Stylish New England lakeside retreat in the Cotswold Water Park

For Covid-19 cancellations, Staycation Holidays offer a full money back guarantee. If you or we have to cancel your booking due to government restrictions relating to Covid - you will receive a full refund, or you may decide to choose alternative dates.

Welcome to Caterina Lake Lodge, our chic New England-style lakeside retreat with plenty of room for six. Located on Spring Lake, our lodge has prime position in the Cotswold Water Park, one of the best kept secrets of Gloucestershire! One of 150 lakes in an area the size of Jersey, there’s so much to explore and something for everyone. Wildlife, watersports, activities, great eateries, walking, history and culture are just some of the things you will find nearby.

Our chic New England-style lakeside retreat has so much to offer it that it is hard to know where to start! For most, the pretty clapper board-style exterior and fantastic water-front setting make a brilliant first impression, whilst the convenience of the location within steps of a family-friendly lakeside bar, brasserie and gym come a close second.

The house itself has been stylishly renovated to mirror this setting, offering super views from inside and out. Downstairs, it’s fully open plan and French doors open out onto your own private deck providing the perfect spot for alfresco dining, or simply just sit back and enjoy lakeside life! Upstairs there is a large master bedroom with a 5' bed and full length window overlooking the lake, allowing you the same stunning views. There are two further twin/double bedrooms with 5' zip and link beds and a family bathroom. Extra care has been taken for families, and you will find lots of special touches around the house if you are planning on taking the little ones.

The light bright interiors with family-friendly luxuries are added bonuses, whilst the fact that there’s a golf course, water sports centre, bike hire and routes, plus a choice of restaurants and pubs, within a short, scenic walk really sets it apart. Although, for most young families, the fact that the UK’s largest inland beach with a purpose built toddler paddling and playground area is within a 10-15 minute stroll is the icing on the cake.

Weekend Stay for Six Adults
We had a fabulous stay at this beautiful location, much helped by the weather. The Lodge was clean, easy to find and in a great location - close to all the Lakes with an excellent Lakeside Bar a few doors away. Food here was amazing as was the atmosphere. We enjoyed sitting on the decking and watching the water sports activity along with using the spot to explore and of course get on the water. The lodge whilst spotlessly clean is one of the older looking properties. Many neighbouring properties appeared to have been refurbished, whilst on the decking here some wood clearly needed replacing. The steps into and out of the property require some maintenance - we had to tread carefully after one of the party fell entering the lodge. The only other thing was that we were unable to find an iron, we found an ironing board but no iron.

A great place for a long weekend stay
A great well-equipped lodge in an idyllic setting. It’s useful to have a good bar/ restaurant on the same site.
