Days Out and Short Breaks that match your search

Top 5 West Country Walks

Grab your walking boots and blow the cobwebs away.

Fireside Breaks

Storm watching, star gazing, Dorset rocks and Devon stones in the South West this winter.

Top 3 Places to Unwind

Take time to pause. Visit our Top 3 slices of West Country wilderness.

It’s just a quick flit from some of the country’s big cities, yet venture into the Somerset countryside and it feels as though you’ve completely dropped off the 21st Century map. The Quantock Hills, the Somerset Levels, Exmoor - these are places where the ‘real’ world of speeding traffic, stress overloads and continual rush has barely dented daily life, and you’ll find your shoulders dropping and your forehead uncreasing with each hour that passes here.
