Boutique Stay in a Historic Countryside Home

Welcome to Upper Farm — a soulful blend of English countryside elegance and Brazilian spirit, created as your very own private residence hotel. This is a place for slow mornings, long lunches, evening swims, orchard wandering, woodsmoke, vinyl, great wine, stone-fired pizza, beautifully plated food and curated experiences designed to make your stay feel effortless. The space Please note: On selected Thursdays, the Clubhouse hosts our famous Pizza, Wine & Jazz Supper Club by La Pizza di Bruna. On these evenings, the space is opened to a limited number of external guests as part of our curated dining experience. If your stay includes a Thursday, please ensure you are comfortable with this before booking. You are very welcome to join the Supper Club yourselves, and we would be happy to reserve a table for you. As our in-house guests, you will also enjoy a complimentary alcoholic or non-alcoholic drink with your meal. For more information on our supper clubs, please send us a message. On all other days, the Clubhouse remains entirely private and exclusive to guests of the house. :) Spring and summer are when Upper Farm truly comes alive. Long golden days stretch across the fields, the heated pool becomes the heart of daily life, and breakfasts naturally drift outdoors. Families & friends spend hours moving between the orchard, the courtyard and the pool; children roam freely while adults linger over wine, books or sun-soaked conversation. It feels like a private countryside resort — intimate, warm and free. Upper Farm is perfect for families, multi-generational stays, groups of friends and celebrations — with indoor and outdoor spaces designed for both privacy and togetherness. Whether you're joining us for a luxury group stay, a family holiday, a wellness weekend, a stylish hen party, a foodie escape or a Silverstone adventure, Upper Farm offers a setting that feels relaxed, generous and quietly indulgent. Dine with us, self-cater, or blend both — your stay, your rhythm. And when winter arrives, the estate transforms into a glowing retreat. Candlelight, orchard views and fireside drinks create the backdrop for our Upper Farm Christmas Dining Experience — Champagne and canapés by the fire, followed by a three-course festive feast served in our candlelit dining space. A celebration of warmth, connection and tradition. 🎨 A LIVING GALLERY Art is part of Upper Farm’s identity. Original works by Damien Hirst, David Bailey, John Lennon, Picasso, Liu Bolin, David Yarrow, John Love, Mark Illuminati, Conrad Leach and more turn the house into a living, breathing gallery. In the gardens, sculptures by David Harber transform the orchard and lawns into an open-air exhibition. Nothing here is accidental; it's all curated. Guests often describe Upper Farm as a place that stays with them long after they’ve left. Whether you're here to reset, reconnect, celebrate or simply feel something different — this is luxury with soul. 🛏️ ACCOMMODATION Upper Farm sleeps up to 10 guests across two private, beautifully designed spaces — ideal for families, friends, wellness retreats, bridal groups and celebratory weekends.
