Nestled away in the stunning Mendip Hills, Butcombe is a picturesque village situated just north of Blagdon Lake, in North Somerset.

Our small Parish is a hidden gem, with stunning country walks and picture postcard scenery at every turn.

Our Parish has a community-led Village Hall, Church and was the home to the original Butcombe Brewery site until it was relocated.
