Considering booking a stay at Cornerstone Cottage? Please do contact us with any questions.
Our house is a cosy, yet spacious, family-owned contemporary cottage on the private Lower Mill Estate nature reserve in the Cotswolds Water Park.
Tranquil location in secluded water garden away from the busiest parts of Lower Mill Estate, and yet only a short walk from the exclusive spa (included for all our rental guests) & other facilities. Miles of beautiful walks from the front door and a big selection of local sporting, sightseeing and relaxing activities. A favourite is the 15 minute walk to our local pub, The Bakers Arms.
We have owned our holiday home since 2003, specifying the house to be our own rural ‘home away from home’. Now we are delighted to invite you to share the experience and make your own memories.
Many guests have come back again & again, often booking long in advance.
Large sofas to relax by the log fire in winter, or to watch TV. Well-equipped kitchen, and dining area. Games and books for children. Wifi internet.
Large sundeck overlooking peaceful reeded pond, with sun from early morning til evening.

The £6m ArtSpa (approx. 500m walk) has indoor/outdoor pools, sauna, steam room and treatment rooms. Artspa also offers a wide range of spa treatments using 100% natural plant-extract Pevonia products.
There are also playground areas, trampolines, football area, table-tennis & tennis courts.
Ballihoo restaurant is approx. 500m from our holiday, open most of the year. Small shop & café open peak hours, approx 100m walk - good range of grocery items, good coffee & tea, patisserie and light lunches.
