The Friends are delighted to offer their members an opportunity to visit the privately owned Cotswold Farm (not to be confused with Cotswold Farm Park).
Cotswold Farm consists of a historic Arts and Crafts house designed Sidney Barnsley and Norman Jewson. Jewson also designed the garden in the 1930s. The garden is laid out on descending levels, enclosed by Cotswold stone walls and yew hedges, it overlooks a peaceful valley and has all year round interest. The house is a private family home, and has been in the Birchall family for five generations.
We have arranged a guided tour of the garden and house, given by the homeowner, which will be followed by tea.
NB: Ticket holders need to make their own way to Cotswold Farm, which is near Duntisbourne Abbots, Cirencester (https://www.cotswoldfarmgardens.org.uk/) and if you have any specific dietary requirements please detail them in the 'special requests' box or email office.administrator@fogc.co.uk.
Initially booking is only open to members of the Friends of Gloucester Cathedral and their invited guests. If you are not already a member and would like to join, you can find details here: https://gloucestercathedral.org.uk/support/friends/join
