Heart Somerset (formerly Orchard FM) was an Independent Local Radio station serving Somerset, England. Originally owned by (and officially remains licenced to) Orchard Media Ltd, the company was purchased by GWR Group in 1999, and who subsequently became GCap Media in 2005. The station broadcast from studios at Haygrove House, Shoreditch near Taunton, adjacent to the M5.

In November 2005 it was announced that GCap's local radio stations in the South West, including Orchard FM, were to be sold. This is due to the fact that they were outside of the company's primary target area. This sale was called off in Spring 2006 because the bids received were much lower than hoped.

2008 saw the takeover of GCap Media by Global Radio. On 20 January 2009, it was announced that Orchard FM, along with 11 other stations in Southern England, would be rebranded as Heart on 23 March 2009.

Presenters on the station included Bob McCreadie (who was Programme Director before joining Pirate FM in 2001) Steve Bulley (now with Wessex FM), Jennie Gow (now covering MotoGP for the BBC), Jon White, Mike Harwood, Dan Jennings, Tim Ley, Dave Gould, Robert D'Ovidio, Jeremy Kyle, Ian Burrage, Laura James and Ben Clark.
