A stay in Bruton is top of the holiday staycations in England. Just a pleasant walk away from our glamping site at Hadspen lies the fascinating little town of Bruton. Dubbed ‘the new Notting Hill’ by Vogue, it’s packed with unusual features and interest, right from the landmark 16th Dovecote that sits on a hilltop above to the picturesque River Brue that winds through the heart of town.
Two top boarding schools, both with sixth forms, lend a vibrant collegiate air to this pretty place set in the rolling Somerset countryside.
Explore the narrow alleyways that link the High Street with the riverside walk and indulge yourself in a plethora of sophisticated shops and galleries – not to mention award-winning restaurants.
