The Details

Tucked away in a peaceful corner of the award-winning Lower Mill Estate, Cornerstone Cottage is a beautiful Cotswold stone home designed for relaxed family holidays and getaways with friends. Overlooking the tranquil Mill Village water garden, this elegant retreat offers a perfect mix of countryside charm and modern comfort, with everything from a cosy wood-burner to air conditioning throughout.

Step inside and you’ll find a bright, open-plan living and dining space designed for connection and comfort. Sofas gather around a grand inglenook fireplace where you can light the wood-burner and settle in with a good book or glass of wine. French doors open to the south-facing sundeck, where the lake views and birdsong create a wonderfully calming backdrop. Enjoy leisurely breakfasts on the covered veranda or fire up the Weber BBQ for relaxed alfresco dinners under the stars. This is also a fab place for that first cuppa of the day when the sun is shining as you plan the day ahead.

Back inside, the kitchen has been recently upgraded and thoughtfully equipped, with everything you need to prepare meals for your group, whether you’re cooking up a family feast or bringing in a private chef for a special occasion. On sunny days, dine out on the deck, or when the weather’s cooler, you can eat together at the dining table in the kitchen/diner.

When night falls, head upstairs where four stylish bedrooms sleep up to eight guests in complete comfort. Two super-king size rooms each have balconies overlooking the water garden and smart ensuite bathrooms – one with a rain shower, the other with a corner spa bath for indulgent soaks. Two further bedrooms each feature adult-size bunk beds, ideal for friends or family sharing.

Every detail has been considered to make your stay seamless and serene, from ultrafast WiFi and a smart TV for cosy nights in, to complimentary logs for the wood-burner and charcoal for the BBQ.

The cottage is located on the beautiful Lower Mill Spa Estate, giving guests full access to an impressive range of shared facilities. The estate features the exclusive spa, complete with swimming pools (one indoor heated pool, two outdoor heated pools and an unheated reed-filtered eco pool), saunas, a steam room and a gym. For those seeking outdoor activities, there are tennis courts, an astro pitch (MUGA), table tennis, trampolines, football pitches and both nature and bike trails. Guests can also enjoy the estate’s dedicated hides for wildlife watching and several scenic picnic spots dotted around the grounds.

Available onsite at an additional cost, guests can enjoy a variety of convenient and enriching amenities to enhance their stay. The estate features an on-site restaurant and grocery service for dining and everyday essentials, as well as an Activity Hub offering a wide range of experiences such as cycling, kayaking and other watersports. Guests can also indulge in relaxation with professional massage and spa treatments or book the private soft play area for exclusive use, perfect for families with young children.

If you decide to venture out and explore the area, there’s lots to see and do. Step outside and explore the Cotswolds – the largest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the country – where honey-stone villages, rolling hills and historic market towns are all within easy reach.
