Shearwater Lake House, Cirencester

Shearwater Lake House4 bedrooms, Sleeps 10 + 1 Baby.

Ducks and swans drifting past the deck are part of daily life here, and the lake is the real draw. Full-height glazing and doors in the open-plan living space keep the water in view even on colder days, when the gas fire becomes the place to gather. This is a strong choice for family groups or friends who want a sociable base in the Cotswolds, with room for 10 across 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, plus a ground-floor bedroom and shower room for anyone less keen on stairs.

The arrangement is more interesting than a standard four-bedroom house: one first-floor bedroom has paddle stairs leading to a galleried sleeping area, while another king-size room has its own en-suite. The kitchen and dining area sit at the heart of the house, opening easily onto the decking for meals outside, and there’s a private hot tub for evenings back from exploring. Dogs are welcome too, though they must stay on a lead, and guests also have use of a shared tennis court and one on-site parking space.
