Bruton is a small Somerset town that sits quietly beside the River Brue, surrounded by rolling countryside, and situated between the towns of Frome and Wincanton. Bruton is home to roughly 3,000 people, and has Saxon roots and a surprisingly rich history, with Bruton Abbey established in medieval times and the town later developing through wool, agriculture and local trade. Its old stone houses, narrow streets and Dovecote give the place oodles of character, while Hauser & Wirth Somerset has added a strong contemporary arts scene.
Bruton railway station is a real bonus for both visitors and residents alike, with services towards Frome, Westbury, Weymouth and Bristol, while the nearby A359 and A303 keep road journeys fairly straightforward. The town has a decent choice of independent shops, cafés, pubs, schools, medical services and community facilities, with plenty of countryside walks nearby. Stourhead is the standout National Trust property within easy reach, joined by Lytes Cary Manor and Montacute House further west. English Heritage's Nunney Castle is also handy, while Sherborne Old Castle and Farleigh Hungerford Castle offer more historic days out without travelling too far.
