Lovely cottage on beautiful estate

We were a group of 7 staying (4 adults, 3 children) for 3 nights. The cottage had everything we could need. There are 2 bedrooms perfectly set up for kids with the other 2 for adults. The bathrooms were decent and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need and more, although some cupboard space to store our food would have been nice.The outdoor dining space was very peaceful and pretty although a little overlooked. The estate is beautiful and the cottage is very close to the activity hub, spa, pool, tennis courts, playgrounds and restaurant. Table tennis and tennis equipment hire was very cheap but be quick to book the tennis courts as by the time we went to book they were fully booked for the week! A couple of pointers for others staying on the estate: - The spa is wonderful! Two of us went for a head massage which was reasonably priced and very relaxing - highly recommend! - The pool is fantastic. It was the highlight of the trip for our kids. - The restaurant / bar has good quality food & drinks but we found the service to be painfully slow. We went for lunch when we arrived, there were only 2 other tables eating and we waited over half an hour for each course. Make sure you book if you want to have dinner there. We’d recommend The Bakers Arms pub, a 15 min walk away. Great food, great service and there’s a pizza oven in the garden. - We found that the on site shop was severely lacking in basics so make sure to bring everything with you!

wonderful house, great location.

Cornerstone is a great holiday venue - endless activities (swimming, boating, tennis, cycling, table tennis ..), yet in very peaceful and beautiful surroundings. The house is great and works well for 2 families. Excellent communication and help from the owners - we had a problem with the oven and a new one was installed the same day! We will definitely be back again. Many thanks to Tim & Vanessa.

Good stay

. The house is charming and well-equipped - good bathrooms and showers - but we didn’t really feel it was suitable for eight adults - four adults and four children max. Bike and canoe hire v pricey! Good stay but we felt very overlooked and crammed in. The impression given was of lots of space but the estate is very developed. Spa and pools excellent

A lovely property in an idyllic Cotswolds location

Whilst Cornerstone is not one of the more luxurious properties on the lower mill estate, what it lacks in ostentatiousness it makes up for in homeliness. The owners are clearly very warm, generous people and it always feels like you are staying in their home. Cornerstone cottage doesn’t feel like a faceless business but friends letting you rent their place. Cosy, practical and very clean we’ve been back a number of times as it suits the needs of two families with kids perfectly and has the facilities we need in a holiday home along with some surprise extras which are the icing on the cake. Thank you so much Tim and Vanessa we love our regular visits to Cornerstone.

Location, Location, Location and wonderful property.

Thank you Tim and Vanessa!!!! After a lazy Christmas, our new year stay at Cornerstone was the perfect start to 2019. The property really is set up to make the most of your stay and the surrounding area is beautiful. Avid Geocache explorers we found 25 caches during our stay. If the children had any steam left, we used the football pitch and tennis courts. (If you want to use the 4G pitch - don’t forget to book in advance.) When the parents needed to recuperate the spa was a stone throw away and/or just throw a few logs on the fire and get cosy! All in all, 2 families of 4 (2 adults and 2 children) had a wonderful refreshing time. Would we go back.... absolutely!

Book this place now! Wonderful Stay!!

My family of 4 adults stayed here. It did not disappoint! Tim & Victoria are perfect hosts and the communication is great. They provide a lot of useful info to plan and stay at their home.. even have an app & book. Although they tried very hard to explain where to park to drop off our things, we failed...but it's ok. Once you found the home, it was easy after that. They left many goodies to enjoy. Thank you! Their kitchen is well-stocked and has a Nespresso machine with a milk frother. I loved the frother so much I just bought one for our home. They provided many coffee capsules to start you off. I haven't used a Nespresso machine before but after googling it I was on my way! The electrical outlets have on/off switches so if the appliance isn't working check to make sure the switch is on. The wifi was great. There are only clipper outlets in the bathroom so I used the outlet in the bunkbed room in front of the mirror for drying & curling my hair. We used the dishwasher, washer/dryer with no problems (Soap goes in the double bar section of washer). We ate at the Ballihoo restaurant our first night..yummy. They have a small store there to pick up food supplies. Had a massage & facial at the spa..so relaxing. Enjoyed the Half Day Rally Experience @ Cotswold Driving Experiences..so fun! 10-course dinner with Dine Indulge at their home..worth it! We rented an electric car, charging station only a few min away and FREE. It is so beautiful there..highly recommmend!

Lovely cottage in a family-friendly estate

Lower Mill estate is great for families - lots of activities and space to run around! The cottage is well equipped - sadly not as great a view as some of the other properties at Lower Mill, but in a charming corner nevertheless. The owners are very proactive with communication and very responsive to requests.

Cotswolds experience with the Girls

The property was in a lovely location, convenient and easy to access all the facilities which were great! From Cycling to swimming, paddle boarding , picnicking, as well as a lovely private chef experience in the property. The property was bit smaller than seen in the pics, we did expect only one bunk bed room , but there was two, but probably we did not read the info correctly, the hosts and owners were fantastic!
