The Crossways

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous hotel , staff very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The evening meal was fabulous and great value for money. Will definitely be staying at this hotel again."

White Hart Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable, clean room. Great value for money. Second time I've stayed here and I'm sure I'll be back again"

Worth House

10/10 Excellent

"Due to roadworks etc we rang to let them know we would be arriving quite late. The host was so understanding and welcoming. It took the stress out of our unexpectedly long journey. Worth House is lovely, quirky and beautiful. We loved our room, it was clean, tidy and well maintained. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. We would definitely recommend as a great place to stay."

Beaconsfield Farm

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay here whilst visiting lots of places of interest nearby. The view of the hills was marvellous. It was near to Wells and not too far out from town but rural enough to be peaceful and tranquil. The lodge had everything you needed and the bed was comfy for a good nights sleep that’s all that we could have asked for."

The Ancient Gatehouse Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was lovely, very well situated with wonderful views of the Cathedral. The staff were extremely helpful and the breakfast was very good, with local produce and additional extras - nothing was too much trouble. The building is very old and I would assume listed so the decor reflects that in keeping the original features such as the steep stairs which were actually fine to climb. Overall lovely stay and would definitely stay again."

The Horseshoe Inn

8/10 Good

"The staff were very friendly and helpful. My mattress was very soft, someone overweight would struggle with that I thought."

The Wesley Apartment
