Milverton is a beautiful village, 20 mins drive from Taunton. There is a lovely traditional well run pub, a post office and really well run open all hours shop, well stocked with local produce and a good wine selection. There is also a beautiful church with stunning churchyard and local community hall, often holding events and concerts. Exmoor and the Quantock Hills are all a short drive away, as is some beautiful coast, including Lyme Regis (under an hours drive away) we often go for lunch. Nearby Wiveliscombe and Wellington have good supermarkets, markets, great local butchers, fishmongers, pubs and a range of eateries. The walks around here are some of the most beautiful in England and vastly enhanced by a pub lunch at the end (or start!) of it.
