The tiny UK village home to a famous Hollywood celeb – who is often spotted down the pub with locals
MOST celebs choose to live in New York or LA, with their multi-million-pound mansions.
But a tiny UK village is home to a huge Hollywood star – who you wouldn’t expect.
Baltonsborough, in Somerset, has a population of just 864 people.
However, film star Nicolas Cage currently lives there, buying a home in the village a decade ago.
The Oscar winner is known for his films Ghost Rider, The Croods and National Treasure: Book of Secrets.
Locals have said they previously spotted him at a village pub, where he can be seen having a drink.
He was spotted in the nearby Tramways Special Club in Wells, happily taking pics with the locals.
He previously admitted while he loved the village, his job made it hard to stay at his home.
He told Absolute Radio: “I have a modest little cottage in Somerset I have been dreaming to get back to, but with everything we have been contending with it has been so difficult.
“I am looking forward to getting back to your side of the world. Such nice people in Somerset.”
Baltonsborough has seen a number of other A-Listers pass through in recent years too.
Both Sean Bean and Johnny Depp visited the village too.
Outside of celeb-spotting, there is little else to do at Baltonsborough apart from the local pub Greyhound Inn as well as a farm shop and village hall with regular events such as bingo and festivals.
It is just a few miles from Glastonbury, which is most known for its annual music festival.
One Sun travel writer has been to Glastonbury festival eight times – here are her top tips.
But one woman has revealed why there is more to the area than music.
Dee Johnson, who claims to be a white witch, told Sun Online Travel: “Glastonbury is a magical, sacred, place. It is the Heart Chakra of the world, and it’s even said that the holy grail was buried there.
“[And] the high street is packed with lots of independent shops – you won’t see a Starbucks here.
“The people in Glastonbury are really friendly, and I’ve made many friends there who I go back and visit.”
