You enter the property into a spacious open-plan living area, perfect for socialising with loved ones, with a fully-equipped kitchen supplying everything you need to allow the dedicated chef of the group to rustle up an evening meal, to be enjoyed around the dining table as you plan the next day's adventure. For a more relaxed evening indoors, grab a spot on the sofa and flick on the Smart TV for a family film night.

    Only a few things that would be helpful, pull up handle on the side of the bath and not too serious we could not find any salt and pepper otherwise a very comfortable stay - thank you, the fishing was spot on,

    We moved out nearby whilst we had decorating done to our house in South Cerney. Overall it was very good. I will list a few niggles and finish with the best bits. On the negative side - some of the fixtures and fittings need a refresh, like the showers which have black mould marks and are grubby in parts. The kitchen utensils for cooking also need a renewal along with the cloths drying rack and ironing board which are well past their use by date. On the positive side - on arrival 3 heating units needed urgent attention and the owner was contacted and the service company called almost immediately, they replaced three heaters on the same day, very good! The property is in a pretty location and being off season we pretty much had the entire lake to ourselves, it has amazing views.
