Malachite

Summary:

Malachite Lodge hosts incredible south-facing views of the lake. Start your morning with a long bath overlooking the water, and let the rest of the house find their way to the comfortable living area. The decking is enclosed, so feel free to let your dog explore. There’s plenty of seating outside when you’re ready to join them, so you can also make the most of that lakeside panorama.



The Space:

Malachite Lodge sleeps up to eight guests across four bedrooms, with three and a half bathrooms and a master suite featuring a private balcony. The downstairs living space is open-plan and recently refurbished, with floor-to-ceiling windows that look directly over the lake. The layout is designed for family groups who want space to spread out without drifting too far from each other.



Guest Access:

You’ll have full use of the lodge, the enclosed lakefront decking, the private hot tub, the outdoor dining area and the BBQ. The decking has direct access to the lake, and private parking is right outside the property.



Check in from 3PM and check out by 10AM.



You can arrive at your own pace with self check-in via key box, just give us a call if you have any issues.



The Neighborhood:

Set within the beautiful Cotswold Lakes, you’re surrounded by over 180 lakes, woodland trails and quiet village lanes. The landscape feels open, green and peaceful in every direction. It's the perfect space to be active and explore, ideal for cycling, paddle-boarding, or just walking and enjoying the abundant wildlife and fresh air.



South Cerney is only a few minutes away and is one of the area’s most established villages. Think traditional stone cottages, small, friendly shops, lovely pubs and delightful cafés. Tree-lined lanes and village greens all lead directly towards scenic lakeside routes, so nature’s nearby even when you’re shopping.



Cirencester is about 10-15 minutes by car and offers boutique shopping, restaurants, markets, and a rich sense of history. Kemble Station is also close, with direct trains into London, making this spot practical for quick weekend visits as well as longer stays.



Getting Around:

• Parking available at the property

• 7 miles to Kemble Station, with direct trains from London

• Local buses from the end of the lane to Cirencester and Swindon



Other Things to Note:

The house is pet friendly. Two well-behaved dogs are welcome (£30 per dog). A travel cot and high chair are provided. Paddleboard hire is available on request, and decoration services can be arranged for special occasions.



Quiet hours run from 10:30PM to 8AM, and we ask guests to respect the peaceful setting: No parties, and no smoking indoors.



Interaction with Guests:

Everybody finds peace in a different way, and that’s how it should be. From the moment you book, you decide the pace, and we’ll be there to help you plan, and create moments that really matter. It’s that little extra layer of support we offer to make sure everything runs smoothly. Thoughtful service, that never gets in the way of a good moment.



Whether that means a slow morning with a fresh pot of tea and a long soak, or a day out exploring neighbourhoods and nature - we’ll guide you, so it all unfolds just the way you’ve pictured it.
