Celebrate family birthdays and anniversaries
Daisy Chain provides the perfect setting for extended families to come together to celebrate the richness of life through special birthdays and anniversaries. If you’re envisioning a multi-generational gathering to celebrate a milestone birthday or anniversary, look no further – Daisy Chain has been carefully tailored with your needs in mind.
Picture this: a lakeside holiday home that comfortably sleeps 9, offering the ideal setting for your special occasion. Our large oak table, accompanied by high chairs for little ones, ensures that everyone can gather around for festive meals together. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything needed for your celebration meals.

Concerned about keeping the children entertained? Fear not! Daisy Chain is brimming with toys, books, and games to captivate their imaginations. Moreover, the Lower Mill Estate, where Daisy Chain is located, boasts an array of activities – from swimming and tennis to playgrounds and cycle tracks – ensuring that the young ones are engaged and having fun. And for a touch of adventure, we provide a Canadian Canoe for exploring the lakes.
Worried that this won’t be a holiday for grown-ups? Don’t be. For adults seeking moments of serenity and leisure, Daisy Chain offers plenty of activities to complement your family celebrations. Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature with scenic walks on the 450-acre nature reserve. Birdwatching enthusiasts will enjoy the lakeside location and the opportunity to spot a range of species from the comfort of the balcony. Those wanting a little more action will enjoy games of tennis, runs around the estate, time in the gym…and maybe indulge in a spa treatment.
For those moments when grandparents crave a peaceful retreat, there is a thoughtfully designed haven on the second floor. This private sanctuary features an ensuite bedroom with a quiet seating area, a desk/dressing table, and a television. It is the perfect retreat for some well-deserved relaxation nestled away from the exuberance of youth.

Daisy Chain has been the chosen venue for many significant birthday celebrations; 40th, 50th, 60th, 65th, 70th, and 80th, as well as hosting a number of ruby and golden wedding anniversaries. All ages are accommodated with ease: the widest age range so far has been from 8 weeks to 80 years!
Every detail has been meticulously considered to ensure that your multi-generational celebration is not just memorable, but talked about for years to come. Welcome to Daisy Chain: a space where joy knows no bounds and family bonds are strengthened – your dream celebration awaits!

Perfect setting for family and friends.
We stayed at Daisy Chain for my Dad’s 60th birthday. There was a mix of age groups and interests, and the property met each of our needs. It was clean, modern, spacious and the views over the lake were simply stunning. The owners had obviously gone to great lengths to ensure that our stay was as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. They were also always quick to reply to any queries I had leading up to our getaway and it was reassuring to know they were only ever a phone call away during our long weekend (not that we had any issues). The Lower Mill Estate onsite spa was of course an added bonus and a great contingency plan for those rainy days. Just a two minute walk from Daisy Chain, it was fantastic to be able to go swimming or visit the sauna whenever we liked.
If you’re looking for a place to stay with a group of friends or family, young and old, somewhere to get away from it all to enjoy each other’s company, Daisy Chain is the perfect retreat. We’ll definitely be returning!

Daisy Chain was the perfect venue
My family celebrated 2 big birthdays, a 70th and an 80th, over a long weekend and Daisy Chain was the perfect venue for us. The house is stunning; equipped with everything you could think of for a getaway and the views over the lake are beautiful. There are great facilities in the house and activities around the resort for guests of all ages – we found that every generation was catered for, from tiny tots to golden oldies. The spa is fab and the heated outdoor pool was a highlight, lovely temperature even in February, and the kids were thrilled with the playgrounds and the soft play area. Our celebration was really special, great memories were made and I would wholeheartedly recommend Daisy Chain. Thanks to our hosts, so accommodating and great communication throughout.
