A Wellness Stay at Daylesford Organic
Outside Daylesford Organic, Winter 2026
I've been thinking a lot lately about the spaces that help us slow down and reconnect with ourselves. Daylesford Organic is one of those places for me. Every visit leaves me wondering how much our surroundings influence the way we feel, think, and move through the world. A special space in The Cotswolds and somewhere you’re guaranteed to feel wholeheartedly inspired by the little details of the farm, the sustainable fabrics in Bamford, and the invitation to honour the season.
How to have a Daylesford Organic overnight stay
The Fox at Oddington
There is nothing better than checking into a room and noticing endless small details within the first few moments. What stood out most wasn't luxury, but attention. The natural materials, the herbal teas, the Bamford products thoughtfully placed in the room. It made me wonder why some spaces immediately put us at ease while others leave us feeling disconnected. The small details were perfected with care. It meant I could pack lighter as I could trust the quality which added to the whole wellbeing experience. The village pub menu is inspired by Daylesford, so breakfast was a real warming treat before a crisp morning walk in the countryside.
Daylesford Organic Farm
We always allow more time than we think we need to spend at the farm. Yes, there are shops in London but it’s just not quite the same. Everything here feels intentionally curated to encourage a different pace of attention. In modern life we're often moving quickly through spaces. Here, I found myself lingering, noticing, and feeling inspired by things as simple as a tin of beans or a beautifully packaged tea. I picked up a bag of organic decaf coffee to test at home.

A La Carte Menu, The Wild Rabbit, Winter 2026
Halfway through dinner, the power unexpectedly went out. Nobody panicked. A few more candles appeared on the tables and conversations simply continued. Strangely, it became my favourite moment of the evening. It reminded me how often the most memorable experiences are the unplanned ones.
The menu reflects everything I love about Daylesford, recently recognised as ‘Sustainable Pub of the Year’ by the Top 50 Gastropubs awards.
Where to walk the next morning (and get Matcha)
I’m a January baby, I’m used to spending my birthday in the rain… but we lucked out again, and the weather was clear and dry. One of the prettiest walks, with the reward of a great matcha latte in the loveliest of towns, is Bourton-on-the-Water to Lower Slaughter. If you love to support small, independent businesses, I highly recommend Soul Bowl. I ended my walk with a traditionally prepared organic matcha latte. A delightful end to our Daylesford Organic inspired stay.
