Tucked into the Somerset hills but easily accessible from London and Bristol by train, Bruton seems to be the village on everyone's lips at the minute. Recently, the teeny tiny town has been attracting attention with its luxurious, arty air. It seems that art galleries like Hauser & Wirth, speciality shops, fancy places to eat, and luxe places to stay are around every corner in these cosy streets. As well as the cultural delights of the town, the opportunity to get into nature is always calling at this Somerset hideaway. Look above to see the Bruton Dovecote, a National Trust-enshrined tower, which you can tramp up to via allotments and charming stonework. A day out here is a perfect amalagmation of the old and contemporary, nature and newness combined.
