The Newt in Somerset is an independent hotel which opened near Bruton in Somerset last August with 23 bedrooms. It is based in Hadspen House, a 17th century Grade II-listed country house which nestles amongst gardens, orchards, lakes and woodlands in the Somerset countryside. Since its opening the Newt in Somerset has garnered near universal acclaim.
This summer The Newt in Somerset is set to open The Farmyard. This is a former dairy farm on the estate which has been converted into hotel accommodation.
The Farmyard will have 17 bedrooms plus a swimming pool and dining facilities. It will be separate from the main Newt in Somerset Hotel.
The Newt in Somerset is close to Castle Cary station with its direct rail service to Bristol and London Paddington.
