Beercrocombe, Somerset
Beercrocombe is a quiet village just 1 mile from Curry Mallet and 7 miles from Taunton. It lies in beautiful Somerset countryside, so naturally there are several good walks around the village on lanes, footpaths and bridleways. Despite there being no pub or shop (there are both in Curry Mallet) there's a good community and it's a friendly little place; the old phone box, like many these days, has been converted to a book exchange. The church of St James is one of those simple country churches that are very pretty and worth having a look round to see the hunky-punks carved at the bottom of the archways. If you're planning a walk or exploring the area when you're staying nearby on your large group holidays in Somerset, do a route that takes in Beercrocombe, or allows for a short diversion to the village, just for the country charm.
