Location
Kingsdon is a small historic village nestled in the undulating hills of South Somerset, with far reaching views to the east and south. The village lies half-way between the Roman settlement of Ilchester and the market town of Somerton and retains it old-world charm. There is no through traffic and a wealth of historic cottages and elegant houses of individual character line the quiet streets. Many of the old (and some of the new) houses have been built using blue lias stone quarried from within the village. Kingsdon offers an array of amenities including a community run shop, located in the former school dwelling, 13th Century church, family run thatched pub Kingsdon Inn, village hall and allotments, children's playground and plenty of public footpaths enjoyed by keen hikers and dog owners. The village is home to a varity of clubs and sociaties and holds an annual summer festival for villagers and locals to enjoy on the green. Kingsdon is neighbour to National Trust owned 'Lytes Cary Manor' and well positioned for travel, being close to the A303 and M5 with a well linked bus service and mainline railway stations are located in Castle Cary, Yeovil and Taunton with direct links to Waterloo and Paddington.
