Meet The Team

At Cossington Park we aim to deliver an exceptional service to guests staying in our luxury Somerset holiday cottages. We’re fortunate to have a team dedicated to maintaining our two historic homes and ensuring that each visitor has an unforgettable experience.

Some of our team have been with us for years and have extensive knowledge about the estate and the local area. They’re always eager to share stories about Cossington Park, as well as their top tips for the best Somerset attractions to visit to make your stay truly special.

Even though our two luxury holiday cottages are self-catering, you can be sure one of the team will be on hand to help with any queries during your stay.

Graham - Owner-Guardian and Host

Cossington Park has been cherished by Graham’s family for over 400 years, creating many happy family memories across the generations.

Graham looks forward to welcoming you to create your own memories on this remarkable Somerset estate.

Sarah- Head Housekeeper and Gardener

Sarah has been a pillar of Cossington Park for nearly 20 years, ensuring our holiday cottages and gardens look wonderful. She’s also responsible for training new team members to her exacting standards!

In her downtime, Sarah loves to travel and often captures the beauty of the estate with her photography.

Pete - Guest Welcome

Pete is a vital part of the Guest Welcome team. He will happily provide you with a guided tour upon your arrival, sharing his extensive knowledge of Cossington Park’s rich history and the unique artifacts found throughout the estate.

A talented local artist, Pete also hosts art workshops for guests. You can see his work in the Gallery at the nearby Shapwick Heath Nature Reserve.

Dave and Claire - Walled Vegetable Garden Curators

Dave and Claire, our dedicated tenant gardeners, are the heart and soul of our flourishing organic walled vegetable garden.

With a passion that goes beyond traditional gardening, Dave describes their role as “curating”—a testament to their meticulous approach. They skilfully balance cultivating an array of delicious organic fruits and vegetables with nurturing a thriving sanctuary for the diverse wildlife on the estate.

Horse-Honorary Team Member

While Horse doesn’t contribute to housekeeping or guest services, he’s a beloved visitor who adds a touch of charm to the estate when he drops in.

He enjoys grazing, showing off his beauty and participating in the occasional photo opportunity.

Joe’s Flock - Seasonal Grounds Maintenance

At certain times of the year you might spot Joe’s Flock, who assist with maintaining the grounds by grazing the Bushey Close meadow in the middle of the estate.

Our Behind - The-Scenes Team

We are supported by dedicated team members who prefer to work quietly behind the scenes.

Their tireless efforts help ensure that the cottages and grounds remain immaculate and that every guest enjoys a wonderful stay.
