Beautiful stone houses, rolling countryside, and an increasing number of wealthy families making it their primary base. The Cotswolds household staffing market has grown noticeably in the last five years.
With its honey-stone villages, rolling hills, and proximity to London, the Cotswolds has become one of the most sought-after locations for private estates in the United Kingdom. Families here often maintain properties of considerable scale — from converted manor houses to working farms with guest cottages and staff quarters.
Irving Scott places experienced household staff across Chipping Norton, Burford, Stow-on-the-Wold, Cirencester, and the surrounding villages. Positions frequently require flexibility, discretion, and comfort with both formal entertaining and relaxed country living.
We've placed house managers and chef-housekeepers for families in Chipping Norton, Burford, and the Slaughters. Weekend-only roles are increasingly common as families split their time.
