About the area
Castle Cary is described by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner, the eminent architectural historian, as Somerset‘s prettiest town, set in beautiful, unspoilt countryside. The town is characterised by period buildings constructed of the distinctive, honey-coloured stone for which the area is well known. It remains a delightful small market town with several traditional shops and boutiques within the Conservation Area, in which a policy of strict planning control operates to prevent inappropriate development. These shops cater for most everyday needs whilst Shaftesbury, Glastonbury, Street, Wells, Frome, Wincanton, Sherborne and Yeovil are all close by and Salisbury, Taunton, Bath and Bristol are within easy driving distance.
The Newt in Somerset, just outside Castle Cary, is home to beautiful countryside walks set in the grounds of a Georgian country estate. Within the estate are a Hotel & Spa, a Farm shop, restaurants and a house & garden shop. Local residents benefit from reduced membership.
