I am interested in finding a holiday there but it seems abit confusing as to which part of the park would be the best to stay in. My dh has cancer so would not want to be too far away from facilites, pool etc. Can anyone advise please?

Hi triplets,
I have stayed there twice on a family holiday. We booked through watermark holidays. The lodge we stayed in was lovely. Across the road is the four pillars hotel and you can use their pool. It was the windrush lake that we stayed next to. There is a small children's play area on the site. You definitely need a car to explore the water park though, we had days out to the various Cotswold villages and the Cotswold country park.

when are you thinking of going, triplets?

\link{http://www.holidaylettings.co.uk/rentals/cirencester/175520\Osprey Lodge is on the Lower Mill Estate}

that's in the water park, but it's a gated estate & has the Art Spa - its own swimming pool, tennis court etc

no school holiday availability this year, though

when we went we stayed in \link{http://www.bookcottages.com/cottages/100-NJH-tischler-house.htm\Tischler House}, also on Lower Mill but it has its own pool, pool house, hot tub & table tennis

they're not cheap though - \link{http://www.holidaylettings.co.uk/rentals/cirencester/130729\this is one of the smaller ones} & it's just over £1000. Nice location though (& is on Lower Mill with the Art Spa)

\link{http://www.holiday-rentals.co.uk/p489166\this is on Isis Lake, £827}

you contact the owner direct, so you could ask about how far it is from facilities

\link{http://www.holidaylettings.co.uk/rentals/cirencester/140006\£794 for a lodge} (seems like a lot for what it is)

Oh thank you Ponders I have e-mailed several of them, fingers x`d!

Hi please help me! Hi

I am trying to find a hotel to go to next week for me, husband, 5 and 7 year olds and newborn!

I have booked four pillars water park., what is the splash pool like? I am tossing up between that and the ickworth or foxhills in Surrey. Is the hotel enough to keep us entertained for two days without going out

I could maybe make it to the beach area in car? I need to make a decision today and am tearing my hair out, please can someone advise! X?

Ihave just had a c section and cant walk anywhere! so just want somewhere I can sit still and chill whilst the kids are occupied in the hotel grounds - I dont want to travel too far so needs to be in the south east - I need to book it today - PLease help!!!

I have stayed at the four pillars Cotswolds hotel. It is a good, modern hotel. The pool is nice , you could probably get an hour in there before everyone has had enough. You would definitely need to go out as apart from meals and swimming I can't remember doing anything at the hotel. We had a 2 bedroom suite and that worked well. We took the DC to Cotswolds country park and a few villages.
