Have you ever noticed how there are a few things that signify autumn is approaching in the countryside? Even before the calendar officially tells you? The mornings begin to feel a little crisper, boots replace your deck shoes, and suddenly a freezer full of something warming for supper sounds like a very good idea. Today, we’re sharing with you a few of the things we’ve been enjoying and noticing recently, from some of our team favourites and everyday essentials to those simple little pleasures that make this time of year so lovely. Welcome to the things we’re loving about September 🍂 It sneaks up on us so quietly but there’s suddenly a point in September when you step outside in the morning and realise summer really is on its way out. Your cold breath can be seen in front of you, the grass holds a heavy dew, and the sunrises are pretty spectacular. Not fully autumn yet, but strong signs were edging there day by day. The mornings are becoming darker, there’s no escaping it (boo!) so a good coffee feels particularly important to help us in the mornings. @twelvebore has become a bit of a favourite around the CWG team, especially when there’s a busy day ahead – you bet the kettle is one of the first things turned on it morning. Good coffee, your favourite mug, and you’re set to go. When the last of the hay gets piled into the barn you know there’s a seasonal shift in the air, but there’s something comforting about everything being tucked away and organised ready for winter. It’s an ordinary country job, one that we do each and every year, but it marks the season rather beautifully. Deck shoes are out, and boots are firmly in. Team CWG have been loving the new Cooper Boots from @ariateurope , practical (and comfy!) enough for muddy mornings but smart enough that you don’t need to change them immediately when you head off to begin the rest of your day. September is the month when we start to remember how much of a friend the freezer can be. A batch of ratatouille here, a stew there, a good old spaghetti bolognaise mix – the opportunities are endless. Knowing you have meals that can be pulled out on a cold evening when nobody fancies

Dimpsey escapes don’t have to wait for the weekend… Here’s how we’d enjoy our time here, midweek style! 📸 @daniel_casson Dimpsey Somerset |Dimpsey Glamping | Dimpsey Retreats | Shepherd Hut Stays | Luxury Getaway | Foodie Breaks | Foodie Getaways | Foodie Stays | Stays in Somerset | Couples Holiday I Couples Getaway | Solo Stays Let’s arrive one evening after work, light the wood burner, and pour ourselves a glass of something nice. We’re feeling really rather at home now. 📸 @top_up_your_happiness The next morning… there’s no need for our usual midweek alarm. We can wake up in our own time, because there’s simply no where else to be. 📸 @daniel_casson Let’s linger over breakfast, no rushing out the door with a piece of toast in one hand and car keys in the other. 📸 @daniel_casson A daytime adventure to one of the gorgeous places surrounding Dimpsey ⛲️ We’re lucky to have a host of @nationaltrust properties near us, alongside quaint Somerset villages, and it only takes a 30min drive to find yourself on the coast. Or perhaps a daytime adventure… to absolutely no where is needed. A few steps to a quiet corner of our hut with a new weekday read will do just fine too. 📸 @georgiana_nyna Lunch will be leisurely, not sat at our desks with a screen in our eyes. A gentle affair, full of good food, good conversation, and time to just soak up the magic of Dimpsey. 📸 @rachelcollinsphoto At some point in our midweek escape we just have to make use of the on-site treatment hut. Join Gilly from @burrowwellness to experience a Dimpsey Ritual and leave feeling truly rested and restored. 📸 @rachelcollinsphoto There will no boring midweek suppers here. Tonight, we’re cooking over fire! Whether you choose a fire pit or wood fired oven as your method of choice, we have plenty of options to make this midweek supper one to remember. From our pizza kits to homereared @beethamfarm produce, this supper will be big on flavour and memories. 📸 @georgiana_nyna Let’s spend the rest of the evening under the stars, not a street light in sight. 📸 @daniel_casson The best part of the week doesn’t have to be the weekend.

Behind the times… ⏰ I just went into my posts to do an August round-up and realised that I had gathered all the July photos together but never captioned and posted them! 🤦‍♀️ So before we rush headlong into an August round-up, this is what my July was like! 📆 August to follow shortly - I feel like this year has whipped by in a flash! ⚡️ Anyone else feeling like that too??

