Located in the South West of England, Somerset county is known for its open countryside, sandy beaches, and as the home of the world-famous Glastonbury festival. Somerset is an area of outstanding architectural beauty, with 11,500 listed buildings, 523 ancient monuments and 36 English heritage sites. The Somerset coast is one of the most beautiful coastlines in the UK, and it also has a rich history – it served as the base for King Alfred’s resistance against the Vikings, and also features guard posts from the first and second World Wars.
Somerset is also known for its rich literary heritage. T.S. Eliot’s ashes rest in East Coker, and Evelyn Waugh spent the last few years of his life in the village of Combe Florey. Samuel Taylor Coleridge was once a resident of Somerset – Watchet Harbour served as the inspiration behind the poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. Somerset was also the background for much of Jane Austen’s work. Are you a literature buff with too many books and not enough space? Why not keep them safe at Access self storage in Somerset?

Another jewel in Somerset’s crown is the village of Cheddar. It’s here that Cheddar cheese first originated – Cheddar Gorge, on the outskirts of the village, is home to a number of caves which had provided the ideal climate for the cheese to mature. Beyond its cheese-maturing capabilities, Cheddar Gorge is in the Mendip Hills, home to some breath-taking views and well worth a visit. Do you go hiking in and around Somerset regularly?

Glastonbury is a small town in Somerset, steeped in myth with its many ancient and medieval sites. Rumour has it that Joseph of Arimathea, the man entrusted with the burial of Jesus, fled Palestine for England and brought with him the Holy Grail, which he stored in a Glastonbury well. Glastonbury is also the destination for the popular arts festival, where some of the world’s greatest music acts, from The Who to Oasis, have performed over the years.
