Higher Halsway rests in a landscape where the Quantock Hills begin their gentle descent. It lies 7.5 km south-east of Watchet (from Watchet: bearing 133°T, OS grid ST 125 382), and is situated south-east of Bicknoller village. The air here often carries the clean, wild scent of gorse and heather, especially after a soft rain has washed the surrounding slopes. Fields, stitched together with ancient hedgerows, roll away towards the Bristol Channel, their colours shifting with the seasons like a master painter's palette. The stones of the scattered cottages, weathered by countless coastal breezes, seem to absorb the pale Somerset light, lending a quiet dignity to the hamlet. Higher Halsway, though small, possesses a certain enduring charm, a place where the quietude of the land speaks volumes.
