The yellow and green accents around the living area lend a Jamaican vibe to this lakeside home, where you can enjoy days of relaxing vistas to bring tranquillity to your stay, creating the appearance of being suspended over the water's edge. The patio is the showstopper, with a dining space for alfresco eating at all hours of the day and a hot tub for a refreshing plunge. Make lunch in the kitchen, with Spotify playing in the background for a little dance, while the kids play board games. If you want to go exploring, take a twenty-minute drive to Fosse Way and bike along the gravelled trails, appreciating the landscape as you go, or travel to The Butts Rare Farm Breeds to feed the baby lambs and brush the donkeys for a fun family day out, stopping off at the tea room for an afternoon lunch. Take to the water with your friends and family at South Cerney Outdoor for a three-hour play and paddle where you can splash about kayaking, canoeing, and paddleboarding.
