The Autumn
is a great time to get away for a short camping break and this year the autumn
colours are spectacular. Our site, Nr Yeovil, in Somerset is a great place to enjoy a late autumn break.
In the run
up to Christmas there are always lots of great events around Somerset to visit – we have
highlighted a few of our favourites here, which are within easy distance of Southfork, although there is much more information about these and other events on the visit Somerset website.
For the
nature lovers among you, the stunning gardens and grounds at The National Trust’s
Montacute house are full of wonderful Autumn colours at the moment. This beautiful Elizabethan Manor has a range
of events on throughout the season, including a popular local Craft and Farmers Market on 26th November, why not combine a visit to see the house
and gardens illuminated in ‘A Lantern of light’, during the weekends from 26th & 27th November and through December.
If a day at
the races is more your thing – Wincanton Racecourse have race events on the
following dates through November and December Thursday 17th November, Thursday
1st December, Tuesday 13th December, Monday 26th December.
For a spot
of festive shopping, the Rural Living Christmas Show is a large,
annual Christmas craft and lifestyle show held just outside Taunton. The fair
offers specialist crafts and artisan food from the South West, with more than
130 stands offering local foods, gifts and demonstrations as well as children’s
entertainment, it’s a great place for some Christmas shopping. Alternatively, take a trip to Clarks Village
in Street for some festive bargain hunting, with over 90 retailers you are sure to find something for everyone.
