Somerset Half Term Dates in 2012, 2013 and 2014. Latest School Holiday Term Times.

Somerset County Council is responsible for publishing school term dates and holiday information. Information for the current and next academic years are shown here.

Somerset is a rural county of rolling hills such as the Mendip Hills, Quantock Hills and Exmoor National Park, and large flat expanses of land including the Somerset Levels.

There is evidence of human occupation from Neolithic times, and subsequent settlement in the Roman and Saxon periods. Later, the county played a significant part in the consolidation of power and rise of King Alfred the Great, the English Civil War and the Monmouth Rebellion.

Agriculture is a major business in the county. Farming of sheep and cattle, including for wool and the county's famous cheeses (most notably Cheddar), are traditional and contemporary, as is the more unusual cultivation of willow for basketry.

Apple orchards were once plentiful, and to this day Somerset is known for the production of strong cider.
