7 'Adults'. Great kitchen dining room living room. All facilities. Clean and tidy and good service from Orion. Fab outside area. Pool table a big hit. Tennis and of course nearby waterskiing. This was our third visit and would highly recommend. Not the cheapest weekend away...
Had a lovely stay in this cottage in the Cotswold Water Park. The surroundings are beautiful and the cottage is a really lovely, welcoming place to stay. We had a lovely family Christmas there
We arranged for our daughters to get together for a weekend after their exams. This was an ideal location to relax and unwind. The property itself was lovely and clean with everything you needed. Lots of outdoor space to walk, play and just sit and relax The kayaking and canoeing was just round the corner. We all had a great time
We had a peaceful retreat at Isis Lake. The house was lovely and well resourced for all our needs. The third bedroom was too small for the additional twin bed and 2 teenagers to move around comfortably but this was our only issue. The area is beautiful and is well looked after. The families were respectful and quiet. There were children playing in the play area, tennis courts, table tennis house and club house which if our girls were younger would have been great - they still enjoyed the tennis this year! The house is a great base for visiting the local area and we had a great day out to Westo...more
A wonderfully presented house in a fantastic location. Ideal as a base to go and explore the local and not so local corners of the Cotswolds. Excellent customer service as well ensures a return booking next year.
We enjoyed a lovely week on this Cotswold Water Park site. The house was well equipped, clean and very comfortable. Our grandchildren enjoyed the play area and cycling safely around the reasonably secure site. Our only criticism was the 'allocated' parking system which was a bit of a free-for-all as cars from properties some distance away parked in our numbered space.
Myself and husband (fly fishing enthusiasts), two friends from Australia and another friend stayed here 30 Jun - 1 July, 2019. We absolutely loved the place. We met many great people during our short stay everyone was so nice including the Security Gate Staff, in particular, the Indian Welsh Security Guy. If you like fishing in particular fly fishing, this place is a little peace of heaven, if you don't like fishing this place is also a little peace of heaven. We would highly recommend and will most definitely return again next year.
We rented windrush for a 50th birthday celebration and it turned out to be the ideal choice. The views over the lake , so peaceful and relaxing, and the house layout with kitchen/diner opening to terrace was ideal for celebrating with friends and family. Ideally situated within easy reach of Cirencester with its markets and fishmongers, we couldn't have asked for more. Highly recommended!
We took food, drink and games with us and it was so good, we didn't leave the lodge all weekend. Great place to chill and watch the wildlife swim and fly past or quack at your door.
Great trip as always on Windrush from Orion Holidays. Thanks to Mark, Oli and the team, we will be back again.
Yet another great holiday at Cotswold Water Park. First time staying in one of the ‘towers’ Number 41 The Van. Very spacious and light. Loved the wrap around deck. Orion Holidays excellent to deal with.
Great location for visiting the Cotswold and for being centrally situated. The house was well furnished and had everything we needed. Heating was very heat and miss and at times the house was unbearably hot. Some of the rooms need a bit of repair work done but all in all was a lovely stay.
We have stayed in this lodge several times over the last 7 years, and it has been perfect. We are a family group, with ages ranging from a baby of 16 months to a great-grandad of 97 years! we have been quite comfortable over the years, but with the sofas being low, we have always had to take some higher chairs with us. We have always found the lodge clean and full of all the things we may need, from toilet rolls and liquid soap to tin foil and salt and pepper. Extras such as tissues, kitchen rolls, ice and cooking oil, we have taken with us. We have often arranged a Tesco delivery to arrive at...more
Wonderful holiday beautiful spacious house, very well maintained, plenty of well kept outside grounds
Amazing place to be, the longer you are there the better it gets. Brilliant place to unwind with a group of friends or family, plenty of things to do and places to visit. The house was much more spacious than it looks online which was a pleasant surprise.
32b Summer lake is a beautiful well equipped house with spectacular views over the lake. We spent a very relaxing week there ( myself, husband and four teenagers) and there was enough space for us all. A couple of the beds are obviously children sized (which were a little small for a 6ft lad) but he managed!! We made good use of the gas barbecue and, as you would imagine, with four teenagers, the wi-fi.
This was our second trip to Clearwater 28 and although the weather was not as stunning as our previous visit we enjoyed our stay just as much. We even managed to get our Mum and dog out on the canoes, although the highlight had to be when our uncle fell off his paddle board. We cooked at the house all weekend and the found the kitchen to be fully equipped, the improvements with the new sofas and Smart TV since our last visit were appreciated. All in all a very good base for a family weekend break. The service from Orion was very good, especially Mark. Thank you
Great location, perfect size for our needs. We love staying at Damsel Cottage. A wonderful family getaway. Thank you.
The house was well equipped and located to provide a relaxed weekend for a multi aged group. Twin bedrooms slightly too small.
