This is a working butcher and farm shop that serves as a real hub for Prestbury village.
You'll find locals stopping by regularly, and it's easy to see why once you're inside. The counter displays high-quality meats sourced directly from Cotswolds farms and the surrounding countryside, with both traditional cuts and less common options prepared with genuine care. If you're staying in a cottage and want to cook something special, this is the place to find ingredients that supermarkets simply don't stock.
Beyond the meat counter, the shop carries other local producer goods—free-range eggs, artisanal cheeses, preserves, and seasonal vegetables depending on what's available. It's a straightforward approach to eating well while supporting the farms and makers that keep the region distinctive.
Prestbury itself is a peaceful village just on the edge of Cheltenham, so you can easily combine a shopping trip here with time exploring the larger town if you want more restaurants or attractions. Whether you're picking up ingredients for a Sunday roast or gathering some proper charcuterie for a picnic, Waghorne's has the feel of a genuine local business—no marketing spin, just good food and real connections to the community that sustains it.
