Our second time staying in this property. Lots of space for our 2 families, extremely comfortable living area and fantastic kitchen/dining area, very sociable. Pub at the end of the drive does great food and the property is in a brilliant location for exploring the Cotswolds or local walks from the door. We’ll definitely be back for another visit.

A perfect property for the family
This is a lovely property that has everything you need. The living room is very cozy with a fire and perfect sofas to lounge in. The rooms are all a great size and the beds are very comfortable It also has a pub right next to it that is very welcoming and has a lovely roast dinner. The wifi only works well in the living but when you are here with family that is a minor issue.

Family Weekend
First trip to the Cotswolds and we had a wonderful stay at Lakeside House. Spacious and comfortable , fully equipped and great location. Lovely walks on the doorstep, good choice of pubs within 3 miles and the hosts , Jacky & Huw, couldn’t be more helpful.
We would highly recommend Lakeside House and are hoping to visit again.

50th anniversary
Lakeside House, the property is not on the lakeside and you do not get access to the lake or grounds, accommodation is good plenty of space for our celebrations with the family, there is plenty of kitchen equipment but only one bedroom has an on suite and toilets did not flush properly, Also it would have been helpful to have a welcome pack with information about the let and local amenities, helpful phone numbers, etc. access to countryside walks was perfect. local pub which is next door is welcoming and serves good food .

Delightful weekend in the Cotswolds
We had a delightful stay at this cottage for my mother's birthday weekend, and it was everything we hoped for and more! The cottage was not only warm and welcoming but also extremely well-equipped, making our stay comfortable and convenient. The living room was perfect for hosting, easily accommodating our family gatherings with ample space.
The house had plenty of room for all of us, with spacious bedrooms that provided the privacy and comfort we all appreciated. The host was incredibly helpful and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed to make the most of our time there.
We highly recommend this cottage for anyone looking for a perfect getaway, and we are eagerly looking forward to our next visit. A truly memorable experience!

A great stay in the Cotswolds.
We had a very comfortable stay and loved the house. It has been furnished very well and gives off a very cosy feel. The only thing I would say is the ground floor bedroom with the en-suite was very cold at night due to the doorway in the bedroom. There was a draft coming through and it made the room feel quite damp by the morning. Also there are no windows in the en-suite bathroom so it stayed wet in there during our entire stay! Personally I think the door needs to be sealed if it isn’t being used. But overall it was a fantastic place to stay!

Thank you George for your review of Lakeside House. We are delighted to hear that you found the property to be comfortable, well furnished and cosy. There is a heavy thick curtain that drawers across the bedroom door and a new seal has been applied to the en-suite shower. We hope you will be back to stay again soon!

Comfortable stay, well-located!
We had a comfortable 3-night stay at Lakeside House. Beds were comfortable, everything was clean, and my kids greatly appreciated the TV in the great room. (I greatly appreciated the washer for laundry, and although there was no electric dryer, everything line-dried very quickly on the warmers or on hangers.) We did not cook while we were there, but it looked like the kitchen was fully stocked.
Fossebridge was well-located right off the main road that connects multiple Cotswold towns. It's adjacent to Inn at Fossebridge where we had two very satisfying dinners (remember to make reservations - they had no space for us the first
night!). There is outdoor seating with a small yard, but contrary to its name, there is no direct lake view. The Chedworth Roman Villa was 15 minutes away, as were Bibury and Bourton-on-the-Water.
My only suggestions would be to have some sort of welcome binder to orient to nearby locations. Also, there seem to be an inordinate number of various spiders and bugs, but perhaps this is normal for the area.
Thank you for a comfortable stay!

Delightful Stay at Lakeside
We recently stayed at the beautiful AT Lakeside and had a wonderful time. Our visit was for a wedding, which we paired with a family break including grandparents and children, allowing us to spend a week exploring the area. The house was incredibly spacious and spotlessly clean, situated in a lovely, serene setting. It provided a perfect blend of comfort and countryside charm.
The location was ideal for our adventures. The quaint village of Bibury, with the must-see Arlington Row, and Burton-on-the-Water was just a short drive away, as was the bustling town of Cirencester. We also enjoyed visits to the Cotswolds Wildlife Park and Sudeley Castle, which the kids loved. One of the highlights was attending the Giffords Circus, a unique and entertaining experience.
Our host, Huw, was very welcoming and provided great recommendations for local sights and activities. His suggestion to visit Burton-on-the-Water turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. The pub next door to the house was also very welcoming, offering a cozy spot to relax after a day of exploring.
The surroundings of Lakeside were picturesque, with plenty of natural beauty to enjoy. The spaciousness of the house made it perfect for relaxing in comfort.
Overall, our stay at Lakeside was fantastic, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking to experience the charm of the Cotswolds. A big thank you to Huw for the excellent local tips!
