tarr steps印象

This was a revisit here having been a number of years ago. The Tarr Steps are a fantastic sight giving a natural stone crossing over the beautiful River Barle. This is the longest bridge of its type in Britain and is a marvel of engineering with nothing seemingly holding the stones together. We opted for a circular walk of just over a mile leaving from the Tarr Steps alongside the river. This could be a little challenging for the less sure footed. There are a few short climbs to be made but the enjoyment to be gained from undertaking the walk make it worthwhile. I would like to have seen a little information along the walk of the flora and fauna which would enhance the experience especially for those with children. There were trout to be seen if you looked carefully and pheasants could be heard. There were other birds also including the yellow pied wagtail. At the side of the river there are some fallen tree stumps which have been turned into sculptures as visitors have pressed coins into the stumps making these sculptures look like crocodiles on the bank. After the walk there are refreshments to be enjoyed at the nearby Inn.During our visit there were people of all ages taking pleasure from their surroundings. The overall experience was a thoroughly enjoyable couple hours.

Tarr Steps is a beautiful place no matter what time of the year you visit. Definetley worth a visit if you down that way, can just go to the tea rooms at tarr farm or go for a circular walk.

This is a truly picturesque place to visit. lovely bit of history dating back 4000 years. Parking only £2 for the day. lovely clean clear water to paddle in on a hot sunny day.Kids can catch a range of little fish etc with nets. there is space to take a BBQ and have a picnic.Just a great place to chill out

A pleasant walk leads you to the mysterious Tarr Steps. Very atmospheric and so worth the effort. When we arrived we were the only ones there, so peaceful

The bridge is a really magic and historic place. A visit or a walking tour to Tarr Steps is a must while staying at Anstey Mills Cottages, wich is about 5 miles away.

We only spent a hour and a half there but we had to drag the children away, they had so much fun going under the steps, over some stones, my youngest did get soaked when she slipped but soon recovered. There was a ice cream hut and a pub/restaurant too, lots of dogs too. If summer has not ended then we will go back and take our puppy and try the walks around.

Well worth a trip and walk. Quiet and scenic. Dog loved it. The actual steps across the river are quite a sight. Circular walk is only 1.5 miles in distance.

Beautiful!! Can't say much else really.. Babbling brook children paddling, great for dog walkers. Car park is £2 for the day that's the only tariff. Top tip use the loos in Tarr Farm they are much cleaner and worth spending on a cuppa.

Having lived in Somerset for the past 15 years I've no idea why I've not ventured here before. The views on the drive there are spectacular and once there you won't be disappointed. Car parking is just £2 per day, which is a bonus and unusual for parking near a free attraction! Two 8 year old boys initial reactions to their day out destination "is this it? Boring" but within two minutes they had their shoes off and were paddling and climbing on the stones/rocks. After a picnic overlooking the beautiful and tranquil river we ventured on the circular walk which took in rough terrains for the first half but was both relaxing and peaceful (even with the two boys who kept stopping off along the way to play in the water). I would highly recommend for a free day out and will certainly be returning soon. There is a lovely pub right beside Tarr steps which serves food (all day in the summer). Fantastic beer garden space!

Really beautiful scenery and the circular walk was excellent. Then a drink at the Tarr Steps Farm was lovely. Really worth the drive over there.
