Property Details
Ardross is for groups of friends and families – anyone who wants time away that still feels calm. Sleeping 8 across 4 bedrooms, it sits directly on the water at the Cotswold Water Park, with a kayak on the lake, a hot tub on the decking and enough space inside for eight people to genuinely relax without feeling on top of each other.
The open-plan layout means you’ll naturally drift toward the kitchen together, with the decking and hot tub just outside when you need air. The principal bedroom has its own private lounge, so there’s always somewhere quieter to retreat to, whatever the size of your group.
Here’s how it might play out. Mornings start slowly, coffee overlooking the lake while the kids work out how quickly they can get in the kayak. Afternoons you head out and explore nearby villages. By evening it’s back to basecamp: dinner indoors or al fresco, the hot tub ready, and the simple pleasure of being together somewhere worth being.

Exploring Nearby
Ardross sits within the Cotswold Water Park, a landscape of over 180 lakes, woodland trails and quiet village lanes in the southern Cotswolds. It’s one of the best spots in the region for outdoor life: cycling, paddleboarding, wild swimming, birdwatching, or simply walking somewhere open and green.
South Cerney is a 5-minute drive, one of the most established villages in the area. Stone cottages, independent shops, good pubs and village greens that connect directly to lakeside walking routes.
Cirencester, the Cotswolds’ largest market town, is 10 to 15 minutes by car. Boutique shops, restaurants, a twice-weekly market and nearly 2,000 years of Roman history. Worth an afternoon at minimum.
Kemble Station is under 10 minutes from the property with direct trains to London Paddington in around 80 minutes, making Ardross a practical choice for city-based groups as well as those already in the region.
