This is a lovely hotel. It's well placed for a visit to the Cotswolds. There is a large car park, check in was easy and our room was so nice, overlooking the lake. Breakfast was good, a self service buffet with lots of options. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. We've stayed here several times and it never disappoints!

I’m not sure what to call the “room” we were given. Room feels generous. It was more like a makeshift hideout tucked into the eaves of the building — cramped, dark, and honestly comparable to a prison cell… though to be fair, most cells probably get more natural light. Things went further downhill at dinner. I ordered a vegetarian meal and was served a dish containing more chicken breast than a Nando’s family platter. We complained, they whisked it away, and proudly returned with a “fresh” vegetarian dish — except they’d literally just picked the chicken out and forgotten a bit. Cue round two of “spot the bird.” After pointing it out again, the plate mysteriously reappeared minus the final piece of chicken. Magical. This was, without question, the worst experience we’ve ever had at a De Vere hotel. And the saddest part? This was our fifth visit. We used to love this place. But after the prison loft and the chicken salad that refused to die, it’s safe to say this will likely be our last.

Lovely rooms, great food and the best bar staff at the function we were at. Jack (John) was great, good fun and told us about the wines available. He was super helpful with some other bits and bobs, an absolute credit to De Vere Cotswold Water Park hotel. Thanks so much Jack!

Well well well, the De Vere. A hotel so scenic it felt like I was walking through Middle-Earth on the hunt for a flat white. Rolling hills, whispering trees, and my cocker spaniel leading the charge like Aragorn with a tennis ball. Genuinely stunning — the kind of place you could propose marriage, bury a body, or both depending on how brunch goes. The grounds were biblical. If you told me God himself had done the landscaping I’d believe you. My dog was in his element, sniffing every leaf like it had been scented with royal jelly. I half expected woodland creatures to burst into song and form a choir around us. It was like taking the hobbits to Isengard, except the hobbits were middle-class dog owners and the only thing getting destroyed was a ham and cheese panini. The hotel itself? Cracking. Comfy beds, nice bar, the odd whiff of faded grandeur. Like a posh aunt who drinks before noon and once had a fling with a minor royal. But let’s get into the meat and bones, shall we? Sunday afternoon at the bar — enter stage left: Miserable Man in the Blazer. This guy took our drinks order with all the enthusiasm of a slug with a hangover. Grunted at us like a warthog sniffing for apples under a log, barely made eye contact, and shuffled off like he was being forced at gunpoint to serve the general public. He looked managerial too, the sort of bloke who probably has “People Skills” on his LinkedIn, but in reality has all the charisma of a burnt crumpet.
