Hauser and Wirth, Bruton, Somerset


Miles away from anywhere, down winding roads but worth it... Beautifully restored barns as an uber gallery, reclaimed Dieter Roth-inspired bar and super, lovely cafe full of art and out the back a bleak landscape by the Oudolf, of High Line fame. We grabbed giant umbrellas, pondered a surrealist clocks, grassy islands in the path and then lay down on local sheepskin rugs and gazed at a trippy take on local farming, thanks to Pipilotti Rist.

Everything is going to be alright, as it says in neon, though the clotted cream could be less drippy.
