Long Sutton Village Green The Parish
of Long Sutton is situated in the heart of Somerset, bordered to the south by
the Levels and the river Yeo and to the north by rolling hills and woods. Access
by road, rail, air and ferry from the Continent is excellent.
The Parish contains the village of Long Sutton and the hamlets of Knole and Upton.
At the centre of the village is the Green which is surrounded by a splendid XVIth
century church and other interesting listed buildings making it one of the most
attractive villages in the county. Knole, hidden between hills, is smaller and
more snug and has many lovely cottages. Long
Sutton is an excellent centre for walking, cycling, fishing and golf (there is
an 18 hole course within easy walking distance from the hotel on the Green) and
to relax and enjoy the ambience of the countryside. Facilities include a good
shop and post office, two pubs/ hotels and an excellent primary school. Within
a few miles of the Parish there are many very good hotels and restaurants and
a wide variety of tourist attractions. In
the bi-annual Somerset Village of the Year competitions Long Sutton was overall
winner in 2001 and received a special recommendation in 2004. |
