Beautiful Scenery & Gentle Pursuits at Isis Lake

The New England style lakeside holiday cottages on Isis lake are positioned around three natural, reed edged lakes, located within the Cotswold Lakes (previously known as the Cotswold Water Park).

Isis Lake and it’s neighbour Windrush is a family friendly, pet friendly, holiday park that offers large green open spaces, exceptionally well manicured gardens, and a wide selection of activities onsite or very close by. The New England charm and the Cotswold setting offers a fine British holiday with a dash of American style.

Excellent Holiday at Fountains View - 4.5*

The property was excellent, it had everything we needed and was in a beautiful location beside the lake. It was great having a secure decking area for our dog and plenty of grounds to walk around. We used the tennis courts several times and used our SUPs and kayak on Windrush lake which was an easy walk from the property with our kit. The property had everything we needed for cooking and all rooms were clean and comfortable. A great property overall.

Fabulous Stay at the Lakes

First time at the lakes and will definitely be returning. Fab location. Orion staff really helpful when we realised we hadn’t packed our own life jackets for use on lake with own equipment. Site is well looked after and clean. Walking routes to other areas and lakes. Would recommend a stay here for anyone who hasn’t been.

An Amazing Lodge - 5*

What can we say? We have stayed at Isis lake for at least 15 times and this must be the best lodge we’ve stayed in. Fantastic location, super clean and everything you could need for a break/holiday.

Lovely House and Area - 5*

This is a lovely house with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It was really clean and well stocked. The views across the lake are gorgeous and there were good paths around the site.

We used the table tennis table, pool tables and tennis courts – there was a nice looking playground for younger visitors. Had to ring Orion help line once during the stay and go the answer I needed quickly which was great.

A Great Family Destination - 5*

This was a family gathering of eight for a special birthday. The location was perfect on a beautiful lake with plenty of wildlife to enjoy and a cuckoo calling in the background.
The accommodation worked perfectly and had everything we needed for our stay including games, boules and tennis racquets. There were plenty of local activities and a good choice of places to eat and a large Tesco was only a short drive away. We are already planning our next visit.

Perfect Wind Down - 4.5*

Incredible views, fabulous accommodation an amazing place to unwind I would live there tomorrow. The grounds are immaculate, there are lots of activities on your doorstep and plenty of dining options in the area. It’s the perfect place to be with your loved ones long walks with your dog then a tipple or two on the decking, we really loved it

A Lovely Stay - 5*

Absolutely spot on all round. A lovely house in an ideal and peaceful spot on Isis lake. It’s clean, airy and has a lovely terrace to sit on overlooking the lake. A short walk to the playground, tennis courts and short cut to South Cerney… It has all the amenities you need plus fast wifi. TV is a little basic so would recommend taking a firestick to access Netflix/Amazon etc if you need that – but otherwise a really great stay.

We would wholly recommend and most likely to book again in the near future.
