One thing I would say, you come from a very large country and ours is a small place but it still takes quite some travelling to get from place to place. |

Google Airbnb.co.uk - it is a list of bed and breakfast places, and homes where people rent out one room and supply breakfast. |

I suppose it depends what part of Somerset, some of it could be done comfortably from a hotel on the outskirts of Bristol. I am assuming you would hire a car. But South Somerset would be more easily covered at Taunton record office so a hotel there would be useful. |

Have you checked that the places you want to visit are actually open? You should be able to check online and possibly see what records they hold too. |

Kim. Although its best to stay on line as long as possible after you've posted, as you've said you're in Australia we all understand the time difference. You need to refresh the page (F5) to see new posts. |
