Pass the Keys | Minety Lake lodge | hot tub | games room

My home is a wonderful family-oriented lodge, situated on exclusive Minety Lake, part of the Lower Mill Estate, within the Cotswolds Lakes.

The lodge, set across three floors, comfortably sleeps 10, with 1 super-king bed, 2 king size beds, 4 single beds and an additional sofa bed available on request. There is a private hot tub overlooking the lake, games room incl pool table and air-con in the south facing rooms.

There is free access to the Lower Mill Estate pool and other facilities.

Set in idyllic tranquil surroundings on Minety Lake, my home is a perfect base for groups of family or friends looking for a relaxing and luxurious holiday.

Whether you are taking in the breath-taking south facing lake views, unwinding in the private hot tub, or paddle boarding on the lake, the lodge provides the perfect setting to create wonderful memories.

Property layout:
Entering the property you will be greeted by a wonderfully designed open plan home with natural light streaming down from the three floor high windows and stunning wall to wall glass patio doors at the rear of the lodge.

The stylish, top of the range kitchen has everything you would look for including large fridge / freezer, induction hob, double oven, microwave, dishwasher, Ninja air-fryer, Nespresso coffee machine and breakfast bar, with high stools.

Heading beyond the kitchen into the dining area, there is an impressive large oak table, which can accommodate up to ten guests, perfect for some evening socialising!

Adjacent is the spacious living area, with plenty of comfy seating, large Smart TV & sound bar, and modern wood burner. Views overlook the outside decking and Minety Lake beyond.

The decking area has a private hot tub, gas BBQ and plenty of seating, perfect for a relaxed family evening meal as the sun begins to set! There are two paddle boards available for guest use, which can be launched from the Lodge’s jetty.

Back in the lodge and heading upstairs there is the wonderfully spacious master bedroom, with superking sized bed, complete with air-con, Smart TV and large ensuite. The balcony has seating for two and provides stunning views across Minety Lake. Great way to start the day!

Moving across the first floor there are two good sized king sized bedrooms, both with built in ceiling fans, one with en-suite. The first floor is completed with the family bathroom.

Continuing upstairs to the top floor there is a large bedroom with four single beds (very kid friendly!), Smart TV and a further family shower-room.

The top floor also boasts the games room, family fun for adults and children alike! The games room features a 6 foot pool table, games console, mini bar, Sonos speaker and large Smart TV. The room overlooks the Lake and has air-con installed.

All bedrooms have built in wardrobes offering plenty of storage space and beds come with hotel quality crisp cotton sheets, fluffy towels for each guest and complementary toiletries.

The ground floor also has a separate utility room with washing machine, tumble dryer, 6 ft tall fridge and additional sink.
