Location -

Bruton - Nestled in the rolling hills of Somerset, the historic market town of Bruton offers a captivating blend of heritage, culture, cuisine, and countryside charm. Once a quiet rural town, Bruton has emerged as a vibrant destination, attracting visitors with its unique mix of old and new.

Art and culture flourish here, most notably at Hauser & Wirth Somerset, a world-class contemporary art gallery housed in a converted farm, surrounded by beautifully designed gardens by Piet Oudolf. The town's rich history is evident in landmarks like the 14th-century St Mary’s Church and the iconic Bruton Dovecote, a 16th-century tower offering sweeping views of the surrounding landscape. Bruton is also a haven for food lovers. Michelin-starred Osip serves seasonal, locally sourced cuisine in an intimate setting, while At The Chapel combines a restaurant, bakery, and gallery inside a converted chapel. Nearby, The Newt in Somerset offers not just exquisite dining and accommodation, but also expansive gardens, woodland walks, and a farm-to-table ethos.

Education is a key part of the community, with several well-regarded schools in the town, including King’s School, Bruton School for Girls, and Sexey’s School, all offering strong academic and pastoral support.

The countryside around Bruton is equally rewarding, with highlights such as King Alfred’s Tower and the world-famous Stourhead Gardens just a short drive away. For those with a literary bent, the quirky Discworld Emporium in nearby Wincanton celebrates the beloved works of Terry Pratchett.

With its creative energy, culinary excellence, and idyllic setting, Bruton is a small town that offers an unexpectedly rich experience for home movers.
