Still Waters Lodge has that rare, instant sense of calm that comes from good design and a great view. Soft, Scandinavian-inspired tones, herringbone flooring and thoughtful touches from Moxham Basham and Amy Davies give the whole space a relaxed, considered feel.

Three ways to spend your Cotswold holidays
The Cotswolds offers a collection of very different landscapes, each with its own character. Be.Here. properties are grouped into three types of experience, so it’s easier to find what you’re actually looking for.
On the Water
Lakeside holiday accommodation at the Cotswold Water Park, with over thirty lodges sitting directly on private lakes. Pciture paddleboarding from the terrace. Kayaking at dusk. Soaking in the Hot Tub. The kind of setting that makes mornings feel different. The Cotswold Water Park covers over 40 square miles and more than 150 lakes, making it one of the most distinctive places to stay in the south of England.
Off the Grid
Rural retreats built for people who want to properly disconnect. Private hot tubs, open skies, and very little asking for your attention. The glamping site at Upper Minety falls here, four pods each with its own hot tub, set in open Cotswold countryside with minimal light pollution and direct access to footpaths. It is one of the few glamping sites in the Cotswolds where genuine quiet is part of what you are booking..
In the Neighbourhood
Village-based stays within walking distance of independent shops, proper pubs, and Cotswolds village life at its most familiar. A different pace from the lakeside properties, and just as considered. Market towns like Cirencester and Burford are within easy reach, each worth a morning on foot. There’s something about the fire pit, the quiet, and the absence of anywhere else you need to be makes it difficult to go inside.
