The County of Somerset is as diverse as it is fascinating. Five ranges of hills dominate the region, providing spectacular, undulating scenery which provide a haven for wildlife. Exmoor and the rugged north coast draw both tourism and those searching for a home to an area of beauty and tranquillity.

Dairy farming and cider orchards rub shoulders while striking hamstone villages contrast with the larger agricultural and commercial centres.

People are drawn to the region for a variety of reasons. Whether to enjoy the open countryside, the traditional architecture or to take advantage of the excellent private education on offer, the County proves attractive to many different individuals for varied reasons. Premier Property can help you with your Somerset property search.

Property prices vary with the landscape. A good house on Exmoor for example can command as much as its equivalent fifty miles to the east. Centres of note such as Wells, with its stunning Cathedral and architecture, the mystical Glastonbury and the thriving County town of Taunton are all a draw and have their own attractions for both residents and tourists alike.
