Rita Ora ‘s decision to race to the Cotswolds ahead of the government imposed lockdown to bunker away in the countryside rather than at her London home has set her back just shy of £30,000 Daily Star Online can reveal.
The pop princess, who recently released Lewis Capaldi penned track How To Be Lonely, splurged on the stunning £1.2 million mansion in the Cotswolds in March.
Costing £416 a night, the sprawling 11th century home boasts six double bedrooms, four bathrooms, an outdoor BBQ area and a built in Bose speaker system.
While it’s not known how long Rita will remain at the plush dwelling before returning to London, the property has been block booked until December 30, 2020.
A source said: “Rita moved in the third week of March the property has been blocked out until the end of the year. It is world’s away from her West London pad and the hustle bustle of life on the road.

“At £416 a night it isn’t cheap but when you’re one of the wealthiest women in music it could be worse.
“That being said, due to the on going pandemic so far the bill for the stay is close to £30,000.
“If Rita does end up staying there all year the rent alone would be over £100,000.”

Rita, who is said to be worth just shy of £12 million, has been using her time in lockdown to work on her third studio album and catch up on sleep.
“The studio is my safe haven. I’m very lucky to have space to create and make music in isolation,” she explained.
“I have been able to experiment musically and do things I wouldn’t usually have time to do—messing around with samples, instruments, voices, production, and learning guitar, although I still can’t really play.

“Recently I added balloons to the studio, because they just make me so happy…balloons are a vibe.”
The chart-topper added to British Vogue: “I’ve been lucky enough to be surrounded by the English countryside.
“I don’t usually have the chance to spend too long in one place at one time, so I’m really soaking it in. I’ve been on some epic walks, breathing in the fresh air and just being totally at one with nature and animals.”
A rep for Rita Ora declined to comment.
