Lake house holiday rentals in United Kingdom

Absolutely loved our stay!!! The house is beautiful with great amenities. There was a lovely welcome gift from our host, who was always super responsive. The setting is amazing- so peaceful and the children loved seeing all of the farm animals, especially the wild ponies in the evening right outside the gate. (The adults loved this too!). We really enjoyed walking and driving across the moor. Our favorite part was sitting in and walking (yes, it’s that big!) around the outstanding garden. It is absolutely stunning! There’s plenty of outside seating, sofas, and a large dining table to accommodate everyone. We had a beautiful dinner outside one evening. I highly recommend this wonderful home. Fabulous stay! We can’t wait to return.

Great find! Was really impressed with this place and it was perfect for what we needed for the weekend. Had everything you could think of, even toys and games for children, as well as a complimentary basket of goodies for us when we arrived! We enjoyed the juke box the most and listened to lots of songs on there! The house fitted 7 of us comfortably and was very clean! Lee was very proactive and ensured we had a great stay - thank you!

Stayed for 3 nights for a get together with old friends. Weather was lovely and so we sat straight by the lake with a beer and spit of fishing. The views are fantastic and the surroundings are beautiful. Inside the place was spotless with lots of Room even with 5 of us inside. All the amenities we required were on hand. Good WiFi meant we were all able to communicate without any issues. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. Pure bliss! Walked over to the old boat house for a meal and drinks and then also walked to the Eliot arms for another great meal out. Didn’t want it to end. Would highly recommend this to either a family or group of friends. Awesome!

Such a wonderful location with use of the lake for paddleboarding and sailing……. Property was brilliant and well presented. Kate was always on hand to answer any questions and very responsive. Would be more than happy to return again.

The photos do not do the place justice - it is absolutely beautiful and so thoughtfully decorated. So much bigger than it looked online too and we had a great stay. The only issue we had was that the hot water stopped working mid way through the day. Elizabeth was super helpful and responsive to the problem but we had to be in Newcastle for early evening so it meant 6 of our party had to have freezing cold showers one day as the water took too long to come back on. Other than that, I can’t fault it. Surroundings are beautiful. So peaceful and yet close to shops, airport (25 mins), a gorgeous spa (matfen hall), and a 35 min minibus to Newcastle. Would recommend to all.

A really lovely stay in South Cerney - the place was perfect, clean and comfy, with everything we needed/wanted including a BBQ and games, and in a beautiful setting and with lots to do on the doorstep. Highly recommend.

Wonderful place. Thank you for the lovely treats on arrival and the use of the kayak. Liz

Great location, just steps away from the lake. The jetty was right by the back door to get on to the lake easily.

Perfect base for a lads and dads weekend. All the facilities we needed, comfortable, gorgeous views, no faff.

The cottage was absolutely beautiful and exactly what we needed! the views were absolutely beautiful and the area was peaceful and relaxing. The welcome guide was so indepth and had recommendations for everything! Would definitely come back again!

Had a great time staying here with some friends for a long weekend in the Lake District. Really unique house, and easy access to great hikes.

The promise of the view was fabulous and we were not disappointed. If you are looking for a peaceful and secluded place, this is the place. It is not perfectly placed if you are looking for tourist places to visit but the place is enough for itself for a few nights and it is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the calm. The bedrooms and living rooms are very beautiful and well decorated. Thank you for providing a beautiful home like this.

Exceeded our expectations despite being beautifully presented. They bought us a bottle of champagne for our birthday and were extremely flexible and accommodating. Loved our stay thank you Marta and team.

