Five Cotswolds Holiday Let Shoots, Start to Finish
Five Cotswolds properties, each shown as a complete shoot with the full set of frames I delivered and a link to the written case study.
A characterful period home with a sympathetic timber extension, photographed to replace host-supplied listing images with a more polished, luxury-led booking gallery. The set brings the stone fireplace, exposed beams, brighter garden-facing extension and comfortable bedrooms into one clear stay.
A beautifully styled Cotswold stone cottage managed by Must Stay Again. The set covers the refined interiors and the branded touches, with detail frames that show the level of care a guest is paying for.
A characterful cottage in the heart of Lower Oddington, photographed as a complete guest story: warm interiors, a private courtyard, village context and an aerial frame that places the stay in its Cotswolds setting.
A complete Cotswolds holiday-let shoot built around the kitchen, stone-arched living spaces, bedrooms and garden connection, giving a premium rental the breadth of coverage it needs for a considered listing.
A newly refreshed Cotswolds cottage photographed as both an interior story and a location shoot, from the kitchen and living spaces to the higher-spec bedrooms, bathrooms and details that define the renovation.
Cotswolds Holiday Let Photography
Photography That Fills Your Calendar
The Cotswolds is one of the UK's most desirable holiday destinations, with thousands of properties competing for guests on Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. From chocolate-box cottages in Bourton-on-the-Water to luxury barn conversions near Stow-on-the-Wold, professional photography is the single most effective way to stand out and command the premium rates that Cotswolds properties deserve.
I photograph holiday lets across the entire Cotswolds AONB. I understand how to capture the honey-coloured stone, the period features and the rolling countryside that guests are searching for. Every image is carefully composed to showcase your property's character, warmth and setting.
What's Included
Professional wide-angle interior photography of every room
Exterior and garden shots, with drone aerials where appropriate
Lifestyle-styled images that capture the Cotswolds character
Optimised for Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and your own website
48-hour turnaround as standard (24hr express available)
Full commercial usage rights included
Areas I Cover
Holiday Let Photography Across the Cotswolds
I photograph Airbnb and holiday let properties throughout the Cotswolds AONB and surrounding areas. Each part of the Cotswolds has its own character and attracts different types of guests.
Stow-on-the-Wold & the North Cotswolds
Honey-stone cottages, converted barns and luxury retreats in the heart of the Cotswolds. Stow, Moreton-in-Marsh and Chipping Norton attract year-round visitors. I photograph the period features, inglenook fireplaces and walled gardens that make these properties command premium rates.
Bourton-on-the-Water & the Slaughters
Riverside cottages and village properties in some of the Cotswolds' most visited villages. Guests come for the quintessential English village experience. Photography here focuses on the stone exteriors, cottage gardens and proximity to the river and village greens.
Cirencester & the South Cotswolds
Market town apartments, farmhouse conversions and rural escapes near the 'Capital of the Cotswolds'. I capture the blend of Roman heritage, independent shops and rolling countryside that makes this area popular with couples and families.
Tetbury, Malmesbury & the Western Edge
Properties near Highgrove, Westonbirt and the Wiltshire border. This area attracts a discerning clientele looking for luxury and privacy. Photography emphasises the manicured grounds, period interiors and the sense of exclusivity that justifies higher nightly rates.
Broadway, Chipping Campden & the Escarpment
Hilltop cottages with panoramic views across the Vale of Evesham. The Cotswold escarpment offers some of the most dramatic settings in the region. Drone photography is particularly valuable here for showing the elevated position and far-reaching views.
Bibury, Burford & the Windrush Valley
Properties along the River Windrush in villages regularly described as 'the most beautiful in England'. Arlington Row in Bibury draws visitors worldwide. I photograph the honey-stone walls, mullioned windows and riverside settings that define the classic Cotswolds aesthetic.
I also cover Castle Combe, Corsham, Woodstock, Witney, Lechlade, Fairford, Northleach and all surrounding villages. See my coverage area page for the full list.

