Castle Cary is a small market town in south Somerset, set among rolling countryside between Shepton Mallet and Wincanton. Castle Cary is home to around 2,500 people, it has medieval roots and takes its name from a castle that was built after the Norman Conquest, although very little of the fortification still survives today. Wool, agriculture and local crafts kept the town ticking over through the years, leaving behind attractive stone buildings and a traditional market-town feel.

Castle Cary railway station, about a mile from the centre, is a real bonus, with services towards London Paddington, Bristol, Bath, Exeter and Weymouth, while the A371 provides useful road links. The town has independent shops, cafés, pubs, schools, medical facilities, a museum and sports amenities, with plenty of countryside nearby for walking. The Newt in Somerset and Bruton are easy outings. National Trust properties within reach include Lytes Cary Manor, Stourhead and Montacute House, while English Heritage's Nunney Castle is particularly handy, with Sherborne Old Castle another good bet for anyone after a dose of local history.
