Boasting exclusively brewed beer, homemade food and a pub garden, The George Inn is located in Wells. 5 km from Wells Cathedral and 6 km from Wookey Hole Caves, the property features a terrace. The inn offers a British restaurant.

The food was fabulous and owners/staff very friendly. I stayed in a single room which had a very comfortable bed and en-suite shower and toilet.

This former 15th-century coaching inn offers en-suite accommodation with limited parking for small cars on site. The Crown is situated in the heart of Wells, in Somerset and William Penn once preached there in 1695.

Lovely room, wonderful and substantial breakfast, and a great restaurant/bar with delicious food and great drinks. The staff were all helpful, friendly and welcoming. We would love to return in the future. Lots of fun history here, too. Close to everything in Wells.

Just yards away from the ancient market place, the hotel reflects authentic period charm with its centuries-old spiral stone staircase and quaint little passages.

The Ancient Gatehouse & Rugantino Restaurant boasts the excellent Rugantino Restaurant, specialising in authentic Italian cuisine, with a welcoming ambience.

The staff was amazing and accommodating. I highly recommend dinner on the patio at sunset.

The Mendip Inn has a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Binegar. This 4-star inn features free WiFi and a bar. The property is non-smoking and is situated 26 km from Bath Spa Train Station.

Nice clean rooms, very warm and cozy. It was a pleasant surprise to receive a packed breakfast as a bonus. We were mesmerized with a beautiful countryside, the building is very old, but well-maintained, and has its special charm.

Longleat Safari Park is 45 km from the guest house, while Longleat House is 46 km from the property. The nearest airport is Bristol Airport, 37 km from Glastonbury Hideaway.

Andy and Julie were so kind to us, and also offered suggestions for local itinerary. The Hideaway room was amazing, with lots of little thoughtful touches and gorgeously decorated. The garden view outside was lovely and so enjoyable. We slept like rocks in the comfortable and cool Hideaway. We cannot recommend this gem enough for a stay in the Glastonbury area. We will definitely stay here on future visits!

    Great location for our 2 night stopover on the way to Cornwall. Perfect location to visit both Wells & Glastonbury, Old Ford Cottage is perfect with great garden and facilities, stayed in the quaint Burcott Room with beautiful en-suite bathroom with roll top bath. Karen & Dave great hosts with great local tips on Cafes/ Restaurants and fully recommend the Continental breakfast to start the day. Would definitely return when we visit the area again.
