“The Shrubbery Hotel offers a warm and relaxed atmosphere and is much sought after by those wishing to enjoy the comforts and ambience of the English country.” The English country? Presumably that means ‘countryside’, which in this part of Somerset too often means an ‘ambience’ of shooting birds and chasing foxes. Which brings us to the Shrubbery hosting the Seavington Hunt Ball with its nausea-inducing claim of ‘Nothing beats a Seavington Hunt Party’. The ‘party’ was earlier this year. We have to wonder how the Shrubbery views the Seavington (which is kenneled just around the corner) now that they have been filmed blatantly killing a fox before one of its riders scoops up the body and throws the poor animal unceremoniously into a nearby stream? If they invite the hunt back for another party, we will have the answer…
