Deer Leap has some of the most breathtaking views in Somerset. On a clear day you can see as far as the Quantock Hills and the Bristol Channel. Glastonbury Tor, the Hood Monument and Nyland Hill are also clearly visible, together with the many small islands of higher ground within the Somerset Levels and Moors.
Deer Leap is the site of abandoned medieval farmsteads. There are fine walking opportunities along a network of footpaths.
