The Boat House offers three bedrooms. Bedroom one is situated on the first floor with it's own large en-suite bathroom, and boasts views of the lake from its own private balcony where you can soak up the morning sun and enjoy a cup of coffee. Bedroom's two and three are situated on the second floor and provide the perfect place to relax after a day on the lake. These two bedrooms share the family bathroom.

Beautiful setting with access to a private lake made our stay peaceful and relaxing, and our children loved having use of the lake. We were able to spend five days recharging with no need to drive anywhere.

We had an amazing few days at the Boathouse. Fab location, amazing facilities. A family of 6 adults had such fun on the water, the punt, kayaks/paddleboards , croquet and hot tub were just great in the sun. So private and peaceful Highly recommended.
