Taunton is a perfect cottage holiday destination. It has charming stone and Tudor architecture, there is also a history stretching over 100 years including a 10th century monastery. It offers the Orchard Shopping Centre and plenty of other places to shop and eat. As well as this, Taunton boasts museums and parks, one of which has held the Taunton Flower Show for over 150 years. The Quantock and Blackdown Hills Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty are easily accessible, as well as the Dartmoor and Exmoor National Parks further afield. The coast is around 20 miles away, with Weston-super-Mare a further 10 miles away but is well worth the journey with its great range of activities.

Somerset offers 3 areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty - the Quantock, Mendip and Blackdown Hills. Lose yourself in the glory of nature, take a ride on a steam train, visit a traditional farmer's' market or explore your mystical side at Glastonbury.
