Somerton

Somerton perfectly demonstrates that change is not always for the better. This Somerset town is charm itself, with a pristine market place bordered by an elegant town hall, pretty alms houses and an historic court house. If you’re looking for modern facilities like Starbucks, multistorey car parks and chain stores, you’ll be disappointed; if bucolic beauty is more your scene, you’ll be delighted.
