"This house is blessed with a personal and relaxed atmosphere that touches the heart of every visitor". Visitors' book

Uplands today is special because of the warmth and happiness which pervades everything, the way visitors feel cherished, and the high standard of presentation. Poppy and Graham work together to give their guests the best possible time. They love meeting people, and chatting to them, and encourage them to have dinner at home. Poppy is a working picture restorer, and Graham is an engineer and has recently retired from teaching at Kings College, London and now runs a business making flight data recorders for gliders. Both have been Olympic fencers, and are still active on the veteran circuit. After years of charity fundraising and organizing the catering for countless events Poppy has won many accolades for her creative cooking, and takes great pleasure in her cuisine. She likes to greet the guests, and give them a delicious home made tea, and if they like, dinner too. Graham's practical skills are invaluable in keeping everything running smoothly.

Poppy grew up at Barton House, in Barton on the Heath, not far from Uplands, so has plenty of detailed local knowledge. She and Graham delight in helping guests plan their days, and will happily assist with organising garden tours, bike hire, riding, a game of tennis, walks in the vicinity, booking restaurants or theatre tickets, or downloading opening times of the many places to visit in the Cotswolds listed under Attractions.
