Vacation rentals with lake access in Cherwell District

Absolutely loved our few days away! Can’t believe we didn’t know about this place before… so much to do for an active family. Great house with everything we needed (so helpful to have little things like sugar/washing up liquid etc so we didn’t have to bring everything with us!). Will definitely return!

We had a lovely stay at the cottage. The house was really lovely and well equipped for 3 families all staying together. The Estate was lovely and the facilities great, although you meed to remember to book things like the Spa we'll in advance and the pool and pizza. I wouldn't hesitate to return.

We had a wonderful time. The place is lovely and much nicer and bigger than the photos in my opinion. The host was really responsive and helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a trip with friends or family. Kitchen has more than enough glasses/pots/pans etc which was really helpful when cooking a meal for 6. Lovely space and I will be back :-)

Really lovely stay. Beautiful views across the lake. Spacious property and well planned and stocked! Would absolutely go back.

Excellent accommodation - felt great to be there ! Di was pro-active in advising about the fishing pass, which enabled John to fish in the lake and catch 2 trout- wonderful for him ! The rest of party really enjoyed the house - real quality and great feel good factor. Everything we needed in the kitchen. Also, fab environment with lots to do. Wonderful walk along the canal towpath and back by Lake 6 and then on Easter Sunday a tasty and friendly cooked breakfast at the Gateway Cafe. All our expectations exceeded !!

Lovely place right on the water. Looks better than the photos. Had everything we needed in a great location with access to pool and with onsite restaurant and little shop. Perfect for a get away would come again

Beautiful place to stay, very helpful information folder of the area. You could walk or drive to restaurants/bar. If the weather had been better we would have explored the lakes more. But we got out and about . Very clean and tidy place and everything inside that you could possibly want. We would definitely stay again . Thanks Frannie x

The property has beautiful views over the lake and we could see loads of different water birds. The view was even better than the photos suggested. The property was spacious, clean and very comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped and has an excellent coffee machine. This would be perfect for an extended family group or 2 families sharing. There was lots of storage and places for shoes and coats. The onsite restaurant Balihoo was excellent especially if you are coeliac. There was also a pizza shack that my kids said was great. Clare was a proactive host and the property is run by Orion holidays who sent plenty of communication and information. We will definitely visit again.

Not a bad word to say about it. Clear instructions on how to check in. They had milk in the fridge waiting for us with biscuits in the tin and everything we could need in the kitchen. Lovely spot if you’re wanting to visit the Cotswolds, and the Bell Inn next door was a lovely pub and really friendly locals. Really loved staying here and felt like a home away from home.

Everything went very well. The flat is comfortable, especially the living room upstairs! We had a great time. Edward was very kind and it was easy to communicate.

This apartment is in an excellent location in Oxford. Everything can be reached on foot. We were there for the May Morning celebrations and could access everything easily. The flat is well equipped despite being small. There was quite a lot of noise from traffic at night. We enjoyed our stay. Oxford in May sunshine is hard to beat!

This is the perfect home from home when I visit Maidenhead to see my Mum. I appreciate the fact that it is in such a quiet leafy spot, yet easily walkable to the river and Boulter's Lock as well as the town centre. The room feels spacious, calm, well cared for and has everything you need. Thanks for a warm welcome and a pleasant stay.

Two years after our last stay in Binsey, we were very happy to return for another week. It was a very nice welcome, we had lovely conversations with Alison and Steve. Binsey is unique, quite, excellent if you need time to write or read. Rent a bike for journeys to Jerchio, the city center, colleges or the University hospital. We can highly recommend this place and hope to return in the near future.

We had a fantastic stay at Glyme Flat. The location was perfect for what we wanted as we were exploring the Cotswolds. The Flat itself was super clean and tidy with everything that you needed and was in a very quiet location. The information pack was very detailed and would definitely recommend watching the video of how to find the flat as it came in very handy when we lost signal from the main entrance. Would definitely look to stay here again in the future.

Jane was an excellent host and responded to my enquiries before booking and whilst we were there. The apartment is bright and airy with a perfect balcony where you can watch the sun go down whilst listening to the birds. The spa on site is great, outdoor pool is a little fresh! You need to book a slot in advance in busy periods but Jane will send you all the details you need. We had a really relaxing stay and would stay again.

We booked to stay at The Hide for an event at Halton which was very nearby. We had a lovely meal in Wendover before arriving. Lovely spacious room which was well equipped, comfortable and beautifully decorated. Hosts communicated clearly and were very friendly. Enjoyable stay!

We had a wonderful stay at Aston House in the beautiful Lower Mill Estate. We were a group of 8 adults, 2 children, and a dog, and the house fitted us all comfortably with plenty of space to relax and unwind after busy days exploring. The living areas were perfect for chilling out and watching TV together. The location was ideal too – just a 30-minute walk along the Thames Path to The White Hart, which was a great bonus. The hosts were extremely responsive and provided clear, helpful instructions throughout. Highly recommend!

The pictures really don’t do the cottage justice, the grounds are absolutely beautiful. I’d definitely recommend taking Jane’s advice and visiting Arrow Mill, and it’s well worth making the short 10-minute drive to Hiller’s Farm Shop. Jane was also incredibly kind and supportive during an unexpected emergency that caused us to leave a night early. She’s a truly caring and attentive host. We had a lovely stay and would happily return!

What a delightful stay I’ve just had at The Stable. Wonderful farm surroundings. Very peaceful and secure. Rita was an amazing host and the Cottage was extremely clean and comfortable and I wanted for nothing :-)

Sarah’s place is in lovely surroundings looking out over one of the lakes. We had a lovely relaxing stay and Sarah responded very quickly to our questions. The local brasserie is really reasonable and very nice food. Would recommend!

We booked the cottage as a base whilst visiting a couple of Merlin attractions. We are so glad we did, from the moment we arrived, we relaxed. The garden is beautiful, and area so peaceful. We all slept so well. In hindsight we wished we had booked more than one night.

Great place to stay, we took day trips to Salisbury, Cheltenham and Bath. All were within easy reach. Such a peaceful and relaxing place to stay. Homely & well-equipped. Note that to use the indoor pool you have to ring them or walk over at 10:30 in the morning to book a 1 hour slot for the next day. Would definitely recommend staying here. We are looking forward to coming back.

We loved our stay here. The cottage had everything we needed & opening the back door onto the orchard was lovely. The kids enjoyed the outdoor space & the swimming pool & tennis courts were a big hit! Thanks for having us!

Jason was the perfect host. Great communication and the house was just great with all the touches of making sure our stay was as perfect as possible. It’s such a great base for being able to enjoy the surroundings. Our kids had the best time being able to use the estates facilities all as part of our stay at the cottage. Would definitely recommend.
