The incredible county of Somerset is full of spectacular
landscapes, unique heritage, ancient myths, graceful towns and
delectable local food and drink, all waiting to be discovered on a
weekend getaway or a short midweek break.
As well as a coastline of inviting, sandy beaches, it boasts an
impressive three Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty - such a
sublime landscape deserves to be experienced head on. Why not cycle
in the Mendips, ramble along the Coleridge Way or ride on horseback
in Exmoor National Park? Stroll through the rocky magnificence of
Cheddar Gorge, not forgetting to stock up on supplies of the
delicious, world-renowned cheese that the gorge gave its name to,
along with a little local cider to wash it down with!
Somerset is a place of history and evocative myths. Climb to the
top of Glastonbury Tor, the mysterious and iconic hill crowned with
a stone tower and shrouded in mystery; wander the streets of
elegant Bath, with its
famous, Roman spa springs and immaculate Georgian architecture;
admire the splendour of Wells Cathedral in the smallest city in
England.
