About this property

The Boathouse - Romantic Glass Lodge - Hot Tub

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆:

A glass-fronted hideaway on a private lake, The Boathouse is a one-of-a-kind retreat for two. Soak in the hot tub, kayak at sunrise, or just stay in with the log burner glowing and the water right outside your window. With a sun deck over the lake, a mezzanine bedroom, and access to wild swimming, trails and total stillness - this is where you come to disconnect, slow down, and feel completely away.

Fully booked? Search for Willow, Waterlily or Island - identical escapes on the same lake.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲:

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗱:

Little Horseshoe Lake is a private gated retreat with just five homes on two tranquil lakes. You’re in South Cerney, surrounded by peaceful nature but only a short drive from the independent charm of Cirencester and the 180+ lakes that make up the Cotswold Lakes.

🚶 Within 10 minutes’ walk:

• 10+ pubs, cafés and restaurants

• Award-winning dining and relaxed local gems

• Country walks, lakeside strolls, and wild beauty

𝗚𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱:

A car is ideal to make the most of the area, though the 51 bus route (Cheltenham to Swindon) runs nearby, and Kemble Station is just 7 miles away with fast trains to London. Taxis should be pre-booked.

About the host

Hosted by Be.Here.

Host profile image

We're Be.Here. Stays, a boutique property management company that looks after a hand-picked collection of exceptional homes in the Cotswolds.

Every property in our portfolio has been personally selected, styled and maintained to a high standard, because we believe the space you stay in genuinely shapes the quality of your break. We're not a listing agency. We manage every home directly, which means consistent quality, attentive service and a team that genuinely loves what they do.

Beyond the homes themselves, we offer a guest concierge service to help make your stay truly effortless. Whether that's recommending the best local restaurants, arranging a private chef, organising activities or sourcing that little something extra to make a special occasion feel memorable. However much or little support you need, we're here for it.

Why they chose this property

The Cotswolds is famous for good reason: the rolling hills, the picture-perfect villages, the honey-coloured cottages that seem to deepen in colour by late afternoon.

What tends to surprise people is everything else. Cheltenham Jazz Festival pulls a line-up you'd expect from a much larger city, and the Royal International Air Tattoo at Fairford is one of the great spectacles of the British summer. Theatres, galleries, antique shops and the kind of coffee stops worth a detour are scattered across the region, often in places you wouldn't think to look.

Daylesford Organic started as a farmshop and has quietly become something closer to a country estate you can spend the day inside, spa included. The Bull at Charlbury does a Sunday roast worth planning the weekend around. Aynhoe Park, since Restoration Hardware took it on, is somewhere between a country house and an art installation. The Cotswold Lakes are a world of their own, lodges on the water, paddleboards waiting for you, room to explore and room to do nothing at all.

This is our neighbourhood. So whether you're after a dog-friendly weekend of long walks and pub fires, a five-star house with a hot tub overlooking a lake, or somewhere to base yourself for a festival weekend, welcome. We're here to help.

What makes this property unique

Be.Here. is a collection of homes built for the kind of short stay that actually feels like one. Each one is different in setting, character, and shape of weekend, but they share the same quiet instinct for what a good break needs.

Nothing is left to chance. We've stayed in enough short-let homes to know which details matter, and we build every Be.Here. home around the ones that do.

Because a short break should feel like a real one. Whether you're here on your own with a book, around a long table with friends, or somewhere in between, the home should disappear into the background and let the weekend happen. That's the art of a great stay.
