The Business:

Walnut Barn Estate prides themselves on offering unforgettable experiences in their accommodation, and just by looking through their website and social media, you can see the care that has gone into each accommodation unit to ensure they have a unique feel.

Walnut Barn Estate is in an Area of Outstanding Beauty, meaning there is also plenty to see around the accommodation site- beautiful landscapes and wildlife, lambs, chickens and even ostriches!

In the surrounding Somerset area, guests are close to Weston-Super-Mare, for those looking for exciting seaside town adventures, or if you are looking for something more quiet and rural, Cheddar Gorge and the Mendip Hills are close by. Be sure to take a look at their list of their recommended local walks and cycle routes when planning your stay.

The Accommodation:

Guests can choose to have a more traditional glamping experience in the quirky, rustic “Lady’s Well Shepherds Hut” and “Orchard View Yurt”. If you prefer a rustic cottage or a lodge with a modern twist- “Olivia’s Roost”, “Lottie’s Lodge” or “Cider Barn” could be perfect for your holiday!

For families or large groups of friends, “The Old Dairy” or “The Big Oak Barn” are perfect options, catering for up to 18 people. An excellent choice for family gatherings, hen parties or stag dos!

Walnut Barn Estate is also home to two of our BBQ cabins! In fact, the owner loved his own BBQ cabin from our sister company Arctic Cabins so much, that “he insisted the celebration houses had their own too”.

When staying at “The Old Dairy” or “The Big Oak Barn”, guests can enjoy spending time cooking in a Scandinavian inspired BBQ hut! Bring the pool party vibes with a traditional BBQ and relax in a hot tub in summer, or cosy up and toast marshmallows together in the winter! In fact, we were told that when guests’ stays are over, they “leave wanting to buy one”!
