Longleat House

Highlight • Monument

Perhaps one of the most famous stately homes in the UK, Longleat is an impressive Elizabethan prodigy house. Longleat is set amongst 1,000 acres of parkland, home to the first safari park outside Africa.

Construction on the house began in 1568 on the site of a priory which had burnt down. Originally designed for Sir John Thynn, the estate remains in the same family today. The flamboyant artist Alexander Thynn and his son Ceawilin Thynn currently live in the house.

You can visit Longleat from 10am - 5pm daily. It's well worth exploring the safari and other attractions as well. Tickets for adults cost £17.00 online. You can buy them here: longleat.co.uk

The Garden Cafe, Frome

Highlight • Cafe

Lovely vegetarian cafe in Frome. Have an inside area and deli plus a gorgeous garden area. Plenty of space for bike parking and they are happy for you to take bikes through to the garden. The food is all vegetarian with plenty of vegan and gluten free options. Would highly recommend any of the burgers or tapas. Also the cakes are generously portioned. Coffee is locally roasted in Bristol and the beer and wine selection is mainly local and vegan too.
