About this property
Set in very pretty water gardens with decking standing over the water, Hazel House offers spacious modern accommodation for up to six adults and four children. Hazel House has the added benefit of a fabulous roof top terrace where guests can enjoy alfresco dining and stunning views across this wonderful estate. The estate is prestigious, luxurious and beautiful. It offers much entertainment within its hundreds of acres of lush greenspace.
Just ten of the estate’s holiday homes are situated in the Water Garden so it is peaceful as well as being very attractive. The ground floor of Hazel House boasts stunning, open plan contemporary living at its best. With two walls almost fully comprised of floor-to-ceiling bi-fold doors, the living space is bright and beautiful. A gorgeous U-shaped sumptuous sofa arrangement takes pride of place for relaxation and to enjoy both the gorgeous views and the modern log burner. The trendy dining table and chairs can accommodate the whole group for dinner and the immaculate kitchen will delight the chef. This is such a social space, the chef will be very much of the party when preparing meals. The smart contemporary kitchen boasts gorgeous granite work surfaces, two ovens, an induction hob and other top-notch appliances including a Krups Nespresso coffee machine. The quality bi-fold doors open to a splendid ground floor deck which floats over the water. It is the perfect spot for your morning cup of coffee or a pre-dinner drink. The ground floor also boasts a cloakroom which is home to a washing machine and dryer as well as a delightful snug with a sofa, television and games.
The first floor is home to the marvelous master bedroom suite with its kingsize bed, glorious ensuite shower room and a private balcony offering stunning views. All of the bathrooms in this wonderful holiday home feature fantastic tiles with lovely textures or striking blends. There is another double bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and private balcony as well as a twin and a children’s bunk room. The children’s room offers two sets of bespoke bunk beds which are not full size so are not comfortable for adults. However, children will be in heaven hoping for midnight chatter and probably midnight feasts! The outstanding family bathroom boasts a bath with shower attachment as well as a separate shower cubicle.
One major advantage of Hazel House is the excellent roof terrace. It offers alfresco dining under a pergola, a barbecue and another area with astroturf, perfect for sunbathing or reading your holiday book.
Hazel House enjoys its wonderful water garden position on this first class development in the Cotswolds. Guests enjoy the hundreds of acres of lush greenspace, brimming with lakes, rivers, stunning picnic spots, woodland and miles of beautiful hiking and biking trails as well as a massive variety of activities and facilities. The ‘resort’ style amenities and activities include an award-winning luxury spa with steam room, sauna and three swimming pools including a bracing eco-pool naturally filtered by water lilies, a library, a ‘restful reading’ lounge, tennis courts, a children’s playground, restaurant, shop, a Technogym, watersports tuition, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, boating, yoga, waterside exercise classes and children’s clubs during peak holiday seasons.
Hazel House enjoys a very special water garden location within a gated resort in the heart of the Cotswolds. Just south of Cirencester, guests enjoy many entertainment options within the development as well as being located on the doorstep of fabulous Cotswolds attractions. Villages and towns such as Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold, Tetbury, Cirencester, Malmesbury and Lacock are all close by and the regency pleasures of Cheltenham and the Georgian glories of Bath are less than twenty miles away.
Bourton-on-the-Water, like most of the Cotswolds, lies in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is the Venice of the Cotswolds with beautiful bridges crossing the River Windrush. Gorgeous cosy cafes line the pretty streets together with houses made with enchanting honey coloured Cotswold stone.
Stow-on-the-Wold is a delightful market town, the highest of the Cotswold towns exposed on the 800 feet high Stow Hill at the crossroads with the Roman Fosse Way. The town boasts a fascinating history. At the height of the Cotswold wool industry, it held annual fairs where as many as 20000 sheep were sold at one time. The Market Square is very attractive with its ancient cross, town stocks and an elegant array of Cotswold town houses and shops. You will find many fine antique shops, art galleries, gift and craft shops.
Tetbury is another historic wool town. It is an architectural gem with many of the wool merchant’s houses remaining the same as they were in the 16th and 17th centuries. The Parish Church of St Mary’s has one of the tallest and most elegant spires in the UK. Tetbury is popular for its independent shops including antique shops, vintage and interior shops, exclusive boutiques and the Highgrove shop. Tetbury holds many regular events including the May Day Wacky Races, the Spring Bank Holiday Woolsack Races when contestants carry 65lb woolsacks up and down the 1 in 4 hill, the August Summer Show, the September Food and Drink Festival, the October Tetbury Music Festival and the Christmas Lights Switch-on.
Close by, visitors can enjoy the stunning botanical experience of the National Arboretum at Westonbirt, the glorious Elizabethan Chavenage House used for many famous films and TV series, the beautiful Arts and Crafts Manor at Rodmarton, the 13th century Lacock Abbey and HRH Prince of Wales’ stunning garden at Highgrove. Local equestrian events such as the Badminton Horse Trials, Gatcombe Festival of British Eventing and Beaufort Polo are all popular.
