Fantastic place to stay

Wonderful flat with every amenity we needed. Sitting on the balcony over looking the lake for breakfast and dinner was lovely. We will definitely be back.

10/10 Excellent

Excellent location, bit difficult to find where our apartment was. Poor signage.

Apartment was lovely, but felt it was a bit tired. Doors to decking from the bedroom were swollen at the bottom which made them difficult to shut. Drain smell in the shower. Info description stated there was a club house. Pub and restaurant, did not realise it was Ballyhoo all in one.

Beautifully appointed apartment in a good location to explore the area. We had a lovely stay and everything you could possibly need was where you would expect to find it!!

‘Each property that is listed on Orion Holidays website is carefully chosen for its lake location, character, on-site facilities, guest appeal, high standards of cleanliness and quality of its furnishings.

What makes this property unique

The main attraction of the lodge is being able to relax on the decking with a cool drink in a beautiful lakeside location and enjoy the beautiful surroundings and watch the wildlife. It is close to water sports, many activities, local attractions and many great country pubs, restaurants, tearooms and cafes in and around the Cotswold Lakes.

With many safe cycle trails and well marked footpaths guests can head out and explore the abundant lakes, canals, nature reserves and rivers nearby, including the Thames. The lodge is a great base to head out and visit Cirencester and enjoy the whole Cotswolds region.