Before Your Shoot
Preparation Checklist for Cotswolds Hosts
Getting your property photo-ready makes a real difference to the final images. Here's what I recommend before every shoot.
1Declutter surfaces, remove personal items and excess toiletries
2Make beds with fresh, crisp linen (white or neutral works best)
3Open all curtains and blinds to maximise natural light
4Turn on all lights, including lamps and under-cabinet lighting
5Add fresh flowers, a bowl of fruit or a local welcome hamper
6Clean windows inside and out (they show in photos)
7Tidy the garden, patio or courtyard, move bins out of sight
8Set the dining table with clean place settings
9Light the wood burner or lay the fire (if applicable)
10Remove cars from the driveway for exterior shots
Quick Summary
The goal is to present your property exactly as a guest would find it on arrival, warm, welcoming and full of character. For Cotswolds properties, don't forget to light the fire (or lay it ready), showcase period features like exposed beams and stone walls, and ensure gardens and courtyards look inviting.
Not sure where to start? I'm happy to advise when you book. Many hosts find that preparing for a photo shoot also improves their guest reviews.
Pricing
Cotswolds Holiday Let Photography Packages
All packages include professional HDR photography, drone aerials where appropriate, full editing and 48-hour delivery*. No hidden costs. No travel charge within the Cotswolds.
If your photography is how guests find you and decide, look at . If you need a clear, accurate set of images for a listing, the standard packages are the right fit.
Starting prices
Airbnb and holiday let photography goes beyond wide-angle room shots. It's a mix of wide-angle and curated editorial-style images, lifestyle details, styled vignettes, and guest-perspective angles that sell an experience, not just a space.
80% of my work is holiday rental photography. You're booking a specialist who's shot hundreds of listings and written the book on what makes them perform.

Photography that pays for itself
On a typical holiday let at £120 to £180 a night, one or two extra bookings covers the whole shoot. Listings with professional photos take around 24% more bookings, so most hosts are back in profit within the first few weeks, and the images keep working for years afterwards.
Every package delivers a library rather than a single listing set, so you can refresh your photos through the seasons, feed direct booking sites and social, and keep your listing looking current.
Volume rates and monthly retainers available for agents and portfolio landlords. Get in touch for a rate card.
*For standard packages. Larger shoots or multi-property commissions may require additional editing time — I'll always confirm your delivery date at booking.
Signature
Signature shoots aren't priced by bedroom count. A two bed lodge with a beautifully considered interior often takes as long to photograph properly as a five bed house, because the time goes into the light and the detail rather than the floor area. So these are booked by the day.

Magazine-worthy, not just listing-ready
Editorial imagery shot and finished to the standard interiors magazines publish. Composed properly, lit properly, hand-finished frame by frame.
One bed hut to large country house
A day rate suits both ends. Shepherd's huts and one bed lodges, boutique cottages, and larger houses and mansions all get the same level of care.
The best set your property can give
We wait for the light, style and reset as we go, and don't leave until the property has been shown at its best. Guaranteed, or I reshoot it.
It should pay for itself, quickly
At luxury nightly rates, a Signature shoot is typically earned back on the first booking it wins you. From there it is pure return: the same set keeps filling your calendar, at a higher nightly rate, for years.
Half Day
from £550
Typically earned back on the first booking it wins you
Around four hours on location. Time enough for the main spaces, the details that make the place what it is, and a considered exterior. Every frame hand-finished.
Full Day
£950
Usually earned back within the first booking or two
A full day on location, including a dusk sequence. Every space you want to feature, styled and reset as we go, plus grounds and aerials where they matter. Every frame hand-finished.
Signature isn't a bigger package. It's a different kind of shoot: fewer, better frames, made with the time and attention that a property with real character needs. If what you want is a large library to rotate through, Airbnb Premium is the better buy.
What drives the time is how many spaces you want to feature, whether we're styling and resetting between shots, whether we're waiting for the right light, and whether there are exteriors, grounds or aerials to cover. Tell me what you have in mind and I'll say which makes sense.
Signature sets aren't sold by the image. You get everything worth keeping from the time we spend, fully finished, which is where the value sits: a small set of images this strong will out-earn a large set of ordinary ones, and they stay usable for years across your listing, your own site, print and press.
