Growing up in the South West is brilliant for long summer holidays. There’s so much to see and do and miles of fabulous coastline.

If you already live in the South West or are planning on hiking down from the Midlands – we all know you do it – check out the Secret Somerset List, which has 50 fantastic activities and locations complete with interactive map and suggested itineraries.

Some of Chopsy Baby’s favourite days out from the top 50 list:

Victorian and WW2 Fort with sweeping views, Brean Down
Coasteering on the highest coastline in England from Minehead
World’s greatest collection of vintage plastics at Bakelite Museum, Williton
Super sandcastles at The Weston-super-Mare Sand Festival
Underground Victorian reservoir to explore at Dunster Castle
The second oldest clock in the world at Wells Cathedral
Somerset’s own Jurassic Coast, Kilve to Blue Anchor
Burnham-on-Sea lighthouse, one of the world’s most iconic

The one thing you really don’t want to do is to drive your car onto the beach at Burnham-on-sea It seems to be a competitive sport during the summer season and yes, you will end up all over YouTube as people point and laugh.
