Set on the banks of the River Frome, there's a lot of history to be had in this lovely little market town. The quay is the setting for many traditions and celebrations, such as the annual carnival in July, and make sure you wander round the Old Town Wall walk for a true appreciation of what the place is all about. With many literary connections, it could become the stuff your holiday story is made from - there are not many places where pubs have their own ice cream shop!
