The Alehouse Retreat, The Crown Inn

We welcome you to stay at The Alehouse Retreat, sitting beside the charming Crown Inn pub in the peaceful hamlet of Cerney Wick, just outside Cirencester in the heart of the Cotswolds! This is a beautiful, newly-renovated self-catering home with all the benefits of good food, local ales, and the relaxed atmosphere of a traditional village inn just next door.

On the ground floor, you`ll find a spacious living room, ideal for relaxing after a day of adventure. The kitchen is well-equipped and offers everything you need to prepare delicious meals, with plenty of space for dining. Upstairs, we have a cosy bedroom and a modern en-suite with a shower, perfect for couples.

The location is one of the property’s biggest delights. Cirencester, known as the “Capital of the Cotswolds,” is only a short drive away and offers a mix of Roman history, boutique shops, cafés, markets and beautiful parkland.

Even closer is the vast Cotswolds lakes, with the Cotswold Water Park and South Cerney lakes just a short drive away, a huge network of over one hundred and fifty lakes offering paddleboarding, kayaking, sailing, wakeboarding, swimming, wildlife reserves and lakeside walks. It’s a paradise for both adventure seekers and those who simply enjoy wandering beside the water.

If you’re looking for a comfortable, characterful place to stay with the Cotswolds at your fingertips, this little lodge in Cerney Wick is a lovely place to call home during your visit!



**Important: To help protect our homes and guests, we may require the lead guest named on the booking to complete an independent ID verification process prior to arrival. It’s nice and easy, taking less than 5 minutes to complete. Please note this MUST be completed by the named booker. If completed by someone else, we will request for the verification to be resubmitted. Failure to complete this process correctly may result in the cancellation of the booking.

For stays of 14 nights or more, a mid stay clean is required every two weeks, charged at £80 and including fresh sheets and towels. Our housekeeper handles this and you`ll receive a payment request closer to the date. You`re welcome to message us your preferred day within that week so we can work around your diary.

Please note: We verify your details before your booking can begin and this must be completed 48 hours prior to your stay. You’ll receive a secure link to our deposit, damage waiver and ID verification platform to complete this step. You’ll be given the choice between paying a fully refundable £300 deposit (with a small, non-refundable £5.00 fee to cover payment processing fees) or purchasing a non-refundable £30 damage waiver, which protects you against accidental damage up to £300 during your stay. Check-in information will only be sent once this is completed.**
