Seven Somerset towns and villages have been included in Muddy Stilettos' Best Places to Live 2027 guide.

Seven Somerset locations have been named among the best places to live in Britain by lifestyle website Muddy Stilettos in its Best Places to Live 2027 guide, which includes 260 desirable towns, villages and neighbourhoods across the country. The selected areas are Bathwick, Bruton, Chew Magna, Clevedon, Frome, Langport and Wells.

Bathwick was recognised for its Georgian terraces and green spaces, as well as its proximity to Bath city centre across the River Avon. Bruton was described as the 'Notting Hill of the South West' and praised for its cultural attractions, food, bars and strong community. Chew Magna was highlighted for its characterful houses, places to eat and location near Chew Valley Lake, around 10 miles from Bristol, which could suit people wishing to work in the city while living in the countryside.

Clevedon was celebrated for its Victorian villas, independent businesses, Marine Lake and landmark pier, as well as its proximity to Bristol and views across the Bristol Channel towards Wales. Frome earned its place through its independent shops, cafés, creative scene and popular monthly market. Muddy Stilettos said: 'There's more to Somerset than Glastonbury, cheese and cider (though it's a bit of a foodie heaven).'

The guide highlighted Somerset's seaside towns, historic cities and creative communities, alongside features such as the Somerset Levels, Exmoor, the Jurassic north coast and the World Heritage City of Bath, with Bristol nearby.
