Inside the kitchen of the Cotswolds Beckhams: David shares glimpse of the family’s £12million mansion
David Beckham offered fans a glimpse into the kitchen of the famous Cotswolds family on Instagram this week when he and daughter Harper, 11, shared a cooking video.
The former footballer, 48, whipped up burritos in the £12million converted barn with stone floors and wooden beams.
The couple, who bought the property in 2017, have renovated it from top to bottom, opting for chic dark gray cabinets complete with gold handles and built-in fridge.
David, who also shares sons Brooklyn, 24, Rome, 20, and Cruz, 18, wife Victoria, 49, even shared a quick peek into the fridge during his most recent tutorial as it overflowed with fresh meats, fruits, and spices.
To complete the country house aesthetic there is a black double fronted AGA and a traditional pizza oven with a huge pile of firewood ready for the family to rustle up the Italian dish.

They cook in chic copper pans hanging from the large rack and clean up with designer Daylesford White Stripe tea towels from the eponymous and nearby village.
Huge wooden planks hung from the exposed brickwork next to oak planks piled high with glassware.
The kitchen offers plenty of space with a breakfast bar and a large leather sofa that is perfect for the whole family around the fireplace.
Large glass doors lead out onto the fabulous lawn where David keeps his bees and produces his own honey.
Following the Beckhams’ improvements, the property features a sauna, plunge pool, football pitch, gym, swimming pool and a £50,000 on-site safari tent for entertainment, and is now valued at around £12 million.
Victoria, 49, took to Instagram to share the sweet video of her husband and daughter cooking together — and fans were seriously in awe of her skills.
The duo caused a storm as they prepared fresh salsa before making chicken burritos.

In the video, Harper was seen chopping onions as she showed off her cooking skills while making the salsa while David prepped the burritos.

David also revealed that their lunch choice was inspired by Victoria’s best friend’s new movie Flamin’ Hot, which they watched on Friday night.
He said, “We’re making burritos inspired by Flamin’ Hot movie by Eva our friend.”
The clip then showed Harper and David making rice and guacamole to complete their tasty burritos.
Alongside the video, Victoria wrote, “Salsa Saturday!! When @Davidbeckham and #HarperSeven are inspired by @Flaminhotmovie @Evalongoria!! Kisses @peggygou.’
Victoria’s close friend Eva, 48, has made her directorial debut with Flamin’ Hot, which was released on June 9.

Streaming on Hulu and Disney+, the film is based on the true story of how a janitor named Richard Montañez invented Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.
Fans took to the comment section to comment on the stunning kitchen and their cooking skills.
One wrote, “Harper is the real star of the kitchen,” another added, “Oh my god. A normal looking refrigerator, not all stacked in rainbow order and all decanted into identical bowls! I’m a Beckham!!!’
A third chimed in, “I love the kitchen and when did little Harper suddenly grow up?!” And why is there no David Beckham in my kitchen?! I like the father-daughter time.’
It comes after Brooklyn rekindled the ire of his followers with another “out of touch” cooking video he shared on his Instagram on Wednesday.
The aspiring chef, 24, took to the social media platform to promote a partnership with Chosen Foods avocado oil, which retails for between $15 and $20.
In introducing the video, Brooklyn explained to his fans that he would make fried chicken by shallow frying it with the brand’s “100 percent avocado” oil.
David and Victoria’s son shared a clip about making the fried chicken, but fans disagreed with the oil he used.
Despite claims of the oil’s “high smoke point and bland taste,” Brooklyn’s followers claimed he used a “massive amount” of the expensive product for the recipe.
Brooklyn, who has previously come under fire for his gaudy ingredients, including truffle and a £60 beef rib, was once again ribbed for his choices.

His critics argued that Brooklyn could have promoted the product with a much cheaper recipe, rather than using “the whole bottle” on two pieces of chicken.
They said, ‘Why the hell are you frying in oil that costs $15/20 a bottle? I realize this is a paid promo, but something that makes more sense, like making a mayonnaise with it, rather than throwing so much into a pan to fry some chicken!
They concluded, “Cozzie lives Brookie babes x.”
Another person saw the amount of oil Brooklyn used and said, “That’s at least $25 worth of avocado oil!”
Others referred to the amount of oil generally used, noting that baking rather than frying the chicken would have been a healthier option.
One person joked, “Hi Brooklyn, looks great, is it good for my grandfather with clogged arteries?” Thank you.’
Another asked, “Couldn’t you have baked the chicken?” Why fry in a huge amount of oil? Why provoke people to eat very harmful and unhealthy food. sucks.’
