Local Area
Fun-filled, high-energy active break or relaxing in tranquil surroundings, you’ll find the perfect combination in Somerset.
Miles of unspoilt coastline, beautiful countryside and city pleasures too – Somerset offers something for everyone. You’ll find a superb array of visitor attractions in Somerset.
Weston-Super-Mare, Minehead and Burnham-on-Sea boast family friendly, sandy beaches, traditional seaside amusements and great water sports, and for a more dramatic coastal experience, there’s Exmoor National Park.
This is Lorna Doone country, a stunning backdrop for horse riding, walking and canoeing. The Quantock Hills and Somerset Levels (both areas of outstanding natural beauty) are great for cycling and there’s abseiling and caving at Cheddar Gorge – the less active might prefer a guided tour of Wookey Hole.
Visit Bath for the elegance of its Georgian architecture, fascinating Roman remains and great shopping, and be sure to take a trip to Wells, England’s smallest cathedral city. At Glastonbury, there’s the legendary Tor, and Longleat provides a great day out for all ages.

| Ideal location for those wanting to get away from it all. The cottage was well equipped and at a high standard. There is no mobile phone signal whilst at the site or in the immediate surrounding areas so you really are left alone. Ideal if taking a complete break from work and normal life, its like stepping back in time before mobile phones. |
