THE Langford Inn, a historic village pub in Noth Somerset, has been named among the 'Best UK foodie breaks for autumn' by The Guardian.

The report, published last Saturday (September 28), highlights 20 of the best places in the UK for a seasonal getaway with menus "as enticing as the scenery".

Located on the edge of the Mendip Hills, south of Bristol (with Cheddar Gorge and Wookey Hole just a short drive away), the inn, managed by Butcombe Brewing Co, prides itself on its "excellent rooms, food and drink".

The article describes the recently renovated pub and its guest quarters as "striking a perfect balance between smart and cosy, with no shortage of comfortable corners where you can sit with a newspaper or a pint".

The article also says: "This pub in Lower Langford village has been serving weary travellers since the 17th century. Today’s visitors are more likely to be looking for respite from the nearby M5 than a change of horses – just as well as the stable block of this handsome red-stone building has long since been converted into stylish bedrooms."

Adding that: "Most guest rooms are in the former stable block, accessed via the pretty pub garden, and come with nice touches such as homemade biscuits and Bramley toiletries. The Blagdon Suite has exposed stone walls, a kingsize bed and mezzanine with sofabed – perfect for families."

When talking about the food, The Guardian article also says: "The home of cheddar cheese, Thatchers cider and Yeo Valley dairy, this corner of north Somerset has some serious foodie credentials.

"The menu makes the most of local and seasonal produce. On a recent visit, crispy pig cheek terrine with burnt apple ketchup and Ston Easton farm lamb belly were among the starters. A delicate main course of stone bass with cider-braised fennel top was just light enough to justify delving into a decadent dessert of sticky figgy pudding with cinnamon ice-cream."

The Langford Inn has been awarded two AA Rosette Awards and its menus source local drinks, seasonal produce and ingredients.

With mains from £18, doubles from £130 in the B&B, The Guardian article insists this inn should be included on your list of must-visit UK foodie destinations this autumn.
