White Hart Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Had a brilliant stay here. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful, the room was clean, spacious and had everything you'd need. Location was excellent, right in the middle of the city. And the pub itself was amazing, with a great selection of beers and some of the best pub food I've ever eaten. Will definitely be returning if we end up back in Wells"

"The property is beautifully decorated, clean to a very high standard and very well equipped with kitchen and cooking essentials, and lovely good quality linen and towels. Situated right in the heart of Wells, with easy walking distance to Cathedral and Waitrose it was in a very quiet area with no traffic noise, and a dedicated parking space. Thank you for a lovely stay and for the complimentary bottle of bubbles. A perfect place to stay."

"Lovely spacious, clean & comfortable apartment in excellent location few minutes walk to Wells & shops. Good place to stay for exploring other attractions around the area, Cheddar Gorge, Haynes Motor Museum, Bath, etc. I would highly recommend especially for a couple. Not suitable for wheelchair bound or those who have difficulty with stairs as it is situated on the fourth floor with four flights of stairs to climb."

Spacious Townhouse, Private Parking, Central Wells

"We enjoyed our 6 nights at the wells townhouse. The house was clean and well appointed. Will was quick to respond to any questions we had and the location couldn’t have been more perfect, just minutes to the city center."

The West Front, Cathedral View - Hot Tub - Pets - Free Parking & WiFi

10/10 Excellent

"Such an amazing get away. Was meant to stay 4 nights but decided to stay longer. The place was very tranquil and views amazing. Located very close to Wells. A very beautiful village with lots of history. Michael was very welcoming. Anything we needed was no trouble. He told us some amazing places to visit. We got to see the farm and meet the cows. Definitely will be going back."

St Etheldreda's Cottage, lovingly restored and impeccably presented

10/10 Excellent

"A beautifully decorated and welcoming home. It was a pleasure to be able to stay there. Everything was provided that we might have needed. No problem parking in the adjacent street. Very good bus service to Glastonbury where we spent a lovely day and buses to plenty of other places if we’d had a longer stay. Wells is a lovely and quite compact city and we had a great time just pottering round all the interesting places. The cathedral is magnificent and well worth a guided tour. The only downside was the journey home with very long traffic jams! Thanks to Helen and Mark for their hospitality."
