Details

Wells Cottages are a pair of beautifully appointed self catering holiday homes that can be found in a central location in Wells, Somerset. Our holiday homes are ideally located, with all of the attractions and amenities including the tourist information centre, Bishop's Palace and cathedral, very close by.

Carden Cottage: Dates back to the 17th Century and is a beautiful holiday home with generously sized rooms. The large lounge/diner has a feature stone fireplace and wood burner, there is a solid oak kitchen/diner and a rear courtyard and a private front, lawned garden with seating area and BBQ. Upstairs at Carden Cottage there are two bedrooms and a family bathroom; a master double with feature brass and metal bed frame and window shutters and a single bedroom which has space for either a comfy camp bed or a cot.

Mews Cottage: Completely renovated, furnished and equipped with the utmost style and comfort, Mews Cottage oozes charm and panache and is cozy, welcoming and warm. The cottage sleeps 3 people in 2 bedrooms. Small private courtyard and private parking. The kitchen/diner includes double oven cooker and hob, microwave, fridge with freezer compartment, Bosch pod coffee maker, kettle, toaster and dishwasher. The lounge has comfortable seating, TV/DVD with Freeview, HiFi, MP3, DAB system and free BT business broadband. There are two bedrooms - master double with Cathedral view and walk-in wardrobe and a single room with space for a camp bed or cot. The bathroom has a bath with shower over, a low level WC and basin.

The magnificent Cathedral of St Andrew is a must see! Regular guided tours last about 45 minutes and are well worth your time. Evensong daily at 5.15pm (3pm on Sunday). Main Sunday service 9.45am. Don't forget to see the famous clock (inside and out), dating back to the 1300s; every 15 minutes jousting knights pop out! The Cathedral Green is a popular place to sit and relax. Spend an hour or so in the Museum which houses fascinating fossils and minerals including pearls from Wookey Hole Caves, an impressive Stone/Iron age collection, antique samplers and regular special exhibitions. Just up from the Museum is the music hall where free, short, lunchtime concerts are held by very talented children from the Cathedral School (usually at 1pm). Next to the cathedral is The Bishop's Palace, a fantastic 13th Century building within 14 acres of beautiful gardens and a huge moat - do stroll around this as it is a super walk with plenty of benches to stop for a rest to take in the magnificence. The Palace is also a popular venue for wedding receptions. Enter through The Bishop's Eye archway at top of Market Place. Take some bread to feed the ducks and see the swans.

Open air markets are held in the market place every Wednesday and Saturday and there are regular antique fairs and oriental carpet sales in the adjacent town hall. Vicars Close, just off Chain Gate, dates from the early 15th century and is one of the best preserved Medieval streets in Europe. The tall chimneys which are very special were added in the 15th century.
