I booked for two nights for a recent stay in Wells and had a lovely experience. Cynthia and her daughter Jo were extremely hospitable and welcoming. The room was quaint and cosy in an old farmhouse building. My room overlooked the small stream which made it very tranquil.Breakfast was served in the morning cooked to order and was very pleasant.I would highly recommend staying here if you want something convenient and in a stunning location.

This is much much more than a B&B . Delightful location, a mere stroll from the Bishop's Palace and the centre of Town, yet overlooking the peaceful fields around this most lovely city. …

Gorgeous home, lovely warm welcome and delicious breakfast. Wonderful building on the edge of the city and the edge of the countryside. Perfect for a visit to this beautiful city, very short walk along the lovely Bishop's palace moat to the city centre and cathedral.
