Following its successful debut in 2025, The Cowshed by Homewood makes its return to If Opera for a second year, bringing an immersive dining experience back to Church Farm.
This season, the experience remains rooted in a celebration of Mediterranean-inspired, fire-cooked cuisine. Guests are invited to journey through a menu that celebrates Somerset’s finest produce, with locally sourced meats expertly flame-seared on the Somerset grill. Complementing these bold flavours are vibrant, fresh small plates harvested from our very own No-Dig Kitchen Garden, all paired with a signature wine selection curated by our esteemed partners.
Book your table (which is yours for the evening) and enjoy a delicious menu of locally sourced produce before an evening of spectacular music.
“The Cowshed is nothing less than 5*, great decor, delicious food, amazing service!”
“Thoroughly enjoyed a balmy Sunday afternoon/evening in a beautiful setting. Delicious food courtesy of Cowshed Homewood.
Delightful touch to sip Taittinger on arrival…”
The experience begins with a welcome glass of Champagne, followed by generous sharing platters, brimming with hand-selected produce that showcase the best of Somerset. As the evening unfolds, the Somerset grill takes over, expertly flame-searing and smoking locally sourced meats to perfection, enhancing their rich, natural flavours.
Small plates take inspiration from Homewood’s very own No-Dig Kitchen Garden, bringing vibrant, homegrown ingredients to the table. To elevate every bite, a carefully curated selection of wines from distinguished partners will be available to purchase and offer the perfect pairing, ensuring a truly unforgettable dining experience under the open sky.
For our 2026 season and thirtieth anniversary, we are delighted to partner with Taittinger and bring The Taittinger Bar to The Cowshed by Homewood.
As one of the few remaining family-owned Champagne houses, Taittinger’s commitment to craftsmanship and culture makes it the perfect partner for our discerning festival audiences who value both tradition and innovation.
