Wow, we definitely recommend this place. It's owned by the Hauser & Wirth so there are a lot of art exhibitions. The 'Tomahawk' steak is a dream

Ilminster is a beautiful small rural village. It has loads of character, lanes to explore and most importantly a character borne out of the local traders. It does not look like, or feel like, mst other towns that have been overwhelmed with national shops - thank goodness.
I recommend visiting Bonners the Butchers. Clinton will always have a huge welcoming smile and his meat is all local and traceable.
