Vacation rentals in River Cherwell

We really enjoyed our stay - the flat was spotless, tastefully furnished and in a great location. The check‑in process was smooth and the host was responsive throughout. My only small gripe was the rigidity around check‑in and check‑out times. Check‑in wasn’t available until 4 PM, and check‑out strictly at 10 AM (with a hefty £35 fee to arrive earlier). Our cleaner arrived at 10:15 AM, which felt a little tight. If the host could offer even a 30‑minute buffer on either end, it would make arrivals and departures much more relaxed. Overall, highly recommended - just be aware of the fixed times!

The perfect location to enjoy some peace and tranquility in the countryside. The house also benefits from being right on the lake with a private jetty where you can use all the kayaks and paddle-boards provided. In the surrounding areas there are some beautiful walks where you can explore the nearby areas. The local village in South Cerney is within walking distance which has some convenience stores. It is also very close to drive to some bigger supermarkets for anything else needed. Inside the house, everything is pristine and decor is to a very high standard. The kitchen and dining area was a great open space with room for all of us to be in without feeling cramped. We found a lovely welcome basket included by the hosts and there are all the amenities you would need in the kitchen. The layout of the house was perfect and the ratio of bathrooms to bedrooms was great, even for a group of girls! Overall we had a fabulous trip and the hosts were always on hand to provide recommendations.

Lovely stay with 6 adults and 2 infants. Great set up for kids and very nice main room and decking area. Hot tub, BBQ, kayak and right next to a lovely lake. What more do you want!? Only slight draw back is you can hear the road but didn't bother us at all.

Stunning location! I visited here with my husband and two young children and it was perfect for a little family getaway. The weather was definitely on our side too! The lake was so peaceful, we loved everything about the accommodation. We visited Bourton-on-the-water, Chichester Park, Cotswold Country Farm and more. We will definitely be returning!

A lovely house which is very close to the centre of Bourton with plenty of parking.

What a stunning location for pure peace and quiet. The retreat is an oasis! The place itself was incredible and the hosts were both responsive and helpful. This is the second time I have stayed in one of Mike & Adina’s places and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. The property itself has been finished to a high standard and was so clean. The BBQ and hot tub were both easy to use. I absolutely loved it, thank you!!!!

The house is beautiful, well equipped and spotless, and the setting right next to the lake is absolutely amazing. Hannah was very responsive, friendly, helpful and accommodating. We hope to return in the future :)

Ally & Simon are incredibly great & helpful hosts. Their accommodation is absolutely spot on, clean & modern. Beautiful garden and the whole house. Definitely recommend staying there, very close to the town centre, great location. Parking spot in front of the house. We will be definitely coming back. Thank you for having us & the support on marathon. Definitely people that they care about their guests & their place.

Superior 3 bedroom lakeside Lodge with everything you could wish for. Everything was fantastic plus gorgeous weather which enhanced our experience. A peaceful and beautiful accommodation to stay in and loveky outside balcony overlooking a lovely small lake with all sorts of wildlife. Thoroughly enjoyed. X
