ARC Painswick

Surrounded by honey-coloured villages and rolling countryside, ARC Painswick offers a refined retreat in the heart of the Cotswolds. Centred around the beautifully restored Cardynham House, the property balances historic character with contemporary design.

Rooms & Suites

Set around a charming central courtyard, ARC Painswick combines the character of a historic Cotswold manor with the comfort of a contemporary group retreat. Accommodating up to 24 guests, the property offers beautifully appointed bedrooms alongside a collection of generous social spaces designed for gathering and relaxation.

Food & Drink

At the heart of the house is a state-of-the-art kitchen with premium appliances and a large communal island, designed for cooking and gathering together. On warmer days, the alfresco kitchen, complete with a pizza oven and South African-style Braai, invites dining outdoors. Generous indoor and outdoor dining tables provide the perfect setting for long, leisurely meals spent sharing food, stories and wine.
