Cotswolds Collection 5/8″ Engineered 10 1/4″ Wide European Oak by BareRoots brings a sense of timeless English countryside character to wide-plank hardwood flooring. Inspired by the rolling meadows and honey-stone architecture of the Cotswolds region, this collection channels that quiet refinement into every plank.

At 10 1/4″ wide and a full 5/8″ thick with a 4mm wear layer, these engineered European Oak planks make a statement the moment you walk in. The majority of planks extend to 87″ in length, delivering the long, clean sightlines that only true wide-format flooring can achieve. That combination of width and length creates an expansive, uninterrupted floor surface that suits both contemporary open-plan spaces and traditionally styled rooms alike.

Each plank is milled from authentic European white oak using a Live Sawn technique that captures the full range of grain character — from tight, straight lines to sweeping cathedral patterns. The character grade selection embraces natural knots, mineral streaks, and the subtle color shifts that make European oak genuinely distinctive. A wire-brushed texture opens the surface of the wood, drawing out depth and grain detail while providing a tactile quality underfoot that smooth finishes simply can’t match.

Micro-beveled edges and ends on the prefinished colorways define each plank cleanly and accommodate the natural movement engineered construction is designed to manage. The aluminum oxide finish carries a 30-year limited finish warranty, and the collection is offered in eight rich prefinished colorways — from soft, light-washed tones to deeply saturated warm hues — alongside a Natural option for versatility. For those who prefer to stain or finish on-site, the Cotswolds Collection is also available unfinished in select, prime, and character grades, with both square-edge and micro-beveled edge profiles.

Installation flexibility is built in: Direct Glue-Down, Nail-Down, Staple-Down, and Floating methods are all supported, making the Cotswolds Collection a practical choice for a wide range of subfloor conditions and installation preferences.
