House Removals Weston-Super-Mare
With a 2-hour commute to Birmingham, London and Plymouth, Weston-Super-Mare is becoming not only popular as a holiday destination, but as a place to set-up home. The traditional seaside resort is home to The Grand Pier. Sadly, the pier was subject to a destructive fire in 2008. However, it was rebuilt and reopened in 2010 and is now a wonderful day out and local haunt for families.
Weston-Super-Mare still offers donkey rides on its sandy shores and the wide sweep of Weston Bay is loved by all. The coastline is pristine but do not forget that there is countryside to explore, and Cheddar, Glastonbury, Wells, Bristol, Bath and the Mendip and Quantock Hills are all within easy reach.
