The Bath Arms, Longleat Estate, Somerset, UK

So much fun to photograph the beautiful Bath Arms at Longleat owned by The Beckford Group recently.

The pubs offers the kind of reassuring, ‘get your battery back up to 100 per cent’ break that you leave feeling truly buoyed. They achieve this by selecting the friendliest staff from the area, ensuring the pub inspires warm fellowship between locals and minibreakers, and by plying you with top worldly wines and local brews with a good head on them.

Established in 1736, The Bath Arms is a traditional yet stylish family-friendly inn located on the stunning Longleat Estate in Wiltshire, just over two hours from London, thirty minutes from Bath and a very short drive from the safari park.

And, if you’ve had one too many Butcombes or slugs of the hotel’s own Horning Ale, they’ll spark you back up with a free Bloody Mary come breakfast. Its antiquity has bestowed plenty of character, with the odd creaky floorboard, wonkily shaped room and heritage trees in the garden; but rooms with a mod-rustic look and elevated country dining gently modernise it.
