Newton Farm Shop & Cafe
Newton Farm Shop & Cafe is a family-run farm business on the Duchy of Cornwall estate at Newton St Loe, about ten minutes from Bath. It brings together a farm shop, a traditional butchery selling the farm's own pork and beef, and The Parlour, a licensed cafe with a courtyard.

Shop and butchery
The shop stocks seasonal produce sourced locally where possible, alongside wines, beers, ciders and spirits, plus gifts such as homewares, books, toys and cards. The butchery counter is the draw for many regulars: the farm's own pork and beef are sold here, along with other British meat and poultry, and the butchers will cut to order.
The Parlour cafe
The cafe opens seven days a week and covers breakfasts, morning coffee, seasonal lunches, light bites, homemade cakes and Jersey cream teas, with Sunday roasts at the weekend. There is outdoor seating in the courtyard, and a takeaway hatch for ice cream, coffee, sandwiches and cake if you just want something for the road.
Who it suits
With free parking, a children's play area and baby changing, it works well as a family stop on the way in or out of Bath, or as a base for stocking up if you are staying in self-catering nearby. The cattle graze the surrounding estate in summer, so it is a pleasant rural contrast to the city, and Bath's western edge, including the riverside and Bath City Farm, is a short drive away.
