Somerset, England’s picturesque countryside, is even more inviting with the arrival of The Pig Near Bath. Whether you stop by for dinner or stay overnight, you’ll be welcomed by the charming display of brightly colored wellies lining the gravel drive and the entrance hall.
The menu changes frequently to reflect the day’s harvest, with dishes created from produce gathered on the grounds. A fan favorite that often remains on the menu is the Pig’s Apple Pie served with Somerset brandy and walnut ice cream. The property supports its kitchen with extensive vegetable beds, greenhouses, fruit trees, a smokehouse and a wildflower orchard. Chickens roam the grounds, pigs are kept on site and deer may be seen strolling nearby.
Accommodations are sumptuously comfortable and decorated in The Pig’s signature relaxed, shabby-chic style. Room types include Snug Rooms in the main house, Comfy and Comfy Luxe Rooms, and secluded Hideaways tucked within the gardens. Many rooms feature wood-burning stoves, monsoon showers and freestanding baths. Every room has a larder stocked with snacks and drinks.
Wellness and relaxation are offered in a converted potting shed that serves as a treatment sanctuary, where original wooden walls and floors create a peaceful atmosphere and Bamford products are used for facials and massages. As one of a collection of four “restaurants with rooms” located in distinctive settings, The Pig Near Bath sits conveniently for visits to both Bath and nearby Bristol.
