Property Information
Ducklings is a property that simply oozes relaxation! Set on the highly desirable Clearwater Estate and enjoying the benefits of the magnificent Artspa, this large and spacious house is a superb choice for families and groups alike. Furnished and styled in a cool, modernist fashion, the home has been created with one eye firmly on the wider environment. Natural light is everywhere, the muted decor is deeply restful, and with so many open glazed areas, the internal spaces simply feel vast! We really like this property - it gives a lovely and welcoming sense when you're inside.

Local Information
The Lower Mill Estate is a 450 acre private nature reserve, located in the heart of the Cotswold Water Park. Not to be confused with water slides or fun park, the Water Park is in fact a nature lover's paradise, including two Sites of Special Scientific Interest, with thousands of wildlife species all living in harmony with this very attractive part of Gloucestershire.
As a guest, you are free to enjoy the whole Estate at your leisure. Many people comment that Lower Mill often feels like a time warp back to days when children can run about freely and safely (with the resepct of water of course). You may want to enjoy a peaceful walk around one of the beautiful lakes, fish, and bird watch from one of the hides or sail on one of the lakes. Artspa offers indoor, outdoor (heated) and eco pools, as well as a state of the art gymnasium and an exceptional selection of spa treatments. A small farm shop is situated in Mill Village, offering all of the essentials.
