North Stoke

North Stoke is a small, rural civil parish in Bath and North East Somerset, England, set in the Somerset countryside within easy reach of Bath and Bristol. It feels very much like a quiet English parish - hedged fields, narrow lanes and scattered farmsteads - rather than a concentrated village, and attracts people who value a peaceful rural setting while keeping links to nearby towns.

Historically the area reflects an agricultural past and you’ll find older stone houses and farm buildings among the landscape; socially it’s a small, close-knit community that depends on neighbouring settlements for most shops and services. The parish is popular with walkers and cyclists and functions largely through farming and a mix of long‑standing residents and commuters who travel into the city for work.
