Description
In my opinion, Somerset, England is underrated. I always heard lots about Devon and Cornwall, but very little about Somerset. When I visited this region, it was gorgeous!!
The beautiful rural village of Selworthy is located in the National Trust's Holnicote Estate on the northern fringes of Exmoor. It has picturesque thatched cottages, such as the one pictured here, which are painted a creamy, buttery yellow with limewash that has been tinted with ochre. Much of Selworthy has beautiful views, as well!
The village and the surrounding Holnicote estate were given to the National Trust in 1944 by Sir Richard Acland, whose family had owned the estate for nearly 200 years. It is now a lovely area for residents and visitors.
My advice is, don't miss the region of Somerset, with its moors, wild ponies, heather, and wild beauty, and don't miss quaint and picturesque Selworthy!
