The school is housed in a fine, Grade II-listed〔(English Heritage listing )〕 Victorian mansion known as Buchan Hill that was built for an ostrich-farming millionaire named P Saillard in 1882-3. The building is a large Elizabethan-style house, designed by the architects Eshart George and Harold Peto.〔(Main building to Cottesmore School. Listing on English Heritage's Images of England website )〕 Buchan Hill was originally purchased in the early 19th century by Hon. Thomas Erskine (Lord Chancellor 1806-1807), son of the Earl of Buchan.
