Located over two floors, Farm Shop will sell meat, cheese and charcuterie, wine, cider, honey, and a foraged range produced with ingredients from our 1,000-acre farm in Somerset, alongside products from carefully selected farmers, growers and makers from the South-West. Featuring a dedicated butchery counter, deli, cheese, charcuterie, and other Farm Shop delights, customers will also be able to purchase charcuterie, cheeses from our cheese room, and wines from our cellar to enjoy on the premises.
The first Farm Shop opened at Durslade Farm in Bruton, Somerset in 2020. In 2023 it was awarded Specialist Butcher’s Shop of the Year and many of our fresh and ambient products have won Great Taste awards over the past two years.
