Things to Do Nearby

An art lovers dream! The gallery in Somerset welcomes different artists throughout the year to showcase their exhibitions. Just next door to the gallery you can fuel up with the delicious tastes of Italy in their restaurant, Da Costa (pre-booking recommended). Or, if you fancy something quick, why not pop into Durslade farm shop for a homemade sandwich, soup or sausage roll.

Located outside of the town of Castle Carey lies the gardens of the impressive The Newt in Somerset. Spend the day exploring the luxury estate from tree top walks to the Roman villa experience, to lunches overlooking the apple trees.

Pop over the border into Wiltshire to discover one of the National Trust's finest properties. If you are looking for a place to wander after a pub lunch then Stourhead is the perfect destination. Meander through the beautiful gardens, climb up to Alfreds tower or take a peek in the Palladian House.

Just down the road from the vineyard is the village of Ditcheat, home to champion horse trainer, Paul Nichols.

Why not spend a day at Wincanton Racecourse and enjoy the thrill of the races.

Within half an hour of the vineyard you will stumble across market towns such as Castle Carey, Bruton and Frome. 

Castle Carey is a real bustling town with its weekly markets, delicious deli and a selection of independent shops. 

Bruton has become well known for its creativity, food and art scene, with popular spots including the famous gallery Hauser and Wirth, OSIP, Briar and a range of beautiful interior shops. 

The streets of Frome are a hive of activity and home to a wide range of independent shops, restaurants and cafes. The monthly Independent Market on the first Sunday of the month is well worth a visit. Frome is the perfect spot to grab a coffee and a pastry and watch the world go by.

If you are looking for the perfect spot to warm up or lounge in a beer garden, we have plenty of pubs within a short distance of the vineyard. The Manor House Inn has recently opened its doors again and is a stone’s throw from us in the village of Ditcheat. Indulge in their hearty pub classics and local beers…. Don’t forget to try their famous pies!
