Perfectly positioned in-between bustling Oxford and the scenic Cotswolds, you’ll discover The Island in Oxfordshire a beautiful holiday home situated on a pretty lake.
Just hop on board one of two motorboats provided (your nominated captains must be over 25 and hold a valid car drivers license) and take the two-minute journey across to the island – a glorious way to mark the beginning of a holiday! And if you wish to venture out and explore the local area, Hardwick Parks, Hardwick Watersports and Waterside Therapy Room & Linear Fisheries are all nearby.
Once on The Island you’ll find an array of delights that include an Arctic spa hot tub, a barbecue and pizza oven, a table tennis table, a youngsters play area, and the quirky ‘Wonky’ Bar!
Accommodating up to 22 guests, this is an ideal setting for a fun and relaxed break with much-loved friends and family, without anyone having to miss out including your well-behaved pets!
Choose from 8 bedrooms, cosy doubles or twin rooms, and a wondrous ‘dorm’-style room for big and little kids alike featuring sleeping for 8, your scene is set for an epic giggly sleepover!
Once you’ve bagged your favourite room and poured yourself a drink what will be next? Hang out all together in the large, laid-back dining space, or in front of the welcoming open fire. Indulge your competitive spirits at the pool table or Xbox or sit back on the deck and watch the water-skiers whizzing past on the lake… your choice!
Since you’re in an area with no light pollution, you can also expect to catch sight of the most awe-inspiring sunsets, not to mention a blanket of softly-twinkling stars. And if you can get up early enough, greeting the sunrise with a freshly-brewed coffee is sure to be a memorable holiday highlight.
What to do with the rest of the day? If you’ve been feeling inspired, you can arrange water-skiing lessons with the park, or fish directly from the island. If you’re in the mood for a little extra indulgence, you could even treat yourselves to exclusive use of the salon at the neighbouring Waterside Therapy Rooms.
There’s plenty of scope to explore further afield, too. The dreaming spires of Oxford are a mere 11 miles away, and the Cotswolds 10 miles… just choose your favourite direction, and you’re away.
However you choose to spend your time at this unique retreat, we’re willing to bet a highlight will include coming together in the ‘Wonky’ Bar as evening descends, toasting your amazingly good holiday fortune by another blazing sunset!
