UNDISCOVERED
SIX COUNTIES. ONE EXTRAORDINARY REGION.
At the very centre of the country, just an hour from London by train, lies a largely undiscovered stretch of English countryside. Limestone villages, market towns and historic landscapes shaped by centuries of quiet continuity.
Unhurried, unspoilt and quietly full of character, the Notswolds is both a place and a project. One is the landscape itself. The other is a creative response to it. Rooted in quality and community, the Notswolds offers that rarest of things: a place to belong, whether for a weekend or forever.

THE PROJECT
What began as a creative idea has grown into a platform connecting people with this remarkable part of the country through design, culture, storytelling and film.

THE PEOPLE
Guided by a belief in storytelling and the value of craft, our mission is to celebrate and connect through design culture and thoughtful storytelling.
SEASONAL PLATES_
Some dishes belong to a particular moment in the year. Pigs in Blankets is one of them.
Ali Duncombe, head chef at Fern Uppingham, shows us how to make this seasonal classic from scratch. Built around a single prize pig from Uppingham Fatstock Day at the end of November, part of a long-standing tradition of preparing for the festive table..
AN EMERGING REGION
This landscape has been worked, settled, and lived in long before modern ideas of region or boundary. Defined as much by how people live here now as by what came before, today it is emerging as a region being seen again and lived in differently, shaped by contemporary makers, farmers, and families.
