### Cotswold lakeside lodge with free spa access, pool

This beautiful lakeside cottage on the Lower Mill Estate gives a taste of luxury at the popular Cotswold Water Park. No matter the time of year there are endless on-site activities to take advantage of for both adults and children. Family bike rides, fishing trips, a relaxing spa treatment and competitive tennis matches are just a few of the options you can enjoy here. If you venture further, you can explore historic Cirencester, charming Stroud, and popular Burford.  
  
Arranged to take advantage of the lake views, Lamb's Tail has a spacious open plan living area on the first floor. Stepping out onto the balcony with your morning coffee as you watch the peaceful lake ripple before you is an unbeatable way to start your day. We're sure you'll spend most of your time out and about but when you return, the comfort of Lamb's Tail is waiting for you. With a large sofa set before the wood burning stove, you can have a family film night, BBQ on the balcony, or have some time to yourself with a long soak in the tub. Suiting a variety of groups, there are two bedrooms on the ground floor, each well-equipped with comfortable bedding and access to the terrace so you don't miss a moment of this fabulous location.  
  
Between the terrace and balcony there is space for casual evening drinks, to enjoy a good book or a full meal together. A spiral staircase joins the two and you can securely keep bikes here during your stay. There is off-road parking for one car in a designated space and additional overflow parking is available on the estate.  
  
Ground Floor  
  
Bedroom One:  
With a double bed, en-suite bathroom, TV and doors out to the decking this room is designed with relaxation in mind. There is a cot for any new parents and plenty of storage with a chest of drawers and built-in wardrobe.  
  
En-suite:  
In the en-suite is a bath with shower over, WC and sink. Perfect to get some peace and quiet you can unwind with a bubble bath after a day of watersports and long bike rides.  
  
Bedroom Two:  
A fantastic room for children or friends sharing this room has a single bed and bunk beds (upper bed only suitable for children). A TV lets them watch their own programmes and there is a built-in wardrobe. Doors open out to the terrace beyond the bunk bed though access here is limited.  
  
Shower Room:  
Primarily for use of guests staying bedroom two, the shower room has a WC, sink and shower cubicle.  
  
First Floor  
  
Open Plan Living/Kitchen/Dining:  
The open plan living area is a fantastic space with an impressive window dominating the end wall facing across the lake. Doors open out onto the balcony extending this space. The dining area has a table and benches seating four and the well-equipped kitchen has an oven and hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washer/dryer and small appliances including a coffee machine. In the living area is a corner sofa facing the Smart TV and wood burner which has a fireguard.  
  
Outside  
  
The main draw of Lamb's Tail is the lake-facing balcony and terrace. Open the doors to let the outside in and take advantage of the additional room this creates to take meals and drinks outside. The balcony has a table and chairs, gas barbecue and hanging egg seat while on the terrace are two chairs and plenty of space to store bikes.

#### Perfect 3 night stay!

We stayed for a few nights with a 3 year old and newborn, it was absolutely ideal. Large master with cot and all linens. The property is stunning and photos don't do it justice! It's well catered for a young family (toys, cutlery, cups, puzzles etc), and we have already recommended to several friends. The welcome instructions were fab. Parking space is nearby, spa passes lovely and great for BBQs and chilling.

#### Relaxing and great stay!

We had a very relaxing lovely stay at Lamb's Tail. The property had everything we needed, was extremely clean and the view over the lake was perfect. The Lower Mill Estate is very impressive very well kept and with great facilities. We enjoyed going to the Spa for a sauna and swim which Lamb's Tail has spa passes included. Great walks on the doorstep and we loved kayaking which we rented from the Activity Hub. We will come back we had a fabulous stay.

#### .

Management team were excellent in communicating with us. The place was lovely, however there were some items left in the cupboards (inc stale coffee) and fridge (milk) that could have been replaced with fresh coffee/ coffee pods for the coffee machine.
