Also good pubs and shops. Museum and theatre. ### 3/5 - Okay Verified traveller The museum on Gold Hill was interesting and had very helpful and friendly staff. Not much else to see in town though... ### 4/5 - Good Verified traveller Nice little town on the hill but this cottage is actually just south of there in Fontmell Magna, which is a quintessential English village complete with thatched houses, pub and shop.
