Cotswold Park

There’s a luxurious vibe from the very first moment you arrive at this luxury Cotswold manor house. Whether you’re touching down on the private grass landing strip in a light aircraft, stepping off a helicopter, or driving up the sweeping approach, you’re immediately part of something rare and special. This isn’t just a stay — it’s an invitation to experience life as the landed gentry, with the rolling Cotswold hills as your backdrop.

From clay pigeon shooting at dawn to river fishing at your leisure, every hour here can be filled with pleasure and adventure. And when you’ve had your fill of outdoor pursuits, the charm of the house welcomes you inside for indulgent relaxation.

Perfect for corporate retreats that balance focus with fun, or for friends and family gatherings where laughter carries long into the night, Cotswold Park offers that elusive combination of grandeur, comfort, and the freedom to enjoy it entirely your way — the ideal large country house to rent for group celebrations or quiet escapes.

Elegant Social Spaces

Imagine slipping into a black-tie dinner after a day making the most of the estate’s amenities, the stately dining room glowing in candlelight, crystal glasses catching the light as conversations flow. On warmer evenings, step onto the terrace with a chilled drink in hand, watching the sunset over endless parkland.

The Blue Drawing Room, flooded with morning light, is made for unhurried coffees and long chats, while the log fire in the main drawing room invites you to sink into a sofa and forget the outside world.

In the kitchen, laughter bounces off marble worktops as friends gather around the central island, glasses in hand, keeping the cook company. For a more relaxed atmosphere, the breakfast room’s doors open onto the terrace — a lovely spot for a sunny brunch before the day’s adventures in this exclusive Cotswold retreat.

Luxury Bedrooms & Suites

Each of the ten bedrooms is designed to make leaving in the morning a reluctant affair. Some feature indulgent freestanding baths, perfect for a long soak after a day outdoors, while others offer romantic four-poster beds for evenings wrapped in comfort. The upper floor’s vaulted ceilings and calming décor create peaceful hideaways — ideal for anyone needing a quiet moment.

For night owls, there’s a special retreat: a vaulted bedroom off the entertainment room with its own ensuite and a deep copper bath for two. Whether you want lively company or blissful solitude, Cotswold Park’s sleeping spaces are as adaptable as your mood, making it a luxury family getaway you’ll remember for years.

Entertainment & Fun

This large country house to rent has entertainment spaces designed to keep everyone happily engaged from morning to night. On the first floor, the games room is alive with friendly competition — billiard cues striking, table football spinning, and laughter filling the air. It’s a true large house with games room experience, where families reconnect and friends discover a competitive streak they didn’t know they had.

When it’s time to slow the pace, sink into the extra-large sofa for a film on the big screen. Whether it’s a children’s favourite or a long-awaited blockbuster, the sound and picture quality wrap you in the story. And with a second big screen downstairs, there’s no need for a vote — everyone can watch what they love.

The beauty of these spaces is in their flexibility. They work just as well for a rainy afternoon with the kids as they do for an evening wind-down after a day exploring the Cotswolds. Every corner invites conversation, shared moments, and the kind of relaxed fun that makes you forget about time altogether.

Fresh Air & Fun

At this country estate with hot tub, every season brings its own kind of magic. From the courtyard, the views stretch across lawns and parkland, with croquet laid out on the front lawn for those who enjoy a touch of old-fashioned elegance — a setting that works beautifully for a big house for celebrations.

As a manor house with estate activities, there is no shortage of ways to spend the day. Follow horseback trails that weave through open fields, try your hand at clay pigeon shooting with expert tuition, or drift quietly along winding paths on an electric scooter, soaking in the countryside at your own pace. The grounds also lend themselves perfectly to a big house for corporate events, giving space to breathe and connect between activities.

Morning walks might take you past grazing deer, while afternoons could be spent fishing in a peaceful bend of the river. Later, sink into the hot tub under open skies — whether it’s a crisp winter evening with the steam rising into the cold air, or a balmy summer night beneath the stars, it’s always a highlight of the stay. Picnic spots are scattered across the estate, making it a party house to rent where time outside is as memorable as the house itself.

Out and About

Within 15 minutes you can race through Charlton Park Estate with Baboon Adventures, where electric scooters take you across woodland trails and grassy tracks — an ideal adrenaline kick before returning to relax in your luxury houses to rent setting. For nature at its best, Westonbirt Arboretum offers treetop walkways, rare trees, and seasonal outdoor concerts, while the Cotswold Country Park & Beach invites you to swim, paddleboard, or simply enjoy the UK’s largest inland beach.

A short drive opens up even more variety. Explore Cerney House Gardens, a romantic walled retreat with a self-serve honesty café, or visit Cirencester’s Corinium Museum to step into the story of Roman Britain. If you’re seeking hands-on fun, The Cotswold Range provides private archery and air rifle lessons, perfect for group bonding during your stay at this party house hire. Art lovers can wander through the Cotswold Sculpture Park from April to September, while film fans will adore Lacock Village, a timeless National Trust village featured in Harry Potter and Downton Abbey.

Families can also head to the Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens, where giraffes, rhinos and lions roam just under an hour away. For grown-up groups, a little further afield the Cotswolds Distillery offers expert-led tastings and cocktail masterclasses — a rewarding contrast to nights of celebration back at your large house rental.

Culture and nature combine beautifully around Malmesbury, only 30 minutes away. Walk through the ancient abbey grounds, take in Lower Moor’s boardwalks and lakes, or follow circular trails along the River Avon.
