The Experience
On the hem of the Longleat estate lost in the country is this lovely pub. They’re committed to good food: the kitchen turns out delicious, locally sourced dishes using meat and game from the estate. Breakfast is a generous affair of pastries, fresh fruit or something hot. The wine list is huge and they serve three ales on tap – book the private upstairs dining room for special meals.
Choose from one of 16 bedrooms, some upstairs, some in the stables with their own outdoor patio space. You’ll feel romantic in the attic rooms, tucked away in the eaves. Every room is big enough to lounge in; each one has a spoiling en suite (lots have a bath) stocked with Bramley smellies and a few are dog-friendly.
Soak up the sun on the tree-lined terraces or on the picnic benches on the lawn. There’s a sandpit to keep kids entertained and a thriving kitchen garden to inspire you. Walk off lunch with a stomp up to King Alfred’s Tower and around Stourhead.

- In 1949 Longleat House became the first privately owned stately home to open to the public commercially. Built between 1567 and 1580 and home to the Thynn family for 16 generations, Longleat Safari Park opened in 1966 and has never looked back.
- 7 miles from The Bath Arms, Stourhead National Trust Palladian house and world-famous landscape garden is a must for a visit. Explore the 1,072 hectare (2,650 acre) estate where chalk downs, ancient woods and farmland are managed for wildlife.
- Frome town can trace its history back to 685 when St Aldhelm founded a monastery and settlement. 7 miles from The Bath Arms and voted the best place to live in Somerset 2023, it has attracted an array of talent, jewellers, painters, authors and sculptors.
- Hauser & Wirth Somerset is home to a vibrant program of art exhibitions, events, learning activities and artists’ residencies, which connect with the local community and landscape. Occupying a former farmstead it also boasted a well stocked farm shop.

This is the kind of pub you hope to find. A good dose of the traditional with a cosy bar, decent beer and pub grub, but if you are feeling a little more sophisticated - there's an enticing wine list and menu to keep even the most discerning foodies happy. Sitting on one of the terraces on a sunny day, G&T in hand would be hard to beat. If you're staying, even better - simple, stylish rooms await.
