Dancing out in the West Somerset area

 

West Somerset is beautiful area and has some stunning villages and panoramas. On a good day, which is most days, you can see all the way to Wales.

 

We are also very lucky to have many picturesque places to dance such as Porlock Wier (insert) and Dunster as well as some fine hostelries selling traditional local ales and ciders.

 

Last year (2025 )celebrated 60 years since West Somerset Morris began. .

 

Following the 2026 dance season dancing and music does not stop. Practise sessions at St. Audries Village Hall will continues in September 2026 until Easter 2027.  The new 2026 season will begin in May 2026.
