Somerset in England

Somerset is a county in southwest of England, with famous towns like Glastonbury and Wells, or the Exmoor National Park in the west.
We only passed through this county on our way from London to Cornwall (or rather Bath to Ilfracombe where we spent one night each on the way), so we had limited time and only visited a few places - Nunny Castle, a picturesque castle ruins; Englands largest gorge, the Cheddar gorge; Dunster, a small town with a castle near the Exmoor National Park; and the Bossington Hills near Minehead in the Exmoor Nationl Park, a great place with views on the sea and the Exmoor hills.