It’s Friday – yay! And today, we simply wanted to take a moment to celebrate one of our favourite past times at Dimpsey – dining outdoors ☀️ Perhaps it’s a long lunch in the garden of one of our wonderful local pubs, or maybe you’re cooking together at your hut, making the most of our fresh @beethamfarm produce and your own outdoor cooking space. Good food, fresh air, somewhere beautiful to sit and, most importantly, nowhere you need to rush off to. Now that sounds like a pretty lovely way to spend a weekend! 📸 @rachelcollinsphoto Dimpsey Somerset |Dimpsey Glamping | Dimpsey Retreats | Shepherd Hut Stays | Luxury Getaway | Foodie Breaks | Foodie Getaways | Foodie Stays | Stays in Somerset | Couples Holiday I Couples Getaway | Solo Stays

Admiration for the next generation of UK farmers. Farming in the UK today is not for the faint hearted. 100+ hours a week in all weathers. Legal Red Tape all over the place to understand and manage and a changing world and planet to throw curved ball’s for fun. Rarely a day off let alone a holiday, it’s a lifestyle that attracts few from our younger generation into a full time career today despite Agri Unis & education being super popular. James is one of the minority though and in recent years has diligently and slowly been growing and developing his herd of beef cattle that graze upon some historical land in Somerset. I’ll let @beethamfarm tell their own story, they do it far better than I can and in their own words (please do follow) but recently I was tasked with delivering their visual story, so far. I love this simple shot of James with some of his cattle in the evening light and was delighted to see it’s been out in force within their printed marketing material lately. If you can’t feel the story here - do I even know you?! I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again, their beef is so tasty and being produced on the land in a very carefully monitored and respectful way. That’s clear in how the meat looks and tastes too. Thank you James for trusting me with this huge project of late. _____ Brand Photography | Brand Photos | Your Story | Farming Life | Beef Farming | Back British | Support Local

There’s nothing better than watching lambs in the field… 🐑 Unless of course, you’re sitting on the top step of Hither Hut, mug of tea in hand - that’s the cherry on top! 🫖 Do you fancy a stint watching the flock over the summer? Hit the link in our profile above 😘

What a weekend! The house and grounds humming softly with life and lovely people. One group here for a surprise hen weekend, drifting between slow mornings with the animals and long lunches at Otter Valley Ice Cream & Field Kitchen beneath the spring skies. @ottervalley Another familiar and much-loved face too — Alice, who I’ve had the joy of getting to know over the last few years of photoshoots here — returning to celebrate her birthday with a beautiful circle of friends. @alice.roberton Between it all, the rhythm of sauna and pond sessions weaving through the days for holiday guests and local residents alike. Warm cedar heat. Cool dark water. Steam curling upwards into the air. @driftwood_mobile_sauna_uk Last night I wandered up through the lanes to Dimpsey for this month’s ladies supper club hosted by Emma. Laughter and conversation spilling late into the night, and the most comforting bolognese cooked by her husband using beef raised on their own land — the sort of meal that feels deeply rooted, generous, and full of care. @emmawarren_1 @dimpsey_glamping @beethamfarm And today, perhaps the sweetest ending to the weekend of all: two perfect little piglets arriving home. Especially precious to us because they come from our first sow, Spot — the pig who quietly started this whole journey. We were there beside her through her first two litters, and these tiny souls are from her third. Monica and Gretchen are now tucked into their paddock beneath the trees, already gentle and trusting, soft-nosed and curious, as though they have always belonged here.

We don’t need trending audio when our Heritage Holding sounds like this… The wind moving through the trees, birdsong carried on the breeze, and our four-legged friends grazing their way through the first fresh blades of spring. There is no need for anything more, the simple sounds of the Somerset countryside will always be enough. This could be your weekend soundtrack too… Stay with us at Dimpsey and immerse yourself in the rhythm of the countryside 🩶 Dimpsey Glamping | Dimpsey Retreats | Shepherd Hut Stays | Luxury Getaway | Stays in Somerset | Couples Holiday I Couples Getaway | Solo Stays | Sounds of nature | Somerset set sounds | Heritage Holding
