Grebe Lodge

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆:

Days tend to unfold naturally here, that’s the magic of being on the water. Spend some time on the enclosed decking first thing, taking in the view. Maybe take the kayaks out before breakfast? Whoever managed to snag the principal bedroom has the bonus of their own private balcony, which is perfect for sneaking away with your morning coffee and a good book.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲:

Grebe Lodge sleeps eight across four bedrooms, including a ground-floor en-suite ideal for accessibility and a principal bedroom with a private balcony and lake views. One upstairs bedroom can be arranged as a twin bed or super-king. The open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area has glass frontage and wide water views. There’s a smart TV, a sound system, fast Wi-Fi and a utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer. There are also four kayaks available for guests to use.

𝗚𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀:

You’ll have full use of the lodge, the enclosed lakefront decking, the private hot tub, the outdoor dining area and the BBQ. The decking has direct access to the lake, and there’s private parking for two cars right outside the property, with additional parking nearby.

Check in from 3PM and check out by 10AM. You can arrive at your own pace with self check-in via key box, just give us a call if you have any issues.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗱:

Set within the beautiful Cotswold Lakes, you’re surrounded by over 180 lakes, woodland trails and quiet village lanes. The landscape feels open, green and peaceful in every direction. It's the perfect space to be active and explore, ideal for cycling, paddle-boarding, or just walking and enjoying the abundant wildlife and fresh air.

South Cerney is only a few minutes away and is one of the area’s most established villages. Think traditional stone cottages, small, friendly shops, lovely pubs and delightful cafés. Tree-lined lanes and village greens all lead directly towards scenic lakeside routes, so nature’s nearby even when you’re shopping.

Cirencester is about 10-15 minutes by car and offers boutique shopping, restaurants, markets, and a rich sense of history. Kemble Station is also close, with direct trains into London, making this spot practical for quick weekend visits as well as longer stays.

𝗚𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱:

A car is ideal for exploring further, though Kemble Station with direct trains from London is only seven miles away. The 51 bus also runs from the end of the lane to Cirencester and Swindon.

Once here, the area is perfect for walking and cycling, with peaceful landscapes and waterside trails right on your doorstep.

The lodge is set within the Cotswold Lakes and just moments from South Cerney’s pubs, cafés and village shops.

Cirencester is a short drive away, and the wider Cotswolds offer endless walking routes, lakeside paths, country pubs, market towns and local eateries.

𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲:

The house is dog-friendly. Two well-behaved dogs are welcome (£35 per dog). A travel cot and high chair are provided. Paddleboard hire is available on request, and decoration services can be arranged for special occasions. Quiet hours run from 10:30PM to 8AM, and we ask guests to respect the peaceful setting: No parties, and no smoking indoors.

𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗚𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀:

Everybody finds peace in a different way, and that’s how it should be. From the moment you book, you decide the pace, and we’ll be there to help you plan and create moments that really matter. It’s that little extra layer of support we offer to make sure everything runs smoothly. Thoughtful service that never gets in the way of a good moment.

Whether that means a slow morning with a fresh pot of tea and a long soak, or a day out exploring neighbourhoods and nature - we’ll guide you, so it all unfolds just the way you’ve pictured it.

Lovely house with serene setting

Perfect location and a safe haven to escape from the London hustle.Lovely house with all amenities you can think of. Mattresses were uncomfortable as one could feel the spring poke the body. For a luxury location such as this , this aspect needs to be looked into. Thank you for the cake and Prosecco. I would like to suggest if you could consider supporting a small business (even if it’s one medium cup cake ) and couple of local cider or ales or anything that supports the local business. We would happily book again if the mattresses are comfy !
