Excellent place to stay, photos do not do it justice as the property has been upgraded since and it is really spacious. Plenty of watersports, fishing, eating and drinking opportunities, along with some peace and quiet and Cotwolds charm.
Excellent property with hottub.
Great location, lots to do.
Owners incredibly helpful and friendly

Family break.
The accommodation was exactly as described and lived up to our high expectations. The owners met us on arrival and made us feel welcome. The hot tub was great for the kids especially in the rain! We would not hesitate to recommend this property to our family and friends.
This is a beautiful property which is really well located for a family holiday in the UK. A very quiet location for younger kids to ride bikes, play tennis, football and in the play park. Rosemarie is a lovely host with great knowledge of the area and keen to help. The description and pictures are perfect for the property. I wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Extremely comfortable
The property entirely lived up to our expectations for a relaxed holiday stay. The spacious, extremely comfortable lounge and dining area were perfect for us. The kitchen is well equipped for self catering, and the Lodge benefits from two comfortable bedrooms and two bathrooms and downstairs cloakroom. The attractive location on Windrush Lake was ideal for walks in and around the water park and a trip into Cheltenham. We would certainly recommend the property to friends and relatives. It was very helpful that the owners met us at the beginning and end of our stay.
Lovely property, in the perfect location. Well equipped with everything we needed. It was a very enjoyable family Christmas away. Would very much like to come back in the summer. Thoroughly recommended :)
We had a super time at Windrush. Really nice location for three nights away with plenty of activities for the family right on your doorstep or within a 10 minutes drive.
Sehr schönes, gemütliches Ferienhaus, sehr nette Vermieter.
Schönes und liebevoll eingerichtetes Ferienhaus direkt am See, sehr gepflegte Ferienhausanlage, viele Wassersportmöglichkeiten in der Nähe. Die Vermieter sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Wir kommen immer gern wieder.

Ideal retreat for exploring the Cotswolds
We stayed at Lodge 5 Windrush Lake to celebrate my husbands 60th birthday. We had a wonderful weeked, the owners Rosemarie & Martin were there to meet and welcome us. The lodge had everything, it was so homely and comfortable. We were fortunate to have some wonderful weather and used the BBQ on two evenings after exploring the surrounding area and villages, and relaxed in the evenings in the lovely hot tub. If we return to the Cotswolds we will definitely be booking Lodge 5 again and highly recommend, we were three couples but the lodge is suitably equipped for a family Sept 2015

A holiday which could not have been better!
What a superb choice for a surprise 60th birthday trip for my husband. Right through from the original booking the owner (Rosemarie) was so very helpful and cupcakes and a bottle of bubbly for the birthday boy on arrival was much appreciated. The lodge is beautifully furnished on all three floors using top quality fixtures and fittings. It has everything you need for your holiday stay and was particularly well kitted out for my 11 month old granddaughter.
There was plenty to do in the area for the active amongst our group whilst others enjoyed chilling out in the wonderful hot tub even in the rain (complete with thunder and lightning)!
We became so relaxed that we began to feel the lodge was our second home and did not want to leave.
I am sure we will be making a return visit.

Outstanding!
We were after a relaxing break in the Cotswolds and 5 Windrush Lodge exceeded our expectations. From being greeted personally by the owner Rosemary (a lovely lady) with freshly baked cup cakes to the spacious lodge that had everything we wanted. Everything worked well from the hot tub to wifi and sky hd. We couldn't fault a thing. There's as much or as little to do as you wish in the surrounding area and if you're into walking, cycling or water sports / sailing, you just can't go wrong.
We'll definitely be back!!!
