The village green is bordered by gorgeous homes, with many of them dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries.

There’s also a local shop and a church.

Nearby there is the Daylesford Organic which has been dubbed the UK’s poshest farm shop and is said to be a favourite of Princess Eugenie.

In fact, the village is something of a foodie paradise with its pubs, the Kingham Plough and The Wild Rabbit, both highly regarded.

The farm owned by Blur bassist Alex James also plays host to the annual Big Feastival.

Daylesford is also thought to have been the inspiration for Jeremy Clarkson’s Diddly Squat Farm.

During the Covid lockdown’s Daylesford also delivered food hampers to Boris Johnson at Number 10.

If that wasn’t enough, it is also believed to be the go-to shop for the Beckhams and Ellie Goulding, who is thought to be a regular and live nearby.
