A prominent hill in Somerset, England, Cothelstone Hill rises to a height of 374 meters (1,227 ft) and offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. The hill is dotted with ancient monuments, including the Cothelstone Hill Roman Temple, a well-preserved Roman temple, and several Bronze Age burial mounds. The hill's slopes are covered in woodland, with many walking trails and bridleways that allow visitors to explore the area. On a clear day, the views from the summit stretch as far as the Mendip Hills, the Quantock Hills, and the Bristol Channel.
Great place to walk the dog. Fantastic 360-degree view at the top. Exposed and windy but worth the walk. There is parking but does get busy.
Always great for a bracing walk and some lovely views. Not this time, but it was misty and magical anyway. Tbe car park is incredibly busy, so get there early or you'll be on the road.
Nice walk with some good views. Can see for miles in a nice day, and has a nice breeze to keep you cool. Lots of trails through the forests as well, ideal for dogs. Can usually see some of the wild ponies wandering about too.
At the risk of increasing the visitor number, this is a great place for a weekend walk. Impressive 360 degree views, and enough space to socially distance!
Nice place for walks and sceneries. Great for dogs too but carefully because there are some ponies around. Fab country site!!
Easy to get too, and big enough for a two hour plus walk without seeing many people
