The Somerset Levels and Moors is one of the largest wetland areas in England. The area stretches from coastal plains, across marshes, to the edge of the Mendip Hills and Blackdown Hills. Dividing them up is a network of ditches and rivers that provide drainage and create a fantastic patchwork effect across the landscape.
Rich in nature, the Somerset Levels are important for breeding wader birds and rare wildlife and feature wet meadows brimming with flora. Steeped in history too, there is evidence of pre-historic life and Roman heritage, while there are quaint villages where you can find somewhere for a delicious lunch.
So, if you are looking for a relaxing holiday where you can feel off the beaten track, there are footpaths and cycleways to venture on, incredible wildlife and tranquil scenery.
