Property Details
Spacious 3-Bedroom Lodge on The Landings, Cotswold Water Park
Summary
Welcome to Firefly Lodge, a lakeside escape on the Cotswolds’ largest lake, where time slows down, days stretch out, and the water is always close. Paddle boards, kayaks, and wide lake views invite you out, while soft, thoughtful interiors draw you in. Set in a private, open position, it’s a perfect base for families to relax and roam. Soak in the hot tub, share long dinners on the deck, or enjoy easy mornings indoors. At Firefly Lodge, there’s no pressure – just space to make endless memories.

Guest access
The entire house is yours to enjoy – no shared spaces, just the calm of the lake and the freedom to settle in. Check-in is flexible and simple, with a lockbox waiting on arrival. We’ll send the gate code and all the details ahead of time, so everything feels easy from the start. Two dedicated parking spaces are right outside, with extra visitor spots nearby. You’ll also have access to The Landings’ peaceful grounds and tennis court.
The neighbourhood
The neighbourhood is full of lakes which were originally gravel pits. They have matured into a wonderful parkland and offer many activities. South Cerney is a very old village with 2 pubs and a few small shops. It dates back to the 10th century. Cirencester offers excellent shopping, markets and good cafes and restaurants, probably the best small museum in England and a magnificent Church.
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.
Other things to note
Firefly Lodge is a peaceful place designed for calm escapes, slow mornings, and meaningful connection. It’s not suitable for parties or noisy gatherings, and we kindly ask all guests to respect the tranquillity of the lake and the community around it.
