The Strawberry Line

A great route in North Somerset for cycling or walking. There are many places to join the strawberry line along its stretch from Yatton to Cheddar, but on particularly popular starting point in Winscombe. This route includes an old, long tunnel that is interesting, a lovely photo opportunity, and fun to pass through. Great for a nice country walk with your dog and/or your Family.

Thatcher’s Cider Farm

Thatscher’s is an Edwardian cider farm, owned by 4 generations of cider makers. Nestled at the foot of the Mendip Hills, Thatcher’s produces all its own cider on site at Myrtle Farm. You can visit the Farm for a guided tour of their factory and grounds. Witness the cider making process in action. You can also visit their shop or take a stroll along the wildlife trail through its apple orchards.

Court Farm Country Park

Owned and run by the Gwyn family, Court Farm is a 108 acre former dairy farm. Now home to pedigree cattle and sheep, Court Farm has lots of other friendly animals, from ponies to pigs, with lots going every day. Enjoy bottle-feeding baby lambs or a free tractor ride. They have something to suit all the family. Over the years, wildlife ponds and trees have been added to enhance the farm and to ensure its future.
