The Newt in Somerset is a working country estate near Bruton, where Hadspen House, a 17th-century house given a Georgian remodel, sits at the heart of gardens, woodland, farmland and cyder orchards. You can sleep in the house itself or in the Farmyard, a sun-facing combe of converted cyder mills, barns and grain stores, with a spa, hammam and sauna on the estate. Dinner is at The Botanical Rooms or Farmyard Kitchen, both cooking with produce from the land around you, and every room comes with its own larder. Dogs aren't allowed (assistance dogs aside), so pets stay at home.




A buggy ride from Hadspen House to dinner in the Farmyard's old threshing barn, where the wood-fired kitchen is open to the room.
