Town: A quaint, rural Somerset village, Brent Knoll, formerly known as 'South Brent', rests between Weston-super-Mare to the north, and Bridgwater to the south, lying just east of neighbouring Burnham-on-Sea. An ideal retreat for walking and cycling, enjoying a multitude of footpaths and quiet lanes, whilst also being in easy reach of the M5 and an array of beautiful coastal and beach walks. The village is best known for The Knoll, a 137 foot high hill that dominates the landscape that surrounds the pristine Somerset Levels. Nearby, and within quick access of the village, you can explore the many wonderful, rural nature reserves that reside nearby, including the Steart Marshes, Westhay Moor, Ham Wall, Avalon Marshes, and the Bleadon Levels, whilst the Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty positively-brims with magnificent limestone hills, popular with hikers and spelunkers alike. In Brent Knoll, visitors can stock up on homely essentials at the fabulous Brent Knoll Community Shop, whilst a delicious meal can be had at The Red Cow pub or The Fox & Goose Hotel Bar and Restaurant. For a full day out, head to Cheddar Gorge to explore numerous cave systems, pop into the historic town of Axbridge to amble through narrow streets and roam the quaint market square, or even hop aboard a boat trip in Weston-super-Mare, where you can stop off at the island of Steep Holm during the summer months.
