What's your ideal Christmas break? For me, it is probably to stay somewhere really warm and cosy, where I can rest in comfort in front of a crackling log fire, sipping a rather large glass of red wine. I'd also want to be able to go for some lovely country walks, stepping through crisp frost and breathing out water vapour plumes into the air as I enjoy the sights and sounds of nature around me.
The Blackdown Hills, only a few miles from Myrtle House, provide the location for any number of wonderfully scenic day-trips for people who enjoy exploring nature. We recently learned that the nearby Neroche site has created a wheelchair- and pushchair-accessible 1km circular trail, available to the public and with spectacular views across Somerset. Their website has more information about this new trail, as well as giving details about their other trails and activities they operate for the benefit of visitors.
