We had a perfect weekend at this gorgeous lake house. It was so peaceful. Sitting in the hot tub with lake views was a real treat. The beds were super comfortable, the house had everything you needed and communication with owners throughout was excellent. I would definitely go back and stay for longer!

Short stay

We had a great short stay at the Mallard, it’s a great location and very relaxing. Everything we needed was there and readily available, the only thing we didn’t have there was more time! We left fully energised and we will definitely be looking to come back soon.

A great luxury home from home

The mallard is in an ideal location, tucked away in the Cotswolds and a relaxing place to get away too. The house is stunning and fitted out with all the mod cons you expect The hot tub is a proper one and is lovely. The team are great and well informed. They do not impose but are on hand if you need them, there is plenty of space and privacy for 3 couple or a big family, an en-suite in every room is a big plus!

Second time to visit

This is our second visit to a lake-side stay at the Cotswold Water Park. As in the first visit, we enjoyed our stay immensely. The water birds are gorgeous and the lake is peaceful. It comes with a fancy Nespresso Venturo coffee machine: bring extra pods if you are keen coffee addicts as they are not yet available in the local supermarkets! Though Amazon does a mean next day delivery :)

Fantastic multi generation stay !

We recently stayed in Watersedge - a beautiful lodge suited to those holidaying with someone with poor mobility issues - the downstairs bedroom with wet room was a godsend ! Fantastic lodge - well equipped and a beautiful location ! The only down side was that the access to the water was by launching yourself from the decking into lake- no ladder / steps which made it difficult ( but not impossible) for the older members of our family to access ! That’s said it didn’t stop us and a great time was had by all ! Will definitely recommend Watersedge and would go back again !

Wonderful

Booked Mallard Lodge with my two Sisters in Law after a recent Bereavement and feeling the need for a change of four walls! It was perfect. The Lodge is beautifully and luxuriously equipped and gave us every comfort necessary for a wonderful three days.The setting spectacular and serene , the hot tub ( all prepared and ready for action) added another level to our relaxation, Would recommend to anyone who wants relaxation, loves wildlife and wants a spot to allow them to explore our beautiful Cotswolds. Thank you Cotswold water Park and we will be back. Best regards, Penny

A nice cozy place to chill

We checked in late in the evening and it was raining, the surroundings were dark and not well-lit enough to locate our unit. We took some time to locate the unit. When we got to our unit, the cabin was very petty and cozy welcoming my family. However, the thermoset took a long time to warm up, we wish that a better system to use. The cabin size is great for our family of six. There are enough beds for the six of us and an ensuite for each room. However, there is a cut of time for the hot water and once your water tank is used up at night, there may not be hot water for a warm shower at night. overall, it is a nice resort to relax with family and friends.

perfect retreat

Our family recently had the pleasure of staying at Mallard lodge on the lake, and it was an absolutely perfect holiday retreat. From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the unique and interesting interior design. Every corner of the lodge had something beautiful to look at, showcasing a delightful blend of art and nature-inspired decor. The lodge is incredibly spacious, with many rooms and bathrooms that comfortably accommodated our large family. We especially appreciated the ground floor bedroom, which was perfect for my elderly parents, providing them easy access and comfort throughout our stay. One of our favorite spots was the porch, offering a stunning view of the lake. It quickly became our go-to place for barbecues and relaxation, adding to the fun and enjoyment of our vacation. The boat ride offered by the lodge was nothing short of dreamlike, allowing us to fully immerse in the serene beauty of the lake. Cooking was a breeze in the fully prepared kitchen, which came equipped with all the necessary cutlery, pots, and pans. Additionally, the laundry and ironing room was a convenient feature that made our stay even more comfortable. Every member of our family, from young adults to old parents, had a fantastic time. The lodge provided everything we needed for a memorable and relaxing holiday. We highly recommend this lodge for anyone looking to enjoy a by the lake.
