Somerset Stories serves up a treat, as we meet the Somerset born chef who has opened critically acclaimed restaurants in London, and has made a remarkable return to his Westcountry roots with the opening of Holm in South Petherton. Nicholas Balfe brings a love for seasonality and local produce to the restaurant, which has charmed locals and visitors alike. Holm is inspired by nature and its surroundings, and the team is driven by provenance, sustainability and warm hospitality.Nicholas is also a firm believer in creating a progressive team environment.  Challenging the legacy that the food and drink industry has had in the past. We met in February 2023 and recorded our conversation on site at Holm.
