There really is no better time to visit Somerset than September. Why? well, the school holidays are over, so all the crowds and queues are gone. September simply gives visitors the chance to explore a much calmer and quieter Somerset, and still enjoy mild weather days of late summer. If that isn’t enough reason, there’s some fantastic events happening in and around the County.
