Isobel Lorna recently visited what she calls the “most expensive farm shop in the UK,” located in Gloucestershire’s picturesque Cotswolds. Armed with a £40 budget, she explored Daylesford Organic Farm Shop and shared her surprising findings with her 1.2 million TikTok followers.
Upon entering, Isobel was taken aback by the prices. Luxuries like bags of caviar and crisps made with 100% extra virgin olive oil were priced at £6.75 each. The sweets section offered limited options, including viola chocolates adorned with real flower petals, which cost an astonishing £15 per box.
Her search for biscuits led her to organic Bakewell treats priced at £9.25 per bag. Opting for a drink to pair with her purchases, she chose a tiny iced nut latte, which set her back £6.50.

By the time Isobel reached the checkout, she was nervous about her total. To her surprise, the £37.90 bill just squeezed under her £40 limit. “Wow, £37 for four items,” she remarked, adding, “I literally almost fainted at the checkout.”
The TikTok video, posted last year, has since amassed over 900,000 views, sparking a mix of reactions. Many expressed shock at the price tags, with one viewer calling £9 for a bag of cookies “criminal,” while another joked that the crisps must have “2027 prices.”
Others praised the farm shop, highlighting its exceptional quality and atmosphere. Several visitors recommended Daylesford both for its produce and as a beautiful spot for a day out.
The farm shop itself emphasizes its close connection to the source: fruit and vegetables are harvested daily, meats come from their own pasture-raised farms, and their bakery and creamery offer artisan breads and award-winning cheeses. The store also features a delicatessen, organic wines, ready-made meals, and a zero waste pantry where customers can bring containers to refill staples.
Daylesford Organic Farm Shop combines luxury, quality, and sustainability, making it a destination for food lovers willing to pay a premium for artisanal goods.
