Windrush Turret Lodge at Cotswold Lakes is designed with families in mind. From flexible bed layout configurations and baby kit to on-site activities and safe outdoor space, it’s an easy, relaxing base for your next family break.
Flexible Space for Up to 6
Whether you’re bringing grandparents, teens or toddlers, the lodge layout makes it simple:
- Sleeps up to 6 across 3 bedrooms
- Zip & link beds in two bedrooms – choose king-size doubles or twins
- Third bedroom can be twin or a king-size double with a mattress topper
- Two bathrooms (including master en-suite) plus a downstairs WC
Tell us your preferred bed setup before you arrive and we’ll have everything made up and ready.
Baby & Toddler Friendly
Packing for little ones can be a job in itself, so we provide a range of helpful extras:
- Cots and highchairs
- Stair gates and bed guards
- Step stool and loo seat
- Steriliser and plastic plates, bowls and cutlery
- Toys, books and family games
There’s space for cots in the bedrooms, and having a separate downstairs WC makes life easier with young children.
Relaxed Open-Plan Living
The ground floor is all about spending time together. The open-plan living and dining area has:
- Two large leather sofas and two armchairs
- A glass dining table for up to six
- A media wall with 55″ TV, Sky Stream, Netflix and surround sound
- Books, DVDs and board games for rainy days
Superfast Gigaclear Wi-Fi keeps everyone connected – ideal for streaming, homework or a family movie night.
Safe Outdoor Space & Private Hot Tub
Step through the patio doors onto your enclosed, furnished decking with:
- Outdoor dining table and chairs for six
- Comfy bean bags
- Gas BBQ for easy family meals
- Private, not-overlooked hot tub for parents to unwind once the kids are in bed
Beyond the decking is a grassy area leading down to the lake, perfect for a kickabout or watching the wildlife together. Children should be supervised near the water, but the enclosed deck gives you a secure spot for little ones to play.
On-Site Fun Without Getting in the Car
Staying on the secure, gated Isis & Windrush Lakes development means there’s plenty to do just a short stroll from the lodge:
- Children’s adventure playground and outdoor play area
- Three all-weather tennis courts (one floodlit)
- Football goals, croquet lawn, boule area and golf practice net
- Indoor games room with pool table and table football
- On-site fishing on the lakes (free for guests)
- Canoeing and kayaking on Windrush Lake if you bring your own equipment
It’s easy to break the day into manageable chunks for younger children – a play in the park, back to the lodge for lunch, then a game of tennis or a family walk by the water.
Easy Family Breaks in the Cotswolds
With South Cerney’s pubs, takeaways and small shops nearby, plus Cirencester and the wider Cotswolds within easy reach, you can mix simple family days at the lodge with trips out to explore.
If you’re looking for a comfortable, well-equipped base that genuinely works for families, Windrush Turret Lodge is a relaxed, practical choice – with plenty to keep everyone happy, whatever the weather.