This place was perfect, we stayed here in May 2025 for 3 nights before our wedding with our 4 year old and 2 year old and our only regret is that we didn’t book for longer! Pollyanna offered us an early check in as soon as it was ready and greeted us upon arrival. She sent lots of recommendations when we booked which was very helpful too. It’s completely private, perfect location, situated on a farm in the country side, lots of wildlife to look out for whilst relaxing in the garden having a bbq or using the hot tub. It’s safe and secure for young children to play and there is a beautiful private lake just through the gate with a boat, paddle boards and a summer house with a ping pong table. It’s very nicely furnished inside, well equipped, easy parking, bathrooms and showers are great and we found the beds very comfortable. It was a pleasure to meet both Ian and Pollyanna who wished us well on our wedding day. We hope to come back again someday soon!

absolutely wonderful place, very spacious, big and catered for all our needs. peaceful & beautiful area, amenities little over priced. kids loved the pool, had fun, lovely location, feel very safe. Thank you

Absolutely perfect stay in a beautiful area. The house was spotless and even bigger than the photos show! It was perfect for 4 adults and my 16 month old daughter. Stuart sent great instructions through and loads of information about the local area, although we actually loved the house and grounds so much that we didn’t venture any further - we had a lovely few relaxing days in the house and walks around the woodland. My daughter even got to feed the goats. Will definitely come back, and will do a summer visit too as the pool looked beautiful.

We loved the cottage very comfortable amazing views in a beautiful setting. The hot tub overlooking the lake was idyllic. Sarah was a fabulous host nothing was too much trouble. Children friendly games etc well equipped the grandchildren loved the cats visiting, feeding the goats treats and playing in the garden. Plenty of wonderful walks we loved the canal walks stumbled across great cafes pubs and local shops...the local pub the junction had a great menu and food was delicious. We would definitely come back again thanks again Sarah

The Barn is a beautiful restoration with amazing attention to detail. It is set in a very quiet, peaceful & picturesque area. Cameron & Abi have ensured you have everything you might need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is very well equipped with utensils & a variety of cooking, tea & coffee making options. The lounge & sunroom areas are beautifully furnished. The bedroom is large & light filled with a very comfortable bed. The bathroom is spotless, & the shower is amazing. A short & scenic walk over the hill will take you into Ardfern. I recommend Lucy’s cafe for food & coffee. On arrival you are met by Cameron’s dad, Phil; who is very friendly, accommodating & a fount of knowledge of the local area & its history. Cameron & Abi are very proactive, positive & communicative hosts. I highly recommend the Barn as a stunning, comfortable, serene & pleasant place to stay.

a magical stay, that was just what we needed. we had lots of fun wild swimming, using the kayaks, BBQ and lots of lovely walks near by. Great for families or a romantic getaway. We feel we have found a very special place, and hope to come back soon to create more happy memories

We had a wonderful stay. The house and its surroundings were exactly as described – it really does have the feel of a luxury hotel, but with the warmth and space of a home. It’s beautifully decorated, spacious, and welcoming. The views are stunning, and the beach is just a stone’s throw away – perfect for our 4.5-year-old to walk to. Town is also just a short five-minute stroll away. We’d also highly recommend Highlanes Fish & Chips – only a five-minute drive and well worth it. All in all, a lovely stay. Clean, spacious, fantastic views, and a brilliant location.

We stayed here to celebrate my Dad’s 70th birthday as a family. The house is absolutely beautiful, it’s very clean and the interior suits the surroundings perfectly. The view of the water is stunning and so lovely to look at first thing in the morning! I would highly recommend. There’s also lots to do on site which is real bonus. We walked to the local pub, the Bakers Arms which we’d highly recommend for a short but pleasant walk. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Stephen and Michelle were so friendly and generous, plenty of wood for fire and fire all made up for us, also lovely little touches everywhere and plenty of goodies to consume 🙂 Such a quite and quaint place to stay. Had everything you need and more! Always conmunicative and highly recommended. Good spot for exploring Enniskillen and surrounds.

A beautiful location with easy access to the lake. Fabulous to swim and walk directly from the property with no need to get in your car. The sauna was a wonderful addition to warm up after our cold water swimming . A warm welcome with the nice basket of local product . Thank you Tina

We had a wonderful time at The Stables. This is an absolutely beautiful property in the heart of the Cotswolds, and the unit itself is just perfect. Five stars all the way around. We hope to return soon! Thanks to Ian for being such a helpful, responsive, and kind host!
