Bustling Bridgwater is a busy market town set in the heart of Somerset's vastly contrasting but equally beautiful countryside. The town lies in the valley of the fiercely tidal River Parrett at the foot of the Quantocks, with the Somerset levels and the Mendip Hills stretched out before it. Such a position has made Bridgwater and ideal centre for holidaymakers wanting to explore the delights and charms of the West country with its picturesque villages wealth of history and world-famous attractions.
