Autumn Daze
As long, light filled days give way to misty mornings, we are looking ahead to our favourite season for events. We’re celebrating the arrival of Autumn Equinox with a Harvest Supper surrounded by the spoils of the Kitchen Garden and Deep South Somerset BBQ big weekend over 20 - 22 September. Apple antics begin in earnest during October as we spotlight the joy of apple harvest, culminating in an activity-packed Apple Day Weekend over 19 - 20 October. Coming in hot again this year, members are invited to soak in the spectacle of Fire Night on 8 November; bidding our apple trees a peaceful sleep and welcoming the winter cold. Sign up for our weekly Newt News to be the first to hear about what’s on.
The Creamery
Return to the Golden Age of travel this summer at The Creamery, our new dairy and restaurant serving hearty British food within a complex of restored and reimagined Edwardian buildings.
As we venture outside the bounds of The Newt in Somerset gardens for first time, we look forward to welcoming locals and travellers to our latest addition..jpg)

Great Garden Escape
Don't miss the train... Run away next summer and experience all things Somerset. From April 2024 we will be embarking once again on a First Class adventure, whisking you from London Paddington to the heart of the West Country. Explore picturesque gardens and ancient woodland, discover the art of cyder making and enjoy the finest fare plucked from the soil beneath your feet. Finally relax back into your seat and savour the perfect afternoon tea, as the miles fly by and we return you to the city.

Dine at The Botanical Rooms
Enjoy elegant and seasonal dining, inspired by and gathered from your surroundings. We invite you to feast on estate vegetables, the choicest cuts from the salt room and dayboat fish from the Dorset coast. Savour the tasting menu, paired with Fine Cyder or something special from the house cellar.
