Welcome to Somerton

Somerton of Somerset is not just a wonderfully lyrical name: it’s also one of the most charming towns you’re likely to come across in these British Isles. In fact, the similarity in the names is no coincidence. The county of Somerset actually gets its name from Somerton, giving you an idea of just how big an influence the town has on its wider area. This is also something that works both ways because Somerton, in many ways, feels like a condensed version of so much of what makes its county such a remarkable place to be.

We may as well start with the obvious and that’s all the beautiful green spaces. These shine even brighter thanks to the area’s pleasant climate, which is warmer and sunnier than much of the rest of the country. It’s also situated close enough to the likes of the breath-taking limestone canyons of Cheddar Gorge, the vibrant Quantock Hills and many more must-see sights to make them easily accessible for those taken by a wanderlust.

Of course, Somerton is also a place of great history. This is something which provides the town with so many sensational sights, creating a truly unique place to live. There’s perhaps no better example of this than the main square with its market cross, the likes of which have been around since the late 14th century. It’s something which is iconic to the area and still benefits the modern community to this day.

That is a perfect example of how Somerton utilises the strengths of its past to bolster and create depth in the present day. Its rich heritage can also be seen in the incredible architecture found around the town. All this creates a visual representation of the proud local culture and community.

Speaking of which, just as important are all those practical details which make up everyday living. Here you’ll find plenty of shops, restaurants, pubs and more to fulfil your needs, meaning the beauty of Somerton doesn’t come at the expense of convenience.
