Thyme

Since Thyme opened in 2014, the ambition has always been to create something more than a place. Family-run, Thyme is a brand inspired by and centered around nature, its power and its magic. It’s this connection to nature that Thyme encapsulates so beautifully. Within the walls of these restored historic Cotswolds buildings, which embody local heritage, beauty and conservation, lies a passion for the land, food and entertaining. Caryn Hibbert, Founder and Creative Director of Thyme has spent years overseeing the restoration of the 17th-century buildings with assiduity and intelligence, breathing new life into them and creating a thriving working community and inspirational business. Working alongside her son, Charlie (Chef Director) and daughter, Milly (General Manager), they have invested a huge amount of care and attention into the development of the farm and gardens at Thyme, along with the hotel rooms, Ox Barn restaurant, school (whose aim is to inspire seasonal creativity in cooking, painting or making), Meadow Spa, spring water swimming pool, tennis court, Orchid House, Botanical Bothy & Thyme’s sibling brand, Bertioli’s beauty products, Baa bar, balcony room and piggery boutiques selling Bertioli’s silk wear, tableware, homeware and interiors, Tithe Barn for exhibitions and private events, cottages for private hire and the Swan pub – creating a true destination in the Cotswolds.
