A visit to The Newt in Somerset – Friday 22nd September

A Country Estate, Reimagined

We were delighted with the response to our day-visit to The Newt when we announced it in July, but sadly train strikes conspired against us and the visit needed to be postponed. Not to be deterred, we are back as promised with a new September date, ready to dazzle our Members with an enjoyable jaunt to the countryside as previously planned.

Housed in a glorious, grade-II listed Georgian country house, The Newt is surrounded by magnificent historical gardens and woodland. A working farm, it features elegant rooms, orchards, a cyder barn and much more to discover.

Simply click the link below or scroll down to discover the day’s exceptional epicurean itinerary. But for those who wish to join us, be quick – ticket sales close on Friday 8th September.
