About the area 

West Pennard is a very popular village in beautiful countryside between Wells, Shepton Mallet and Glastonbury. The larger towns of Bath, Bristol and Yeovil are all within easy commuting distance. The village has a church, primary school, pub, village hall and a very active community. 

Glastonbury's past and its present are linked with its dominant landmark, the Tor. It’s been a religious centre throughout history and further back into the times of legends. Today it’s a small but thriving town and a major tourist venue, welcoming thousands of visitors each year. 

Just 5 miles from Glastonbury is Wells which is the smallest city in England (population 10,000). Its centre is the market place (local markets twice a week) surrounded by many medieval buildings including the Cathedral and moated Bishops Palace. 

Immediately to the south (2 miles) of Glastonbury is the more recent town of Street and these centres provide a wide range of facilities and amenities to suit most needs. There are excellent state and independent  schools including West Pennard’s Primary School, Strode College, Millfield and Wells Cathedral School.