Had stayed twice previously so we knew what to expect. Very well equipped and comfortable. A good family holiday
Booked for 3 nights stay with son,daughter-in -law, 5yr. 3yr. and 9 month old grandchildren. Very nice nice property with good kitchen and three bathrooms plus cloakroom. Laundry facilities if needed for a longer stay. Nice deck on three sides to sit out on if weather permits. Excellent grass area for games. Membership of spa included, which has very nice indoor and out door pool plus treatment rooms if wanted. Only one parking space per unit on site but extra parking short walk away. Glad I packed collapsable trolley as made transporting of luggage and food etc. easy as 25 -30 yards from pa...more
A very good place to stay between house moves. Good to see all the birds while walking in the nature reserve. Although no beavers!
All of the family, grandparent, son and daughter-in-law, grandsons thoroughly unjoyed the stay, conditions and surrounding area. Fishing was excellent, so to were the games facilities. Local food was very good in pubs restaurants, Summer lake .brassiere visited many times. All round great time!!!!!!
A very spacious lodge, superb kitchen with plenty of good quality utensils etc. . Liked having the two separate seating areas. Loved the underfloor heating. The hot tub was lovely and very private. Loved the front outside sitting area too off the downstairs bedroom. The back seating area views were private and relaxing, with the ducks, and beautiful scenery. What we found very useful was the electronic tablet which we used as a guide. The downside is all of the sofas need replacing because they are uncomfortable and worn. Would have liked more light outside. Smoke alarm was too sensit...more
A fantastic venue for a large family birthday weekend. Super setting with lots to see and enjoy. So good we may make it an annual event.
We visited spring lake and booked a lodge to be lakeside and make full use of the Waterski and wakeboard boats which it is ideal for other than the fact the lake was closed for a full day and only open for half days. This meant the only time we got to use the lake where the lodge was located was on our last day after we checked out of the lodge. Not particularly ideal. The lodge itself was clean and comfortable and we would recommend booking but if you book it with lake activity in mind you might find yourself back and forth to 4Lakes which is what we had to get on the water. Food on site is...more
This was our first visit to the Cotswolds. We were looking for a property suitable for a family of 5 adults and a 1 year old. I found Orion Holidays via Google and what a find. They are an excellent company with the personal touch. The booking of the property was excellent. The advisor was very knowledgeable about the area and guided us to the property which was just right for us. We had a lovely stay and the icing on the cake was that the weather was great!
We spent 4 days at Tide Cottage. The location is great and the property was reasonably well equipped. The weather wasn’t too kind to us but still plenty to do. We have already booked to return next year albeit to a different cottage.
Second year staying in this property for a week visiting the International Air Tattoo at Fairford. Excellent location for this and it's lovely to get back from a long day at the show to the beautiful lakeside view. The property is well equipped and comfortable. Well decorated, with plenty of homely touches without been too personalized so didn't feel as if invading someones home.
We went as a family of 6 to stay for a week at this property. It was exceptionally clean and well equipped. Location was perfect, my elderly mother particularly enjoyed the balcony outside her bedroom with the hanging rattan chairs! The only thing I could say was that the bed in the master bedroom wasn’t particularly comfortable but that is probably a matter of personal test. The service from Orion was exceptional from start to finish, even bringing us an alternative DVD player within a couple of hours of me pointing out that the one in the house didn’t seem to be working. Nothing was too muc...more
Didn't like bedroom windows couldn't have them open when it rained. Other than that we liked the property.
This house is fantastic and it is in a wonderful setting. The house is comfortable, spacious and well laid out. The beds are particularly comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. Owners provided useful information. I would recommend this as a place to stay!
Really enjoyable stay other than what I mentioned above, not your fault I should have mentioned it when booking. I loved the tablet for information, one thing we had a problem with was the 5 girls next door as the walls are very thin and not sound proofed, we had 2 days of noise we couldn't sleep, but they were young and enjoying themselves! We were amazed at how well the accommodation was equipped.
It's a fantastic lovely place very quite great for walking. Great walks around the area to walk the dog. Good fishing on site to give you a challenge especially if you fish the big lake. Very good holiday home but a little update on sofas would be nice. A nice touch is the welcome plate especially the biscuits. It's a bit pricey for a weekend away but would go back as we have several times.
We stayed here for a long weekend and the cottage is very spacious and has everyone you need and more, the bedrooms are spacious and the decking area lovely, the only thing we had to do was sweep the decking the day we got there but they was all, excellent location near the children’s playground and swimming pool, would definitely recommend and would go back.
The property was well positioned, clean, warm. Kitchen area was good. Teas and coffee supplied was a good idea.
Wonderful 3 bed cottage , perfect location for a few weeks away - kindly allowed ya to bring dog and cat so everyone got a break - Orion sorted everything for us , thank you Guys !
Nice enough little holiday home, however ... Our party was two families, comprising of 3 teens and 4 adults and I have to say it was a bit of a squeeze with the twin rooms being only just big enough for 2 beds and no room to manoeuvre around them. The second double had no wardrobes and occupants had to use the storage space on the landing which was just awkward - the twin rooms also had no wardrobes, just drawers. There was no heating thermostat so we found ourselves constantly too hot or too cold. The master bedroom only had double doors no window so airing the room at night was also awkward...more
It would have been nicer if the trees outside the sitting area were a little shorter so the lake could be seen.
Overall the house was comfortable and clean but there were a few things that let it down slightly like the dishwasher not working very well. The customer service was very good and the access to onsite facilities, like the pool and lakes were great.
