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 Wesley Apartment

10/10 Excellent

"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."
