Squirrels Leap was very well equipped.

Squirrels Leap was very well equipped. They have catered for children very well and had everything you needed to be able to occupy a family on rainy days. It is a home from home with lovely views of the lake.The sofas in the main area of the room were really low for us as we are a tall family.Unusually the beds were super comfy too.One comment which is not the owners fault is the mention of an outside heated pool. The pool outside most definitely was not heated and the inside pool was cool. We had a 9 month old baby with us and the pool was too cold for her to stay in for very long but apart from that its a good base to explore the area

We had a great winter stay in Squirrels Leap with our two young daughters. Very spacious four bedroom house. Very well equipped including a great play room and lots of toys for young kids. The village is good with both indoor pool and heated outdoor pool. Good base to explore the Cotswolds from. Beds could be more comfortable but they are not the worst.

We have just returned from a wonderful weekend at Lower Estate and the house was immaculate and very spacious overlooking the lake the ducks did offer some entertainment too! I would highly recommend the house and I would love to return. Squirrels Leap is fully stocked with everything and anything you need there are beautiful walks and lots to do or just sit back and relax and enjoy the views.

This is an excellent property with a truly beautiful view.

This is an excellent property with a truly beautiful view. We had a wonderful week. The kitchen is well stocked (perhaps slightly too stocked), everything that you need at the house, easy to find with lots to do within a local drive. The walks/cycle rides around the estate are lovely. The outside playground area where you could have drinks/pizza/ice cream was great. It was a pain having to book swimming pools (pandemic related). But the pools themselves were brilliant. We didn’t take advantage of the activities on the lake, but these looked great too. Some minor cleaning issues, but nothing that wasn’t easy to sort out.

House beautiful, so comfortable and plenty of room for family.

House beautiful, so comfortable and plenty of room for family. There was 8 adults in my group and kitchen had plenty of crockery and utensils. Bedrooms very nice and comfortable. The views across lake fantastic and to be able to sit outside on the very large veranda Only thing I was not impressed with was the so called shop. it was so small and hardly anything there so take your essentials with you, on Sunday morning shop almost empty of items and no bread. Would thoroughly recommend The Wheatsheaf Inn in Oaksey for a meal, very friendly and my granddaughter is a vegan and they checked beforehand what she liked and the chef did her a lovely meal. it was nice to be able to have breakfast out on the veranda and also to launch canoes, paddle boards from there.

We had the most wonderful stay at Squirrels Leap celebrating my husbands surprise 70th birthday. Property was lovely and the countryside spectacular as were the sunsets and the sunrises. Would highly recommend. My only thought was there was almost too much in all the cupboards and wardrobes meaning you would have to search for what you were looking for. Our whole experience from booking to coming home has been highly professional and most enjoyable. Thank you.

We all loved the house and have never stayed anywhere that had such a well equipped kitchen.

We all loved the house and have never stayed anywhere that had such a well equipped kitchen. The play area within the house was also a big hit with the children and has a large selection of toys, games and books. The location is beautiful and we all enjoyed exploring the area. The family made use of the swimming pool, outside play area and restaurant. There was something for everyone whose ages ranged from one to sixty.
