Could we be any more proud of Somerset? 🌟

The recent exposure of some of our stately homes and notable properties in the BBC adaption of Wolf Hall was watched by over 4 million people. With thanks to Mark Ford at Screen Somerset, we go behind the scenes in our January issue available via link in bio.

The issue is packed with informative reads and I'll bet you come away saying 'well, I never knew that'. That's the joy of Somerset Life magazine - it's a feel good read and reminds you why our corner of the West Country really is a great place to live, work and play.

🌟 Is Somerset home to Britain's oldest house? We head to Saltford to find out about a Norman house which makes the claim.

⭐ Cider lovers unite. Have you made your pilgrimage to the cider monument in Curry Rivel? Makes for a great winter walk

🌟 Join me in conversation with TV personality Gyles Brandreth as he tells us all about his love for Weston-super-Mare, Bath and Wells... oh, and his penchant for the knitted jumper!

⭐ Treat yourself to a wellbeing retreat - Our writer Angharad Paull reviews 42 Acres near Frome and it's your chance to win a 2 night stay.

🌟 Life beyond the lens: Our arts columnist Emma Bovill meets a very talented photographer who creates incredible artwork despite coping with vision loss.

⭐ Oishii! (It's delicious) Let's review INOSHISHI, Frome's new Japanese restaurant

PLUS: How to entertain the kids for the wet and windy winter weekends, world class musicians come to Wells, the quirks of Evercreech village (did you spot the anomaly?) plus a walk around Chew Valley Lake with the award-winning photographer, Lucy Masters and much much more.

Buy your Mum a subscription to Somerset Life magazine for Mother's Day and give her a bonus £10 M&S gift card on us! www.greatbritishlife.co.uk/gift/somerset Use the PROMO CODE - MARKSWEB to receive your £10 M&S eGift Card It’s time to celebrate! Not only does the month of March mean it’s officially springtime (Cheerio winter!) it also gifts us with the annual celebration of Mother’s Day. Whether you’re still living at home and want to say thank you for all the laundry and cooking, or whether you’re way past that stage and just want your Mum to know that you care; Mother’s Day is the one day in the year when you get to say, ‘thank you’. Searching for a thank you gift is tricky; flowers and chocolates can be seen as a mere ‘token’ so for those of you who are looking for something a little more special, how about a Somerset Life magazine subscription? Your Mum will receive a copy of the latest magazine through her door every month which technically makes it the gift that keeps on giving (favourite child alert!) A magazine subscription also ensures that your Mum will sit down with a cuppa (or a glass of wine!) and make time just for her. Popping her feet up and reading the latest copy of Somerset Life will give your Mum the key insights to all the best people, places, food and events from across the county. It’s the must-have quality publication filled with beautiful photography, recipes, health and wellness as well as recommended guided walks across our glorious countryside. A 12-month gift subscription only costs £35.99 and as gifts go, this one ensures that your Mum feels spoilt not just for Mother’s Day but all year round. Head to www.greatbritishlife.co.uk/gift and enter the discount code MARKSWEB.
