About

Nestled in the heart of the Cotswolds, De Vere Cotswold Water Park is a contemporary lakeside retreat where 180 crystal‑clear lakes, lush woodlands and rolling hills converge. The resort blends modern design with traditional Cotswold stone, creating light‑filled rooms and suites that overlook the water. When the festive season arrives, the property comes alive with a host of Christmas‑themed events and party packages – from Santa‑themed afternoon tea to glamorous New Year’s Eve celebrations that are now booking open for 2025. The holiday apartments, whether studio, one‑ or two‑bedroom, offer guests a festive home away from home, with en‑suite bedrooms, a fully‑equipped kitchenette, and private balconies that frame the lake’s tranquil scenery. Prices start at £119 per night for a minimum of two nights, with a special four‑night offer from 14th to 27th December at just £99 per night. Even during the holiday season, the resort’s dining venues remain a highlight – the Old Boathouse serves a celebratory Christmas lunch, while the Brasserie and Lounge & Bar provide contemporary lakeside dining with seasonal menus. A full‑size spa, Spa6, offers sauna, indoor pool and a variety of treatments, and the evening schedule is rounded out by live music, theatre, and a range of family‑friendly activities. With free ultra‑fast Wi‑Fi, a well‑equipped gym, and close proximity to the many lakes and walking trails of the Cotswold Lakes, De Vere Cotswold Water Park is the perfect base for couples, families, and nature lovers looking to unwind, explore, and celebrate in a strikingly beautiful setting.
