SOMERSET
Join us for a weekend of celebrations in Somerset, beginning in the city of Bath on Friday lunchtime, before heading to Yarlington Lodge - a Grade II listed country house in the rolling hills of the South Somerset countryside- which will be our home for the weekend.
Saturday brings a full day of fun, including the opportunity to enjoy the wide array of activities available at Yarlington Lodge, a long lunch at the Three Horseshoes village pub and an evening of dancing with a BBQ under the late spring skies. We close slowly on Sunday with breakfast baps, Bloody Marys and a late morning departure.
You can find the weekend itinerary and essential details below. We hope to see you there!

The Three Horseshoes
The Three Horseshoes in Batcombe is a beautifully restored 17th century village inn, tucked between the medieval church and village hall in one of Somerset's most unspoilt villages. Brought to life by celebrated London chef Margot Henderson — of Rochelle Canteen fame — and featured in the Michelin Guide, it is a pub that lets its ingredients do the talking, with a daily-changing menu built entirely around local Somerset produce. 20 mins from Yarlington, transport provided.
