A PLACE WORTH KNOWING

Worth making a table the destination

Old beams, striking interiors and British cooking shaped by the pub’s own farm, in the small village of Woolsery.

The Farmers Arms brings a considered sense of style to a village pub without losing the appeal of a drink by the fire. Its restored historic building opens into a lighter dining room, while the garden offers another place to settle when the weather is kind. The kitchen draws on The Collective’s Birch Farm, with vegetables, fruit and rare-breed meats helping to shape seasonal British menus. There are details to notice all around the room, from the pottery to the playful artwork. Book a table, leave room for a proper meal and let this small corner of Woolsery become the reason for the journey.

The lovely little details

  • Restored historic village pub.
  • Seasonal produce from its own Birch Farm.
  • Dining room, bar and garden tables.
