Welcome to Brompton Regis

Brompton Regis is a small village located in the county of Somerset, England. The village is situated on the southern edge of the Exmoor National Park, which makes it an ideal location for those who love the outdoors. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside, and there are plenty of walking and cycling routes to explore. Brompton Regis is also home to a number of historic buildings, including the 13th-century St Mary's Church.

One of the main attractions in Brompton Regis is the Exmoor Owl and Hawk Centre. This centre is home to a variety of birds of prey, including owls, hawks, and falcons.
