Moorhens is a picture-perfect thatched cottage in a quieter area of the Lower Mill Estate alongside Somerford Lagoon. With a host of on-site facilities on your doorstep there is no place better to spend your next Cotswold holiday.
The cottage is warm and inviting as you step into the open plan sitting and dining room. The wooden flooring, exposed beams and wood burning stove within a stone surround create a homely atmosphere. If you fancy a change from eating out at one of the many nearby options, family meals can be served at the dining table. In the evening, relax after a busy day with your feet up in front of the fire and your favourite programme on the smart TV. The country-style kitchen has a Rangemaster oven and hob and all the mod-cons you could possibly need. Three bedrooms, two of which are en-suite, ensure you all have your own space and won't be on top of each other when you're racing out the door in the morning for your next adventure.
Stepping out the front door you are greeted with lake views and breakfasts can be taken out onto the terrace. Sitting at the picnic bench you look across the Thames Mill Race, one of the only working watermills on the River Thames. There is one designated parking space and additional parking is available in the overflow car parks on site. With all the fantastic facilities that the Lower Mill Estate has to offer you are sure to have a spectacular holiday. You may find you need to return to tick everything off your list.

Cosy cottage
Nice traditional cottage in Mill Village. Good location in the village near to the lakes and cottage is larger than it looks especially upstairs. Good communication in advance and throughout

Lovely stay
Lovely stay at this thatched Cotswold cottage on the Mill View Estate. Plenty of room for a family of four. Nice time paddle boarding and kayaking. Staff on the site were very friendly. Good communication from owners prior to stay. Some of the decor is a bit dated.

June stay for 3 nights
Lovely cottage in beautiful surroundings, with every amenity you could need. We stayed with our two year old son who loved the ducks, chickens wandering the estate not to mention the two playgrounds! It wasnt warm enough for the pool but there is so much other stuff to do - we rented biked and visited the other nearby Cotswold attractions.
This is a great place, dont hesitate to book it!

Ery pretty cottage in a serene setting
The cottage is very pretty. But is a little tired, the bathrooms and kitchen could do with a revamp. The property is a little snug for 6 adults but would be fine for a family with children .
The kitchen was quite small but fairly well equipped although there were a few items missing that we could have done with.
The rug and sofas need a clean, try as we might we could not get rid of the smell of wet dogs! The ceiling fans in the 2nd bedroom and dining area weren't working which was a shame as it was so hot during our stay.
Overall we had a wonderful, very hot holiday. The atmosphere in the site is wonderfully calming and all the other visitors were very friendly as were the staff. Nice restaurant on site,Laine our server was such a lovely young lady.
Fabulous warm swimming pool to use, which was heaven!
Communication with the owners was excellent, nothing was too much trouble for them, they were very accommodating and helpful. Sorry to leave some negative feedback.

Gorgeous stay in the Corswolds
Moorhen was outstanding we took a family break (5 of us) in July. The estate is breath taking and we are definitely going to return! There is so much to love. The estate, the area is a good base to explore Cotswolds we ventured to Blenheim Palace, Blockley, Bourton-on-Water, of course Cirencester visited the wildlife park just an area of stunning endless beauty. The cottage was perfect and if I had to be uber critical the only feedback I could give was the parking for the property, people weren't so conscious about leaving room for others to park in the bays so we did have to park in the visitors towards the end of our week luckily there were spaces as earlier over the weekend we struggled to park our 2nd vehicle after returning from a food shop run. But otherwise there were plenty of visitor spaces for us. The cottage is divine the only feedback would be the sofas weren't very comfy and as we spent our days out exploring it's nice to be able to relax in the evening. The estate is beautiful but I didn't realise you couldn't 'walk' around them as properties are built on the water front so access is really only if you want to kayak or paddle board. We did find one lake we could access just outside the estate and enjoyed a beautiful evening walk around
