Luxury holiday homes with pools in Gloucestershire
There's little better than floating in blue waters under a hot sun, braving a wee hours wade or a twilight plunge; from indoor jungles to walled-in gardens, dive into our luxury holiday homes with pools in Gloucestershire.
Armed with a flamboyant swimsuit and all of the necessary ingredients to mix up a hedonistic cocktail hour, you're all set to escape the feverish heat of the city this summer and head towards a private home with the most important feature of all: a swimming pool. As the children float past on inflatables, you can sit back with a good book and let the world dissolve behind well-thumbed pages. These luxury holiday homes with pools in Gloucestershire are the ultimate in family-friendly breaks that feel more like private spa retreats in the country.
You needn’t travel past the British Isles for sunrise swims and moonlit paddles; our collection of homes with swimming pools and hot tubs includes both Cotswold farmhouses and Georgian manors (and there’s no rules against skinny dipping in sight). Think waterside sundowners overlooking the Bisley countryside and pre-coffee morning laps while the dogs run alongside. Pools aren't just for summer; on cool autumn mornings, there's nothing like tiptoeing downstairs and sinking into the waters of an indoor pool as the sun rises over the hills.
