2 Bedroom Cabin in Ampney Crucis, Cotswold Water Park

As you approach Iris Lodge, overlooking the tranquil Lake Pochard in the heart of the Cotswold Water Park, you'll feel as if you've stepped into your very own lakeside retreat. This exclusive, gated area is home to a handful of lodges and private fishing spots. Only residents of Lake Pochard can fish on this lake, making this the ultimate getaway for seasoned anglers. If fishing isn't your thing, you can enjoy a moment of quiet reflection by the water's edge or spend your time exploring all the Cotswolds Water Park has to offer. Just a short stroll away, you will find The Waterside Restaurant, offering delicious pan-Asian inspired food right on your doorstep. Rich wildlife, scenic trails, lakeside restaurants and hidden corners of natural beauty.
Blending Scandinavian charm with curated elegance, this immaculate lodge has been thoughtfully decorated to an exceptional standard. Inside, a soothing, neutral palette of colours with gentle pops of vibrant accents create a serene and inviting atmosphere that perfectly complements the lodge's lakeside setting. The open plan kitchen, dining, and living area is calm and inviting, where glass doors frame the lovely view of Lake Pochard. Here, you can sit and relax in front of the wood burner, filling the room with chatter and making special memories. A veranda offers the ideal spot to relax and take notice of the abundance of wildlife and sip your morning coffee to the sound of birdsong. Two bedrooms and a bright bathroom await and offer the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring, fishing, walking and cycling around the Cotswold Water Park.
There is direct access to the lake from the private veranda of Iris Lodge, and spacious green area shared with the other lodges, but with plenty of space to relax in your own little slice of nature. Breathe in the fresh Cotswold air and take in the rich wildlife, scenic trails and hidden corners that surround you.
Ground Floor
Living area:
The bright and welcoming open plan living-kitchen-dining area is the perfect place to dine and relax. In the winter, cosy up in front of the wood burner and cheers with a glass of something special. Play board games and laugh the night away or curl up on the comfortable sofa with a good book. In the summer, open the doors to the veranda and look out over the glorious lake, letting the sunlight beam into the lodge.
Kitchen/Dining area:
The kitchen area also overlooks the lake and surrounding grounds, and you may even spot the roaming geese and swans whilst making your cup of tea. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to whip up a feast after a day of exploring with an oven and hob, microwave, dishwasher and fridge with a separate freezer. Dine in the kitchen or prepare meals that can be taken out and enjoyed on the veranda on sunny days.
Bathroom:
The bathroom is easily accessed from the living/dining area and is spacious with a walk-in shower, WC and sink.
Bedroom One:
The master bedroom is a peaceful escape. The sun dances through the trees outside, and its warmth adds a gentle glow to the room. Little splashes of yellow are woven throughout the room, and the wooden floors are rich with the charm of nature, and rattan accents in the interiors bring an earthy, rustic feel. There is a double bed, two bedside tables with lamps and drawers for storage.
Bedroom Two:
The twin bedroom feels both cosy and bright, a perfect of rustic charm and tranquil warmth. Two single beds invite relaxation, with pops of yellow soft furnishings brightening the room. There is a large wardrobe in honey-toned wood with ample storage space.
Outside
The veranda is a perfect mix of outdoor charm and cosy shelter, offering a spectacular spot to unwind no matter the weather. With wooden flooring that complements the rustic-scandi style lodge, it's a place that invites you to relax and soak in the peaceful surroundings. Accessed through open doors from the living area, the veranda effortlessly extends the home's sense of openness, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. From here, the view of the lake is undoubtedly beautiful. There is a table and chairs with enough seating for four, and a BBQ ready for grilling, perfect for an evening with family and friends. The atmosphere is calm and the ideal spot for long, lazy afternoons or dinner under the stars.

Summary: The location of these Lodges is excellent. Very tranquil and peaceful, the lake is lovely with swans and cygnets floating about. There were a great number of Canada geese and their goslings wandering about, but they don't interfere with the guests. The Lodge itself, Number 12, could do with a bit of an update, especially the appliances, fridge in particular which was leaky and old. The outside of the Lodge could do with a coat of varnish and really could do with a path in front of the porch and round the side, like most of the other Lodges have as the geese make a bit of a mess and you have to avoid taking it into the Lodge on your shoes! The furnishings inside are comfortable, the bathroom is great with a lovely big shower and the beds are comfortable. All in all we had a lovely stay and would definitely consider going back. We didn't go for the fishing, just a nice rest and we certainly got that.
