Somerset

Posted on 16 September 2025 by Hollie Nend

Mixed demand: Somerset combines larger towns like Taunton and Bath with smaller rural communities. We find steady demand in the towns, with occasional cover needs in villages.

Commuting opportunities: Somerset’s location makes it easy for locums to travel into neighbouring counties such as Bristol, Devon, and Dorset.

Lifestyle factor: Practices in scenic, rural Somerset may offer a calmer working pace compared to busy cities, appealing to those looking for variety and the odd shift!
