No. 26 - the B&B with a garden, where guests are guaranteed a warm Wells welcome and peaceful stay, sits nestled in the corner, well back off the Glastonbury Road and only a 20 minute stroll from Wells Cathedral. Overlooking the back garden, with views to the Mendip Hills, our Twin Guestroom with en suite shower and complimentary toiletries, is fitted with a flat screen TV, table top fridge, kettle and welcome tray. Guests can enjoy a continental breakfast (gluten free options available on request). Complimentary private parking and WiFi available to all guests.
