Sezincote is a tiny rural parish in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England, best known for its striking early 19th-century house and park. The red‑brick country house was executed in an Indian‑inspired, Mughal‑style by Samuel Pepys Cockerell for the Cockerell family and is set in landscaped grounds with a lake and ornamental planting that feel unusually exotic against the surrounding limestone hills of the Cotswolds.

The parish remains largely estate and agricultural land, with the house and gardens providing much of the local cultural and economic activity through limited public openings and private events. Its contrast of orientalate architecture and traditional English countryside makes Sezincote a point of interest for visitors and students of architectural history, while its low population and working farmland preserve a quiet, rural character.
