Things To Do

What do you fancy doing whilst in Somerset? Maybe the limestone caves of Wookey Hole one day, shopping in the delightful Clarks Village, or perhaps something a little more active – walking up Brean Down, hiking across the Quantock Hills or wandering around Cheddar Gorge & Caves. Somerset has a variety of fantastic walking spots with delightful fauna and varied wildlife.

Or if heritage and history is more your thing you’ll love the historic houses, castles and museums dotted around Somerset.  Discover Somerset’s heritage through the Museum in Somerset based in nearby Taunton, and let it take you through the timeline of Somerset – from the age of the dinosaurs and prehistoric man to the modern age. Maybe the next day you could visit the fortified castle of Dunster Castle, and take wander around its beautiful gardens and fauna. If picturesque houses in a renaissance style impresses you, definitely come visit the 15th century estate Montacute House. Nearby we also have the historic village of Glastonbury, with its cobbled streets and alternative shopping market. Be sure to climb the Glastonbury Tor on a clear day for one of Somerset’s most iconic views.

Don’t forget some of Somerset’s other iconic tourist attractions; Longleat Safari Park, Wells Cathedral, Stourhead, Glastonbury Abbey and Tarr Steps are locations you definitely do not want to miss.
