The Cotswold’s produces lots of great local foods and has more than its fair share of passionate artisans.

Pet Friendly Couples Holiday

Whilst at the Lake…

October is a romantic time of year to be staying at the lake. Enjoy wrapping up and heading out around the 2 mile lakeside walk. Our rarest bird sightings are often in October when we sometimes see bittern and osprey. So keep an eye out whilst soaking in the hot tub as you take in the surrounding sights and sounds of the nature reserve. As the temperatures begin the fall, everyone will appreciate gathering around your fire pit or indoor log fire and toasting a few marshmallows. Clear nights mean lots of stars to look out for too. If you want to try a spot of fishing, the colder water now certainly makes this a good time to throw the spinner in.
