Smart TV, Sky, and fast Wi-Fi. A utility room provides a washing machine and tumble dryer.

    𝗚𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀:

    You’ll have full use of the lodge, the enclosed lakefront decking, the private hot tub, the outdoor dining area and the BBQ. The decking has direct access to the lake, and private parking is right outside the property.

    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.

    Cirencester is about 10-15 minutes by car and offers boutique shopping, restaurants, markets, and a rich sense of history. Kemble Station is also close, with direct trains into London, making this spot practical for quick weekend visits as well as longer stays.

    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 pet friendly. Two well-behaved dogs are welcome (£35 per dog). A travel cot and high chair are provided. Paddleboard hire is available on request, 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.

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! Thank you!

Family Getaway - Fabulous House

We stayed for a family get together, a great view up the lake, facilities were fantastic. 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.

The house is fabulous. It’s immaculately presented. The facilities are all excellent. The attention to detail is great - expensive shower products and hand washes in all bathrooms, the kitchen is really well equipped with high quality utensils and equipment (not like some places who’ve stocked up on the cheap) There were fresh flowers in all rooms. The view over the lake and from the hot tub are fabulous. We even saw a Kingfisher land on the balustrade as we had coffee one morning. The communication from the hosts was brilliant with access to them via WhatsApp. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful house!

We stayed for 2 nights and it was perfect - except the weather! 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
