Winscombe is a large Somerset village that is tucked beneath the western Mendip Hills, around eight miles south-east of Weston-super-Mare and close to neighbouring Sandford. Together, the Winscombe and Sandford area is home to around 4,500 people. The village has old farming roots, while nearby limestone quarrying and the arrival of the railway helped shape the area during the 19th century. That railway has now gone, but much of its route now forms the Strawberry Line, a cracking traffic-free trail for walkers and cyclists.

The A38 runs close to Winscome, giving handy road links towards Bristol, Weston-super-Mare and the M5, while local buses cover surrounding communities. Winscombe has independent shops, cafés, pubs, schools, a library, medical facilities and sports clubs, so there's a decent range of everyday services. The Mendip Hills and Cheddar Gorge are right on the doorstep. National Trust attractions within easy reach include King John's Hunting Lodge, Tyntesfield and Clevedon Court, while English Heritage's Meare Fish House can be reached across the Somerset Levels.
