The Creamery
Return to the Golden Age of travel this summer at The Creamery, opening at Castle Cary railway station in June. A 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.
Gather & Grow: Regeneration
This Summer we are launching our first Gather & Grow festival. With a focus on regeneration, we have put together a stellar line-up of speakers and chefs to ignite important conversations and connect with our surroundings and each other. The hope is that some of these ideas will resonate; creating a space for something wonderful to germinate and grow. A three day event, each morning will begin with a wellness session, followed by a children’s activity hour, before an inspiring series of evening talks. On Friday and Saturday we will close the day with a garden feast cooked over fire, and on Sunday we will finish with energising refreshments and music. Follow link below for more details, save the dates and book your spot!

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.
