LAKES LIFE
YOUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME
The Lakes by YOO began as a vision shared between property developer John Hitchcox and celebrated designer Philippe Starck to create a modern retreat in the Cotswolds.
Since then, their vision has come to life as a sustainable, secluded and secure estate with interior design-led homes that look out onto breathtaking views of the lakes. A place for families, friends or colleagues to get together to experience an exclusive, fulfilling lifestyle and reconnect with the great outdoors.
Whether you’re looking for a waterfront or woodland space for a staycation, the perfect backdrop to bring together your team to connect and recalibrate or a place to call home, we’ve got it covered.
Activities
We have a fantastic line-up of fun-filled activities, from paddle boarding on the lakes to exploring the treetops on the zipwire or high ropes. Dive into our range of indoor and outdoor activities, classes and events, designed for the whole family to enjoy.
Spa & Wellness
The Spa by YOO is home to a 17-metre heated pool with views of Marley Lake and plenty of zen facilities, including a sauna, steam room, gym and fitness. Indulge in longevity treatments, take part in exercise classes or book an overnight wellness retreat.
