Holford
The Quantocks are an area of wilderness and tranquillity. Panoramic views lead you through coast, heath and coombe. Explore and you will find rocky Jurassic coastline, exposed heathland summits, deep wooded coombes, undulating farmland and attractive villages all within this protected landscape.
The Quantock Hills were the first place in England to be designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
In the late 1790s, the Romantic poets Samuel Taylor Coleridge and William Wordsworth spent a year in the Quantocks, getting inspiration for many of their most famous works from their walks in this lovely area.
"There is everything here: sea, woods wild as fancy ever painted, brooks clear and pebbly, villages so romantic"
- The Quantock Hills, described so rapturously by Dorothy Wordsworth when she came here in 1797 have changed very little since that time.
The Somerset region
If you like walking you can follow in the footsteps of the poet Coleridge along the route that takes his name or trail along any of the many hills, rivers and waterways that cross the County.
