Why have a Balloon Ride over Somerset? Where is it?

Somerset, pronounced Sama-set, is a county in the South West of England. It's county town is Taunton, which is located to the South of the County.

Somerset borders itself with the counties of Bristol, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Dorset and Devon and is a rural area with rolling hills and lovely countryside.

About Us
It's hills are second to none and the most famous areas are the Quantock Hills, Exmoor National Park and the Mendip Hills. As for flat plains, it has the Somerset Levels, which date back to the Roman and Saxon periods.

In Somerset the main business is agriculture. For farming it's particually good at sheep and cattle, producing world famous cheeses and wool. Not to mention it's willow industry, which is heavily used for hot air ballooning.

Hot air balloons use willow to be turned into wicker, which makes our balloon baskets. Three of our balloon baskets were manufactured using Somerset willow, in Somerset. So when choosing a balloon ride operator, make sure they're helping the local community, like us!
