Somerset is possibly the most diverse of the south western counties, with the rugged landscape of the Cheddar Gorge and the Mendip Hills, beautiful coastline, the ancient moorland of Exmoor and the jewel in the crown, the exquisite regency city of Bath.
The great outdoors is so accessible in Somerset with walking, climbing, caving, cycling and riding all an option in varied terrain and a perfect way to really appreciate the landscape. Peppered with picturesque villages and historic market towns, there are plenty of farmhouse bed and breakfasts and mellow stone cottages to tempt the visitor and no visit to Somerset would be complete without a trip to Bath with its stunning eighteenth century architecture and Roman Baths.
Somerset has a laid back vibe, rural and pastoral but it’s not all about being down on the farm and cider-making, home to the world famous Glastonbury Festival, Somerset knows how to party.
