Visit
Durslade Farm is the home to Roth Bar as well as Farm Shop, Hauser & Wirth Somerset, Oudolf Field and Durslade Farmhouse. Head to the bar for a drink and a snack and then visit the art gallery, garden and pick up some treats to take home at Farm Shop.
Farm Shop
At the entrance to the old farmyard you will find Farm Shop. Full of seasonal produce including lamb and beef from our farm, foraged products made with ingredients collected from our estate by in-house forager Kenny, and produce sourced from local farmers, growers and makers who share Farm Shop’s values.
Passionate about promoting and sharing local talent, supporting small projects with big futures and working with established ones to create special products that you can only find in the Farm Shop.

Da Costa
Da Costa is named for and inspired by Artfarm co-founder Iwan Wirth’s maternal grandfather, who originated from the small mountainous village of Rivamonte Agordino in the Veneto region of Northern Italy. He emigrated to Switzerland in the early 20th century, where he opened a restaurant much loved for its simple, honest fare.
A century later, and some 800 miles from that first restaurant, Da Costa continues this glorious culinary adventure, using freshly grown, seasonal ingredients from our walled garden and the surrounding area to create dishes blending the best of both worlds: quintessential Englishness with Italian culinary flair.

Phyllida Barlow. unscripted
The work of Phyllida Barlow (1944 – 2023) takes over Hauser & Wirth Somerset in a celebration of the British artist’s transformative approach to sculpture, marking the 10th anniversary of the arts centre that was inaugurated by Barlow’s solo exhibition ‘GIG’ in 2014.
‘Phyllida Barlow. unscripted’ explores the evolution of Barlow’s formal and expressive vocabulary, bringing together singular sculptures, installations, studio maquettes and drawings from her extensive career, some of which are on public view for the first time.
Alongside the exhibition, Hauser & Wirth Learning has launched a new Education Lab, ‘Open Art School’, in partnership with Bath Spa University. Taking Barlow’s life-long engagement with arts education, the Education Lab draws on the latest thinking within creative pedagogy and experimental learning.

Oudolf created a garden that is timeless throughout the changing seasons, providing a sanctuary for visitors to slow down and savour moments within nature at their own pace. At the top of Oudolf Field sits the Radić Pavilion, designed by Chilean architect Smiljan Radić, unveiled at the Serpentine Gallery, London in 2014.
