Fitness-friendly holiday rentals in Gloucestershire

I stayed with a group of friends for the weekend and we very much enjoyed our stay at Kathy's. Gorgeous property, excellent decor, stunning view and nicely walkable to everywhere we wanted to go. There were thoughtful extra touches provided by the host – and me and my friends love to cook, so we were very grateful for the well-provisioned kitchen and set of sharp knives. It was our first time in Stroud and we loved it!

Vicky and Jake were there to meet us and were very helpful with instructions on how to use heating and appliances within the apartment, we got good helpful advice on the local area and were made very welcome. Lots of little extras to help us feel at home and it was an extremely comfortable place to come back to and relax after a long day at the races or on the tourist trail. We would definitely consider using the apartment again in future visits to Cheltenham.

A cosy contained flat sitting about an absolutely stunning valley, overlooking a wood beyond. Holly's flat was absolutely perfect for what I wanted - an away from it all, peaceful location where I could study and write. I love nature and I was surrounded by deer, incredible birdsong, red kites, pheasants and so much more. I was lucky to be here for the bluebells and also the golden fields of rapeseed. Ideal location for anyone who likes hill walking, hiking and / or is doing the Cotswold Way. It takes less than 10 mins to drive into Cheltenham, but this place is truly an oasis of calm and serenity. A 6-min drive to the nearest large supermarket, so that was handy. The furniture etc might be a tad dated but, honestly, the price reflects that fact and, frankly, I loved that this wasn't a show home, but rather a well-loved country place. Holly was wonderful to interact with. I recommend this flat in the heart of the Cotswolds. The bed is super comfy too!

Great place, Zoe very comminciative. Only tiny thing that would make it easier, which is about habitat escapes, not the property, is better signage / maps would make the intital check in and finding of house a bit easier, but I am tooigraphically challenegd, so it might just be me. Otherwise ten out of ten for what Zoe offers. Thank you.

Linden is an absolute treasure. Nothing was too much trouble. He gave us lots of knowledge of the surrounding area and took great care of us. He is very highly recommended as a fantastic host. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. Jill and I would like to thank Linden and will definately see him again.

Lovely clean place on a lovely site. There was a thoughtful little hamper of some food and milk and a treat box for our dog when we arrived which was a nice touch! Wish we had stayed longer, the pool and cafe were great! The terrace was massive with lots of chairs on and we’d love to come in the warmer months!

Lovely stay at Willow Warbler. The estate is beautiful & maintained to a high standard. Very peaceful. The apartment had everything we needed including extra touches like milk, travel cot, washing machine & dishwasher tablets, plenty of cooking equipment, tea bags, oil for cooking etc. There is a nice restaurant & pool on site. We didn’t use the gym as the opening hours weren’t early enough (10-5 so we were out for the day). We travelled with a 9 month old but there looked to be lots of things for older children such as soft play, water sports & play ground. Lots of bird watching to be done. Jane was very good at communicating with us & checking everything was ok. We used the apartment as a base to go out for the day such as to Oxford & Bourton but the apartment is very comfortable if you prefer chilling. Would recommend if you are looking for a quiet relaxed break.

What a wonderful lovely little gem. My family of 6 had a wonderful stay at Harry’s place. We loved the nature reserve, onsite playground and spa facilities. My children loved the swimming pool and we will definitely be back. The apartment was clean, tidy and lots of amenities. The property was a little tricky to find in the dark but once we had been out and back in again we had no problems. The signage could do with being brighter or reflective so it is easier to see in the dark. Despite this we loved this place. Great location to other near by villages and towns. Thank you Harry and lower mill estate. ⭐️

joe's place was fabulous, most beautiful village I've ever seen, beautiful walks all about. the place it's self feels so homely and comfortable. will definitely be back again, book if you get the chance

We had a few days away with family and the 2 small Grandchildren. The Grandson loved seeing the birds and water skiing. The Heron was a regular visitor. Wendy was extremely quick helpful in resolving an issue. We loved the location and the house itself and we would book again. A tip would be if you are using the cot, then remember to pack a sheet. I had packed these but its something you might forget.

All previous reviews indicated a top class house in every respect and I can only reiterate those views. If I could have given a 6 star rating I would have done so. All generations (grandparents, parents and children) thoroughly enjoyed using all of the facilities provided from cooking, eating and drinking to the outside play area, the pool and the gym. Further the location was most agreeable, in easy reach of lots of beautiful countryside and interesting places to visit in South Gloucestershire. Helen-Louise’s communications were responsive, clear and most helpful. The perfect host!

My family are spread around the country so we wanted a central place with great facilities and things to do locally The accommodation was excellent and the facilities made sure we were entertained all the time Great bedrooms and bathroom, great kitchen, great games room Would go again thank you to the hosts

This place was spacious, modern, clean, and very well equipped for 5 adults and several babies requiring high chairs and plastic spoons and beakers. Lots of cutlery and crockery too - no washing up before you could sit down to thd next meal, which I've known in other place. There was a huge fridge and a big freezer; the appliances were clean, new and easy to use. Lovely linen and comfy beds. Nicola was speedy in her responses and allowed us an earlier check-in and later check out which was massively helpful we had a lovely stay and would certainly consider returning. Thank you Nicola

Great house with plenty of added extras, particularly the kayaks with access to lakes

Had an amazing time, fantastic facilities and estate. Host was easy to contact, helpful, and the property was clean and so welcoming. Will be visiting again

Lovely stay in the Cotswolds at this cool house by a lake. Fun stuff to do locally even in a rainy Feb half term. Kids felt safe and really enjoyed it. Special mention to Suus our host who was so helpful and super responsive. Recommended!
