Willow | Glass Lake Retreat with Hot Tub for Two

Summary:
Willow is your front-row seat to stillness. A glass-fronted lodge on a private lake, it’s designed for two, with a hot tub, wood burner, kayaks and a sun deck that hovers over the water. Wake up slowly, swim freely, and end the day fireside as the light slips behind the trees. With wild trails, total privacy and everything taken care of, Willow is where luxury meets real peace.

The Neighborhood:
Little Horseshoe Lake is a private gated retreat with just five homes on two tranquil lakes. You’re in South Cerney, surrounded by peaceful nature but only a short drive from the independent charm of Cirencester and the 180+ lakes that make up the Cotswold Lakes.
