The civil parish of Batsford sits in the southern Cotswolds in Gloucestershire, a short drive from the market town of Moreton-in-Marsh and set within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is a small, predominantly rural community of farmland, woodland and honey-coloured stone buildings that exemplify the classic Cotswold landscape.
Its best-known feature is Batsford Arboretum, one of the country’s larger private collections of trees and shrubs, which draws visitors for spring magnolias and dramatic autumn colour and helps support a local economy centred on conservation, tourism and estate farming. The parish also contains an historic church and a handful of estate houses and cottages, reflecting a long local history tied to agriculture and country living.
