Nestling in a pretty valley on the western side of the Quantock Hills, Meadowsweet Farm in the hamlet of Newton dates back to medieval times. The farm & the 4 self catering holiday cottages are set in 30 acres of meadows & woodland over which visitors are free to wander. There are picturesque & nostalgic views of the West Somerset Steam Railway & hens roam the farmyard providing fresh free range eggs for sale.

Steep paths from the village lead to the top ridge of the Quantock Hills with breath taking views.
