The Neighborhood:
Axbridge is very well located for exploring the Somerset countryside and the and nearby market towns. The coast is 10 miles away and both Bath and Bristol are within 30 miles and the Cart House Holiday Cottage is an excellent base from which to explore these historic and lively cities.

The history of Axbridge stretches back to prehistoric times with evidence of people living in the caves of the Mendip Hills. Later the Romans settled and mined in the area. However, it is with the medieval period that Axbridge is most closely associated.

Easy access to the motorways and A roads. We would recommend travelling by motor-vehicle, however there are plenty of walks nearby.

Axbridge - Beautiful
A lovely village with a fab square to sit have a few drinks and some good food. Even better when the suns out. This was an excellent location to visit lots of other areas such as the Gorge and coastline. The house was well equipped with everything needed for a relaxing break.
