UK Summer Holidays

Book a lakeside log cabin for the summer, the most wonderful time to come and explore our beautiful private reserve. We truly believe that the Cotswolds is the best destination for UK summer holidays and it’s the perfect place for families, groups or couples to embrace the great outdoors. Your short break in the Cotswolds at our unique nature reserve will offer vast outdoor space for kids, pets and the whole family and there are plenty of luxuries for a relaxing or romantic break too. Plus our luxury lodges are utterly unique and unlike any other commercial holiday homes; not only are they authentically Scandinavian which makes them light, airy and cool in the summer, but all 8 of our homes are tucked away in secret spots so you’ll be totally secluded, with no-one else in sight.

We didn’t know places like this existed! We have been on many family holidays but this is by far the best. Thank you for creating such a hidden spot away from it all.

Family Fun At The Lake

Bring your whole family to one of our lakeside retreats and you’ll be spoiled for choice with great things to do. You can even bring your dog on our pet friendly staycations. We think that every day should begin in your waterside hot tub, so you can take in the sounds of the surrounding nature reserve and looking for movements in the water that might mean the otters are nearby. From your own private jetty, you can take a rowing boat out to explore the islands and 100 acres of water. And if you and the kids need to cool off in the heat, why not take a plunge in the lake from your cabins own beach or try our favourite new sport of paddle boarding? Our spring fed lake is incredibly clean and ideal for wild swimming or just for dipping your toes in. Summer really doesn’t get any better than this in the UK and when the sun goes down, you can gather around your private fire pit for some stargazing and quality time with loved ones. Check out our At the Lake page for more fun things to do in the summer.

The Perfect Summer Log Cabin

Our spacious log cabins are designed for family and group holidays, and because they’re authentically Scandinavian, they’re built to feel wonderfully cool and airy in the summer (and cosy in the winter). Each cabin has a fully equipped kitchen for a convenient self-catering holiday here in the UK and your only dilemma will be choosing where to eat. Each cabin boasts panoramic views from inside whilst outdoors tables on the decking can offer the perfect al fresco meal. Look for the swing chair hanging from the trees nearby and you can enjoy your food in peaceful surroundings if you’re on a peaceful romantic break or gather around the fire pit for a rustic experience. Each lodge also boasts large stylish bathrooms with big powerful showers and roll top baths for complete summertime luxury.
