Get in
Langport can easily be accessed from main roads leading in from Bridgwater, Taunton or Yeovil directions.

Do
The River Parrett flows through the town and is an excellent place to take a walk on a summers day. There are large amounts of farmland and fields to walk around also. There is also an abandoned railway line converted into a footpath, the Parrett Cycleway, running for around a mile to the south of the town. It leads to nearby the aforementioned Muchelney Abbey, and a brief walk along the riverside from the southern end of the cycleway leads you to the railway line’s old river bridge.
