About Upper Slaughter

Upper Slaughter, a jewel of the Cotswolds, whispers tales of enduring stone and gentle waters. It lies 4.4 km south-west of Stow-on-the-Wold (from Stow-on-the-Wold: bearing 235°T, OS grid SP 155 231), and is situated west-north-west of Lower Slaughter village. The River Eye, a ribbon of cool, clear water, meanders through the heart of Upper Slaughter, its banks softened by the muted greens of ancient trees. The village’s honey-coloured limestone cottages, their roofs often clad in warm, moss-kissed slates, present a harmonious tableau against the soft, ever-changing Cotswold light. Much of its charm stems from the quiet dignity of its architecture, a testament to generations who have tended this tranquil corner of Gloucestershire. The air here carries a faint, earthy scent, a blend of damp soil and the distant aroma of hay.
