Only a half an hour’s drive from Bristol, the village of Yatton has a thriving high street, lovely parks and cosy coffee shops, as well as a 14th century pub which kept the masons’ thirst quenched while they built the church hundreds of years ago.
Driving into the village earlier this week, it has probably changed somewhat since then, but it still holds that quaint appeal which only comes through that history of time. Last year Yatton was dubbed as one of “the worst places to live” in Somerset according to property finder Garrington - but it’s hard to see why.
There are lots of new builds on the outskirts of the village, which are being snapped up. There is a strong community feel which came to the fore when the Yatton Infant School caught fire recently, with everyone rallying to help the school and the classes affected.
