A countryside hub with a city vibe
There is no escaping Bruton's stunning Somerset landscapes, but it's the cultural offering and stylish restaurants and bars that give this small town a real point of difference from the Nearby West Country villages. Its direct train service to London and Bristol is probably what's given the town its city centre character, and makes it a great place for spotting celebs who have heard about this hidden gem.
