Somerton is an attractive market town that is located in the heart of Somerset, sitting between Langport and Street amid the gently rolling countryside above the Somerset Levels. Home to roughly 5,000 people, Somerton has a cracking history and was an important royal centre in Saxon times, even giving Somerset its name. The old Market Cross, handsome stone buildings and Church of St Michael and All Angels still give the centre plenty of character.
The A303 runs a few miles south of the town, with the A37 also nearby, while buses provide links towards Yeovil, Street and surrounding villages; Castle Cary is among the nearest useful railway stations. Somerton has its fair share of independent shops, pubs, cafés, schools, a library, medical facilities and sports clubs, covering everyday needs without losing its small-town feel.
