AREA: 

Castle Cary is one of the most attractive of Somerset's market towns. It is tucked away in a secluded spot a few miles off the A303, the golden stone of Castle Cary and Ansford exudes a warm glow complemented by its glorious setting in the South Somerset countryside and its friendly inhabitants.

The town has many attractive historic buildings including its 19th century Market House and the thatched George Hotel. The main street, stretching down to the old Horse Pond, is full of individual high-quality shops, delicatessens, cafes and restaurants. Tuesday is market day, when fish, bread and organic vegetables are sold on the cobbles in front of the Market House. If you're walking, rambling, or simply looking for a quiet time in the countryside, Cary can provide it. The Leland Trail , the Macmillan Way and Monarch's Way all pass near the town, as does the route to Glastonbury for many festival goers.

The town is noted for its high quality shops - grocers, outfitters, books, antiques and local produce. There are several inns in the town, wonderful restaurants and tearooms making it perfect destination for a relaxing country break.

The Newt in Somerset is a working country estate with acres of farmland, woodland, orchards and gardens. Their gardens are open daily for visitors to explore and enjoy our restaurants, farm shops, Cyder Cellar and The Story of Gardening experience. Nestled within the grounds lies Hadspen House – a Georgian family home, now a luxury hotel and spa offering guests a place to delight in the joys of country living. The Newt is a very sought after local attraction that generates numerous visitors throughout the year and helps drive local traffic through to neighbouring businesses in Castle Cary.
