The village itself is wonderfully welcoming, with a community-run shop and post office stocking local produce and fresh pastries, and the award-winning Lord Poulett Arms, a 17th-century thatched inn renowned for exceptional food, local ales, and an atmosphere that feels like stepping back in time.

Jubilee Wood, a secure dog-walking park on the edge of the village, is ideal for guests travelling with pets, while the Cricket Club grounds, just a 90-second walk away, often host summer matches. A scenic 40-minute walk leads to The Feed Station in Merriott, a favourite among walkers and cyclists for hearty breakfasts and great coffee. Nearby Wayford Woods offers peaceful woodland walks for all ages.
Food lovers are spoiled for choice. Enjoy field-to-fork dining at The Barrington Boar, modern Somerset cooking at Holm, or award-winning cider and live music at North Down Orchard’s Cider Barn. Perry’s Cider Brewery & Museum is another local gem.
