Americans can't get enough of Cotswolds chocolate-box villages
The Observer
|July 27, 2025
US visitors aren't just enjoying holidays in the area, they're buying up homes and moving in
Secret service personnel sporting suits and earpieces were a conspicuous presence in the Oxfordshire village of Charlbury last week, as former US vice-president Kamala Harris attended a party ahead of yesterday's wedding of Apple heiress Eve Jobs and showjumping Olympian Harry Charles.
The marriage of Steve Jobs's daughter to her fiancé took place at Estelle Manor, a grade II-listed country house and members' club. A few days before, guests, including the former presidential candidate and her security, gathered for a meal at the Bull, an ivy-covered Cotswolds pub.
But Harris isn’t the only high-profile American arriving in the Cotswolds this summer. Her successor, JD Vance, is expected to spend part of his summer holiday in the area, and is rumoured to have rented a house next month, also in Charlbury.
