Vacation rentals with lake access in Berkshire

Truly wonderful stay - my parents and daughter travelled from Australia to spend Christmas with me and we decided to go to the Cotswolds (along with my dog). I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Tracey’s home had everything we needed, set amongst a beautiful, tranquil surrounding nestled on the lake. Picturesque views and relaxing surroundings. The house itself is beautifully presented - lots of lovely little touches and thoughtful additions. It was so easy to get around from the house to all different parts of the Cotswolds - perfect place to come back to after a days worth of outings. Nice hot shower and comfy couch and amenities. Restaurants and pubs close by within an easy four to six minute drive - dogs welcome! Thank you for a wonderful stay. It truly made our Christmas.

We had a fantastic stay at Nicola’s house, which was perfect for three families coming together. The on-site pool was a great addition, and the Ballihoo restaurant was both welcoming and convenient ideal for everything from a morning coffee to an evening meal. The house was spotlessly clean, with three excellent bathrooms plus a downstairs toilet, making it ideal for a group stay. We would love to return in the summer to fully enjoy the surroundings, but even in the colder months, the cosy wood fire made it a wonderful retreat.

Had a lovely New Years break. House was clean and comfortable. Close to local attractions and amenities in the Cotswolds would thoroughly recommend.

Amazing property. Beautiful views form the balcony of the lake. Everything we needed and more was in the property.

Couldn’t recommend more. We had a great stay! Hosts were very communicative and proactive from the beginning and made our stay very enjoyable. The house was gorgeous, well prepared and we felt right at home.

We had the most fantastic time - the lodge was clean, beautifully furnished and cosy on a cold March evening with the wood burner - loved the record player with the albums - The little touches such as biscuits, coffee and croissants were appreciated as were the refillable bottles of hand wash, shampoo etc. You can immediately tell that the owners have put a lot of hard work and love into their property. My friends and I were together for our 50th birthday celebrations and downtime from our hectic lives and we couldn’t have picked a more idyllic spot. Beautiful walks, fabulous scenery and such a calm quiet place. An ideal location to explore the coast and also the local high street with pubs and restaurants is an easy walk - the hot tub was an absolute added bonus. All communication from the hosts was spot on - Thank you and we will be back again.

We had a lovely Easter break in this house with our family (8 adults). The weather was perfect so we enjoyed playing tennis and paddle boarding on site and walked to the pub in the village.

Booked this accommodation for a family wedding near Cirencester. We thought it looked great on the listing but it looks even better when you arrive. The surroundings are beautiful. The lodge itself was extremely clean with all the facilities you could need at a very reasonable price. We only stayed for 2 nights but wished we could have been there for longer. Highly recommended and a big thanks to Di xx

Mary's place is in great location with few minutes walk to DLR station. Surroundings looks quiet and peaceful with nice eateries and supermarket within 10 min walk. The heater was not working periodically and it took us few attempts with Mary to resolve the issue. But Mary was very nice and sent someone to check too.

George's appartment was even bigger than expected, well equipped and perfectly clean. The location of the flat and the view over the Thames are fantastic. Geroge is also the perfect host: quick, pleasant communication and always helpful. The apartment is very good value for money and I can recommend it without reservation. Many thanks for everything!

A fantastic little gem of a hideaway for a couple of nights near Witney. Only good things to say about Terry and Elaine’s property. Very close to LIDL for supplies and Witney for restaurants, with a secure garden for the dog and an excellent walk just around the corner. We were here for a couple of days to take part in a sailing event at Farmoor Reservoir and it proved to be the perfect location for us. Very friendly neighbouring pub even had vegan food for us. A shame the most direct route to the reservoir meant we had to go via the toll bridge at Swinford but we soon got over having to fork out 5p each way…🙂

Kappa is one of the bests hosts I’ve dealt with on AirBnb. The apartment is beautiful and in a fantastic location just steps from the Cloud Sky transport. We especially enjoyed having our morning tea on the patio. The bed is very comfortable and the blackout curtains make for a peaceful sleeping space. We enjoyed it so much, we booked again for our return trip.

Great stay in a lovely part of London. The flat was lovely and relaxing. Miranda is a great host, helpful and quick to respond to messages

Great communication and lovely apartment to stay. Would definitely recommend

Two years after our last stay in Binsey, we were very happy to return for another week. It was a very nice welcome, we had lovely conversations with Alison and Steve. Binsey is unique, quite, excellent if you need time to write or read. Rent a bike for journeys to Jerchio, the city center, colleges or the University hospital. We can highly recommend this place and hope to return in the near future.

Wonderful apartment in the amazing lower mill estate. The perfect get away for our family Brilliant host with great communication A really great stay

Our second stay at April Cottage, this time with our puppy. It’s a lovely location and a super cottage, very well maintained and spotlessly presented.

Jo and her husband have a beautiful cottage and gardens. Perfect for a few days away trying out some of the local pubs and walking in Ashdown Forest. They are great hosts and the cottage has everything you could need. Our son particularly loved walking around the fields and seeing the frogspawn in the pond! Would definitely recommend

Wonderful house, location and hosts!

Janey was the perfect host. We arrived a little early and she very flexibly let us check-in, despite having to prepare everything herself as her cleaner was not available. We also arrived a little unprepared and on a Sunday but Janey had left all the essentials we needed to tide us over including a delicious homemade cake, croissants for breakfast the following morning, milk, butter and eggs. The setting is lovely overlooking a very large pond with a lot of visiting geese and ducks. There are little boats and life jackets for children. This is an ideal spot for a family holiday with the fossil beach at Kerridge Bay only an hour away by car and a number of lovely walks on Iron Age hill forts very close by, as well as lovely villages and National Trust properties. We would highly recommend Janey's property for a relaxing, comfortable and homely holiday. I am sure we will be back.

Super helpful host. Immaculately clean, well presented and fully stocked home. Wonderful location in centre of Milford on Sea: 5 mins from the beach and 2 mins walk from a dozen or so great cafes and restaurants. A great stay. Thank you

What an amazing find. We have just returned from a fabulous stay with our children, at Chris and Alexandra’s gorgeous cottage - the photos don’t do it justice. So much to do and the most stunning views - there really is something for everyone. We didn’t want to leave. Chris and Alexandra were excellent hosts - helpful, friendly and responsive. We definitely will be returning.

Caroline's cottage was so peaceful and beautiful, set in a gorgeous setting. Caroline provided groceries for a cooked breakfast as well as croissants, which was a great touch and saved us the issue of finding local shops etc. It was lovely waking up to bird song. We loved the way Caroline's ducks came to greet us as we set off each day. Thank you Caroline for responding to any enquiries so swiftly too. Your cottage was so cosy and comfortable.

Great location for a vacation with family and having a 6 months old everything for baby was available on the house. Warm welcome with clean, tidy and house with a pristine lake view. Also lovely complimentary card, chocolates and Prosecco which we very much enjoyed it. Kim would respond to my messages on time which was very helpful. Good food at the restaurant near by would definitely come back again.
