Bossington whispers secrets of the Quantock Hills' embrace. It lies 7.1 km west-north-west of Minehead (from Minehead: bearing 281°T, OS grid SS 898 477), and is situated north-west of Allerford village. The hamlet itself is a study in quietude, a scattering of stone cottages and farmhouses that seem to have grown organically from the rich Somerset soil. A gentle stream, the Westwater, meanders through Bossington, its banks often fringed with the vibrant green of watercress, catching the diffused sunlight that filters through the ancient oaks. The air here carries a peculiar stillness, broken only by the distant bleating of sheep or the rustle of leaves, a palpable sense of peace that seems to have settled over Bossington for centuries.
