A characterful Victorian stable reimagined for laid-back stays in the Somerset countryside
Key Highlights
- The building's original character has been kept firmly in view. Exposed stone and old oak beams sit alongside mineral finishes, colour and contemporary furnishings, giving Bruton Lodge an identity beyond the usual country conversion.
- The kitchen and dining room make staying in particularly appealing. A marble island and well-equipped kitchen lead into a tapestry-hung dining space with a walnut table for eight.
- Each of the three bedrooms has its own bathroom, while two can be configured as either super-kings or twins, making the lodge particularly adaptable for families and groups of friends.
- The private walled garden gives guests their own outdoor space, with direct access from the lodge and a stone terrace for meals outside.

Bruton Lodge is a converted Victorian stable with plenty of its original character still in place. Exposed stone, old oak beams and flagstone floors sit alongside richer colour, tactile fabrics and contemporary furnishings, creating a country home that feels considered without being overly polished.
The vaulted living room is an easy place to settle in, with comfortable seating gathered around the log burner. Next door, the kitchen centres around a marble island, with an AEG double oven and Smeg fridge for those planning to cook properly. Meals can move through to the dining room, where an antique tapestry and long walnut table create a relaxed setting for up to eight.
There are three individually designed ensuite bedrooms, all with Vispring mattresses, with two offering the flexibility of super-king or twin beds. An additional sofa bed allows the lodge to sleep up to eight guests.
Outside, the private walled garden has a stone terrace for breakfasts, lunches and evenings outdoors. A large private gym adds another useful dimension to a stay, while underfloor heating and the log burner make Bruton Lodge equally appealing when Somerset calls for a weekend spent mostly indoors.
- Bruton Lodge sleeps six guests in its three main beds, with space for up to eight guests using the sofa bed in the Render Room.
- The Garden Room and Ochre Room can each be configured as either a super-king or twin beds.
- Marley, a very friendly dog, sometimes wanders over to say hello. If you’re not comfortable around dogs, just let us know and we’ll make sure he’s kept away while you’re staying with us.
