Somerset
Somerset is dairy cows in lush water-meadows, huge rolling cornfields, immense views, dark chocolate ploughed fields, luxuriant cottage gardens (roses), orchards, and the hedgerows alive with songbirds. In the Vale of Taunton, between Exmoor, the Quantocks and the Blackdown Hills, is some of the richest farmland in England, and wonderfully unspoilt and peaceful. Taunton (two terrific church towers and good county cricket ground), Wellington (good looking small town) and Milverton (extremely pretty large village) are its main centres. To the north are the limestone Mendip Hills, splendid for walking, containing caves and Cheddar Gorge. In Somerset's middle, the flatness of Sedgemoor (where Monmouth enticed the West Country's farmers to be slaughtered for him) with cattle at sunset as in a classical painting, villages on low hills like islands above streams lined with willows, a bird sanctuary. Nearby are Glastonbury with its tor and legends (and festival) and Wells with its tremendous cathedral. To the south is the Hamstone country - beautiful rolling dairy farmland where almost every cottage is of golden stone, and every few miles are magnificent houses/gardens open to the public and glowing villages with old pubs and splendid churches. At Yeovilton is the excellent Fleet Air Arm Museum (including Concorde); Ham Hill has an Iron Age/Roman fort on its top. And to the north-west, the 40 square miles of the beautiful Quantock Hills stretching from Taunton to the Bristol Channel sea and big sandcastling beaches. Wooded, heather-topped, home to red deer and loved by Wordsworth and Coleridge. Superb walks/rides, tremendous views, deep romantic valleys, pretty villages. Along the Quantock's western foot chugs the steam railway from Bishop's Lydeard to Minehead. Few beautiful-country areas are so rich in interesting and splendid man-made things to see.
