Why we love it
What makes Latimer Farm stand out is its rare sense of balance: this is a polished Cotswold estate that still feels rooted in the land around it. Across old stone barns, orchard and open fields, there’s room for long-table meals, fireside evenings and unhurried mornings, yet the mood remains calm rather than showy. It’s the kind of place that suits a proper gathering, but never loses the gentleness of a countryside retreat.

About the Property
Latimer Farm is an 18th-century farmhouse estate reworked with a light editorial touch, where original beams, stone walls and flagstone floors sit easily alongside cleaner, more contemporary interiors. The estate unfolds across gardens, orchard and open countryside, with four separate dwellings giving everyone a little independence while keeping the sense of a shared stay. Days can drift between the heated outdoor pool, tennis court, wood-burner evenings and walks over to Daylesford, while the Dutch Barn provides a natural heart for coming together. Despite its scale, it doesn’t feel corporate or over-designed. The atmosphere is private, settled and quietly sociable - best for multigenerational trips, old friends gathering well, or anyone wanting the Cotswolds with a little more space and ease.
Location
Upper Oddington
Upper Oddington sits in one of the Cotswolds’ most polished pockets, where limestone villages, gently folded fields and long hedgerow-lined lanes create a landscape made for slow drives and longer walks. This is a part of the region that feels both deeply rural and quietly well connected, with Daylesford close by and Stow-on-the-Wold, Kingham and Chipping Norton within easy reach. Expect farm shops, good pubs, antique-hunting and broad skies rather than spectacle. It suits travellers who come to the Cotswolds for atmosphere: honeyed stone, seasonal food and the understated pleasures of the English countryside.
