Compton Dundon is an attractive village in one of the most picturesque parts of Somerset between Somerton and Street. It's surrounded by unspoilt countryside with wooded hills with public access with many footpaths. There is vibrant community based around the church, cricket pitch, pub and village hall. Compton Dundon church is a sweet little parish church sitting on the site of a prehistoric grove and noteworthy for its ancient yew trees believed to date back 1,700 years.Dundon Beacon is a special and species-rich nature reserve, managed by Somerset Wildlife Trust, now being returned to ancient oak woodland with managed coppice and restored grass downland.
