Top Days Out in Somerset whilst visiting The Old Vicarage

There are many places to go and things to do whilst visiting The Old Vicarage, but here are some of our favourite trips out.

Let us know if there are any that should be added to our list.

Wells Market

Wednesday/Saturday mornings

Add in a tour of the cathedral and walk around the small city. The Bishop’s Palace is fantastic with beautiful gardens – add this and make it a day trip.

You could stop off in Glastonbury on the way back or save this for another day.

Clarks Village

Clarks Village Outlet Centre, Street, a great day out coupled with a trip to nearby Glastonbury as well.

Country Walks

Famous Quantock Hills (area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) visible from Bridgwater.

Our favourite is The Great Wood – stop for a coffee at The Foxy Bean after.

Ham Wall nature reserve at Ashcott – fantastic for bird watching.

Bridgwater – walk around the local canal via the docks – have lunch at The Purple Spoon!

Porlock Weir

We love it here – have lunch at The Porlock Weir Hotel, or one of the other food outlets. Very pretty, very grown up (few kids!!!)

On the way worth a quick stop in Minehead for a walk along the front and an ice cream!

Dunster (National Trust)

Again in the direction of Minehead, beautiful castle and pretty Medieval village Stop off at Watchet for a picture post card fishing village.

Coastal

Burnham on Sea, Brean Sands or even Weston Super Mare.

Bit of “kiss me quick” and sand as far as you can sea.

Or Jurassic at Kilve with a quirky tea at Chantry Tea Gardens or good food at The Hood Arms

Dorset

Bit of a drive but we love it. Fantastic coastline. Bridport, then on to West Bay or even Burton Bradstock (the Hive Beach Café is great).

Montacute House & Barrington Court

National Trust for a wet day? Montacute House and Barrington Court are both quite nearby.
Which of these days out will you be trying first? Are there any we’ve missed?
