Welcome to Broomfield

Broomfield

As the owner of Broomfield... welcome to one of my favourite places in the world!

Broomfield is a small village in the heart of the quantock hills, Somerset. I lived in this area for 12 years and it is definately one of my favourite places to be. The quantocks are a great place for walking the dogs and cycling and the local pubs are top notch!

andyph What a great Zub! I have never been to !Broomfield, infact, I had never heard of it until today but it looks like the sort of place I like to go. Somewhere to walk the dog, then find a pub and have a drink, perfect!
