Here, the Somerset countryside stretches wide around you, and days take on a slower, easier rhythm. Mornings might mean coffee in the garden before driving into Frome to wander its cobbled streets and independent market. Afternoons can be spent walking to Cley Hill, visiting Hauser & Wirth for world-class art, or tasting cider at The Newt. Evenings are for gathering back at the farmhouse for lighting the firepit, swapping stories under star-bright skies, or relaxing between the sauna and ice bath.
