Somerset Day 2020

Happy Somerset Day 2020!

Although we can’t be out enjoying this as in previous years, we adore and appreciate where we live and work. We love supporting communities in and around Somerset and have now been proudly helping homeowners to afford home improvements and repairs in Somerset for 14 years!

We asked our team to share why they love Somerset…

 

 

“When I walk alongside the rolling green fields, gazing on the blue skies scattered with fluffy clouds, feeling the warmth of the spring sun and hearing the rustle of the oak leaves above my head, I take a deep breath of our fresh Somerset country air, and can happily declare that there truly is no place like home. There truly is no other place in the world for me that will match it. So, here is a photo of my acer tree in Autumn – an example of how I am lucky enough to be able to witness that beauty even from our lounge window.”

“Sunsets that match overseas holidays, the view from the top of Glastonbury Tor and twisted trees in the woods on the Quantocks to get lost in”

“I love Somerset because despite it being so popular, there are isolated gems to be found everywhere. This photo was taken near Bridgwater on a walk just opposite the M5, but worlds away from the busy traffic. “

“I love Somerset because of its lovely spacious beaches which the dogs and I can enjoy pretty much alone sometimes!”
