Within walking distance of Somerford keynes,this B&B is located on a private lake with swans and other water fowl, catch and release fishing. The hosts, Steve and Viv make you very welcome. Breakfast in the breakfast room over looking the lake in the morning is a great start to the day. Rooms are spacious and nicely appointed. We do not... More

Just got back from a break at Willow Pool. What a wonderful time we had. The weather was brilliant, though it would have been equally good even without it. Very peaceful with fantastic views over the lake. The kingfishers were a delight and we saw a pair of them everyday - they even sat just a few feet away from... More

We hadn't realised what a treat we were in for when we arrived at this B&B, on the first stage of walking the Thames Path. The view from our room overlooking the lake is fabulous. Unfortunately it was raining so we didn't go on the guided walk around the 32 acres and two lakes of which the garden consists but... More

The friendly welcome from Viv & Stephen, with tea/coffee, in the breakfast room (the only common area) allows you to gasp at their fabulous view, which is exactly as in the picture on their website. There are no other buildings in view, only the large pool with trees lining its banks, and the gorgeous waterlilies. The owners know their property... More

This was our 3rd stay, but with a difference this time as it was a special birthday surprise for my husband - a booking he didn't know about. Viv & Steve weren't doing B&B the week we booked, but we were fortunate enough to have been able to have the studio apartment over the garage - brilliant. I organised for... More

We have stayed at Willow Pool now at least forty times and that should give you some idea of what my husband and I think about the place and the owners. From the minute we first walked through the door seven years ago we were made to feel at home. Nothing is too much trouble for either Viv or Steve... More

I stayed at the Willow pool with my wife for one day and it was such a wonderful experience. The best thing about this B&B is that everyone and everything is so friendly. The hosts Vivienne and Richard made sure our stay was pleasent. Their pets were very friendly as well. They have a cat, a dog, a swan and... More

We found this delightful B&B quite by accident while searching the internet. It is located in the Cotswald Water Park, a series of small lakes (formerly gravel pits) in the Cotswolds. Fortunately, the only available room was an apartment over the garage away from the main house. There was a full kitchen, which enabled us to cook a few meals.... More
