Cornerstone Lower Mill Estate Cotswolds Spa pools lakes water sports nature a/c
Considering booking a stay at Cornerstone Cottage? Please do contact us with any questions.
Our house is a cosy, yet spacious, family-owned contemporary cottage on the private Lower Mill Estate nature reserve in the Cotswolds Water Park.
Tranquil location in secluded water garden away from the busiest parts of Lower Mill Estate, and yet only a short walk from the exclusive spa (included for all our rental guests) & other facilities. Miles of beautiful walks from the front door and a big selection of local sporting, sightseeing and relaxing activities. A favourite is the 15 minute walk to our local pub, The Bakers Arms.
We have owned our holiday home since 2003, specifying the house to be our own rural ‘home away from home’. Now we are delighted to invite you to share the experience and make your own memories.
Many guests have come back again & again, often booking long in advance.
Large sofas to relax by the log fire in winter, or to watch TV. Well-equipped kitchen, and dining area. Games and books for children. Wifi internet.
Large sundeck overlooking peaceful reeded pond, with sun from early morning til evening.
650 acre onsite nature reserve, wildlife abounding (extensive bird life, plants, wild animals, you may catch sight of a heron, an otter or even a beaver).
The £6m ArtSpa (approx. 500m walk) has indoor/outdoor pools, sauna, steam room and treatment rooms. Artspa also offers a wide range of spa treatments using 100% natural plant-extract Pevonia products.
There are also playground areas, trampolines, football area, table-tennis & tennis courts.
Ballihoo restaurant is approx. 500m from our holiday, open most of the year. Small shop & café open peak hours, approx 100m walk - good range of grocery items, good coffee & tea, patisserie and light lunches. As well as selling tasty home-made frozen meals the shop can arrange a chef to come to the house.

About the host
Hosted by Tim+Vanessa
We love travelling and exploring, and we particularly enjoy being in the Cotswolds.
Cornerstone Cottage is a place we are always pleased to come to, our holiday home.
Having holidayed and discovered many countries around the world, it is still right at the top of our choices for holidays and short breaks with family and with friends.
Having lived in Paris for many years, Cornerstone was our home from home - our bolthole retreat.
Our eldest son was born in 2003, the year Cornerstone was built for us. He and his brother have learned to swim here. They have enjoyed walks in the wild, cycling, water sports, sport and just simply getting away with friends and family.
For many years we kept Cornerstone to ourselves, since 2012 we have been pleased to invite people to enjoy a Cornerstone experience as well.
Please do contact us with any questions you may have.

Why they chose this property
Welcome to Cornerstone Cottage, and to the wonderful Lower Mill Estate.
We fell in love with Lower Mill Estate when first visited and we jumped at the chance to be a part of it. We have owned Cornerstone Cottage since it was built in 2003, being involved in its design & layout. Over the years we have grown to love it more and more and we keep on making new discoveries, and trying things our guests have recommended as well.
The approach to Cornerstone Cottage, with views of the lakes and water gardens, sets the scene for an active, relaxing holiday surrounded by nature. The cottage is at the end of a stone pathway, in a quiet and secluded location away from the Estate’s internal roads, yet within a few minutes’ walk of the Activity Hub and Pilates centre, the lakes, nature trails and the LME Spa.
A perfect venue for all sorts of holidays and short breaks. With 2 ensuite double bedrooms, 2 further bedrooms and family bathroom as well as a fully-equipped kitchen.
We want your holiday to be all it should be and more - please contact us with any questions you may have.
