The Experience
It’s oh so cosy walking in here, with antique furniture, interesting artwork and flickering candlelight, rugs on wooden or slate floors, wood-burners or open fires, a collection of pewter mugs and decanters – this has been a coaching inn since 1865, so you’re breathing in history. Jaek Kelly is at the helm in the kitchen where the menu is shaped by the seasonal South West larder: local game, farm-reared meats, Cornish day boat fish and locally grown vegetables. Try their own Hare Ale with your food, or something else tasty from a local brewery.
Sleep it all off in fine bedrooms (some in the main building, others in the Coach House) with Siberian goose down duvets, rich fabrics, huge roll-top baths and a handy larder of treats. Spend balmy days in the sunny garden.
Wake to scrumptious breakfasts – try local chalk stream trout with perfectly cooked scrambled eggs on toast, or if you need it, help yourself to a bracing Bloody Mary.

Location
The neighbourhood
You're in the heart of the village of Maiden Bradley with houses on either side, an interesting church with 12th-century roots, and a community shop. The inn is a good spot from which to explore Bath or the trendy small towns of Bruton and Frome. Stourhead is just three miles down the road, and a gentle ramble across fields will take you to the Bath Arms on the edge of the Longleat Estate.
Local points of interest from Charlie Luxton, Matt Greenlees & Dan Brod
- Frome Independent Market is an award-winning, free destination street market held on the first Sunday of each month from March to December. It showcases the best artisan produce from independent craftspeople, makers and food producers.

- Explore the world-famous 18th-century landscape garden and Palladian mansion at Stourhead.
- In the village, you'll find Paul Hughes Fine Arts, displaying juxtaposing archaeology, modern masters, and contemporary art, all housed in a small chapel.
- Hauser & Wirth is home to a vibrant program of exhibitions, events and artist residencies, which connect with the local community and landscape.
