Taunton Short Breaks
Scene of the Monmouth Rebellion of 1685, the historic town of Taunton with its scarred Castle is well worth a visit. Renowned for its floral displays in the summer, cream teas await on every corner. The splendid parish church of St. Mary Magdalene with the tallest tower in Somerset is just one of the discoveries you will make on a heritage trail around the town.
