Steeped in History and Culture

A destination that holds great character and copious amounts of tradition, you can write your very own holiday home history here at Brean. Home to the famous Brean Down Fort, which was built in the 1860’s, its job was to protect the ports and surrounding areas of the Bristol Channel. It came into use again in WWII, where it was transformed into a coastal artillery battery. It was actually the site of experimentation for the bouncing bomb. This historic treasure of the South West coast can still be explored today and is one of Brean’s most popular attractions.

Brean is home to two ancient churches. The Church of St Bridget was built in the 13th century and is a Grade II listed building, and Brean Methodist Church was established in the late 1700s. Both of these traditionally designed buildings prove popular among visitors as it gives them a real feel of the history seeping throughout the whole of Brean.

If you’re interested in feeling close to the arts, culture, and traditional customs of the South West coast, then Brean and Somerset is the ideal place to get your culture fix. Famous poet T.S Eliot’s ancestors actually originated from Somerset village East Coker before emigrating to America. This explains why East Coker is Eliot’s title of the second poem in his publication of The Four Quartets.

This literary legend’s bond with Somerset doesn’t stop there, as his ashes were actually scattered among the grounds of East Coker’s village church. So, whilst you’re relaxing in your holiday home, you’ll be surrounded by a plethora of history and culture, and have the opportunity to be in the heart of such an historic county.

Location Location Location

So important they named the TV show three times and the location of Brean’s holiday homes are definitely something the other UK holiday accommodation sites are envious of. Stunning coastal views meets rugged, beautiful countryside landscapes, and both complemented with breathtaking sunsets lighting up England’s South Western skies.

Never mind about having to go abroad to feel the warm sand between your toes, because the coastal stretch from Brean Down to Burnham-on-Sea is the second longest in Europe with eight different beaches. Forget about the pebble beaches of Lloret de Mar, here in Brean you’ll definitely be able to build those sandcastles.

A true British county known for its rolling hills, Brean actually gets its name from the word “Bryn”, which translates from Brythonic and Modern Welsh to hill.
