South Cadbury and Sutton Montis are adjacent civil parishes located in the county of Somerset, England. South Cadbury is situated about 5 miles south-east of Yeovil, while Sutton Montis lies approximately 6 miles to the south of Yeovil. The two parishes are part of the South Somerset district.

South Cadbury is perhaps best known for its association with the legendary King Arthur. The village is home to Cadbury Castle, an ancient hillfort believed by some to be the site of Camelot. The hillfort offers stunning panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and is a popular destination for hikers and history enthusiasts alike. The village itself features a mix of charming cottages and more modern houses, as well as a pub, a church, and a primary school.

Sutton Montis, on the other hand, is a smaller and quieter parish with a population of approximately 200 residents. It is characterized by its picturesque countryside, rolling hills, and quaint stone houses. The village is home to the Church of All Saints, a Grade II listed building that dates back to the 15th century. The church is known for its beautiful stained glass windows and historic architecture.

Both South Cadbury and Sutton Montis offer a peaceful and rural lifestyle, with easy access to the larger towns of Yeovil and Sherborne. The surrounding countryside provides ample opportunities for outdoor activities such as walking, cycling, and horse riding. The parishes are also well-connected by road, making them convenient for commuters and visitors alike.
