About this property

Windrush Lake 87, The Retreat (P)

The New England style lakeside holiday cottages on Isis and Windrush are positioned around three natural, reed edged lakes, located within the Cotswold Water Park. The resort is a family friendly, pet friendly, holiday park which boasts exceptionally well managed grounds and a wide selection of fun activities for the whole family.

These luxury, lakeside holiday cottages come in three or four bedrooms, with most properties offering open plan living which opens out onto your own private, lakeside sun deck. Each master bedroom boasts a double height picture window with excellent views of one of the three lakes or gardens.

Isis & Windrush lakes offer a great safe family friendly location with a wide range of activities on-site or nearby for children of all ages.

You can enjoy three all-weather tennis courts, one of which is floodlit, a children's adventure playground, football goal, croquet, boules, table tennis and a golf practice net. There is also a games room conveniently located within the tennis pavilion which includes a pool table, table football and a selection of video games so even if the weather isn't the best there is still plenty to keep everyone occupied.

Windrush Lake is good for water fun as you can take out your own paddle board, kayak or canoe. The three lakes offer excellent carp and trout fishing from well maintained fishing platforms. Look out for the plentiful wildlife and wildfowl around the lakes, the ducks and geese will often pay you a visit.

Wonderful location
The house was in a good location overlooking the lake. It was also well located for being able to get out and about exploring the area. London is only just over an hour away by train from Kemble train station and parking at the station was vey good. Our dog enjoyed the walks around Windrush and Isis lakes. The customer service was very good and and issues were dealt with promptly and efficiently. Hope to return.

Indian Summer Short Break
5 nights at this lovely little place was fantastic and fell in-line with the gift of a late return to summer. The location was great tucked away with a beautiful lake view. The general condition was comfortable, however the bathroom and ensuite require upgrading to make it accessible. In short was a home away from home, with the tranquil settings. The Orion representatives' level of customer care was exemplary, nothing was ever a problem, which definitely makes this location destination number 1.

10/10 Excellent

Our stay was wonderful, the Orion team were super helpful.
Everything about our stay was 5 stars. The property, the location, the customer service we experienced. The only thing about the trip is it's left my family asking why we have never booked and stayed there previously, as we all loved it that much.

Cosy place with a perfect lake view
Great place for a family holiday. Good choice of activities and places to visit nearby. Kids really enjoyed the selection of games on a rainy day and our dog felt so happy and relaxed too. He even got a welcome gift pack which was a lovely touch. Early morning walks around the lake were divine.

Pleasant stay
Lovely accommodation, great location. Could have had more updated information inside the accommodation about things to do etc. Only stayed 2 nights, would definitely stay longer next time to explore more of the area.
