RURAL living From rolling hills and wooded valleys to historic market towns and villages, rural England and Wales offer a more relaxed pace of life, a chance to get close to nature and be part of tight-knit communities. In Somerset, the small farming town of Bruton has now become one of the trendiest hotspots in the UK, thanks to the arrival of pioneering art gallery Hauser & Wirth, which has placed it firmly on the global map. Considered one of the ‘prettiest’ villages in Somerset is Wedmore. Well positioned to enjoy beautiful views of the Mendips and surrounding countryside, Wedmore benefits from a lovely selection of local amenities and boutiques. The Cotswolds is the largest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in England and Wales making it a perfect base for those wanting to enjoy the great outdoors. The Cotswold Water Park has much to offer, from a beautiful lakeside stroll to lovely village pubs and the chance to enjoy activities from water sports and fishing to birdwatching. The village of Sherston is a pretty Cotswold Village with its own amenities including a local shops and two pubs – one of which has previously been the local pub of choice for Princes William and Harry!
