Serendipity | Cotswold Lakehouse | Hot Tub & Kayak

Summary:

Serendipity Lodge is one of those homes that feels instantly welcoming. With four bedrooms, four bathrooms and bright, open-plan living, it’s made for groups who want comfort and simplicity. Afternoons roll by easily, from barbecues on the decking to a soak in the hot tub. Then evenings settle into long catch-ups, films or a quiet drink on the balcony.



The Space:

Serendipity sleeps eight across four bedrooms, with four bathrooms for an easy, well-set-up stay. The master bedroom has its own lake-view balcony, and the entire downstairs is open-plan, bright and flexible for group living. The lounge is made for long catch-ups, with Smart TV, Sky, and fast Wi-Fi. A utility room provides a washing machine and tumble dryer.



Guest Access:

You’ll have full use of the lodge, the enclosed lakefront decking, the private hot tub, the outdoor dining area and the BBQ. The decking has direct access to the lake, and private parking is right outside the property.



Check in from 3PM and check out by 10AM.



You can arrive at your own pace with self check-in via key box, just give us a call if you have any issues.



The Neighborhood:

Set within the beautiful Cotswold Lakes, you’re surrounded by over 180 lakes, woodland trails and quiet village lanes. The landscape feels open, green and peaceful in every direction. It's the perfect space to be active and explore, ideal for cycling, paddle-boarding, or just walking and enjoying the abundant wildlife and fresh air.



South Cerney is only a few minutes away and is one of the area’s most established villages. Think traditional stone cottages, small, friendly shops, lovely pubs and delightful cafés. Tree-lined lanes and village greens all lead directly towards scenic lakeside routes, so nature’s nearby even when you’re shopping.



Cirencester is about 10-15 minutes by car and offers boutique shopping, restaurants, markets, and a rich sense of history. Kemble Station is also close, with direct trains into London, making this spot practical for quick weekend visits as well as longer stays.



Getting Around:

A car is ideal for exploring the surrounding villages and lakes. That said, Kemble Station (direct trains from London) is just 7 miles away, and the 51 bus runs from the end of the lane to Cirencester and Swindon. Once you arrive, walking and cycling are great ways to enjoy the peaceful landscape.



Other Things to Note:

The house is pet friendly. Two well-behaved dogs are welcome (£35 per dog). A travel cot and high chair are provided. Paddleboard hire is available on request, and decoration services can be arranged for special occasions.



Quiet hours run from 10:30PM to 8AM, and we ask guests to respect the peaceful setting: No parties, and no smoking indoors.



Interaction with Guests:

Everybody finds peace in a different way, and that’s how it should be. From the moment you book, you decide the pace, and we’ll be there to help you plan, and create moments that really matter. It’s that little extra layer of support we offer to make sure everything runs smoothly. Thoughtful service, that never gets in the way of a good moment.



Whether that means a slow morning with a fresh pot of tea and a long soak, or a day out exploring neighbourhoods and nature - we’ll guide you, so it all unfolds just the way you’ve pictured it.

The house is fabulous. It’s immaculately presented. The facilities are all excellent. The attention to detail is great - expensive shower products and hand washes in all bathrooms, the kitchen is really well equipped with high quality utensils and equipment (not like some places who’ve stocked up on the cheap) There were fresh flowers in all rooms. The view over the lake and from the hot tub are fabulous. We even saw a Kingfisher land on the balustrade as we had coffee one morning. The communication from the hosts was brilliant with access to them via WhatsApp. Would definitely recommend.
