Nice cottage in a very quite surrounding, everything in it, including the welcome basket, made us feel very welcome and at ease. Confortable beds and everything was there for a nice 4 days stay. Nice place for visiting Wells, Bath, Cheddar gorge ...... and surrounding area.

Excellent place to stay. Definitely recommend and it's very cozy with the fire as we stayed here end of January/early February. The town of Wells isn't far either for groceries. We went to Chedder Gorge and Glastonbury which aren't far away from Wooky Hole. Lovely home and clean. I took my dog and he was happy here as well.

Lovely cpttage literally within walking distance of the caves.. Great facilities, roomy and pretty. We loved the story of the conversion and the information book was filled with useful stuff. Also convenient for the surrounding area - Wells, Glastonbury etc. Would definitely recommend

We had a lovely stay here. The house manager was lovely and very welcoming. She responded quickly the one time we had an issue & worked hard to try and fix it. Unfortunately she was not successful and we were without Internet our entire stay...this was compounded by no phone reception in the cottage. The small private garden isn't as described on tRead morehe website. It's down a narrow, slippery path and is not secure - the gate doesn't close. Not ideal for dogs. Other than than a nice weekend trip. Hide

Lovely position and very quiet in spite of being directly behind the pub (which was superb!) and across the road from Wookey Holes main car parkI would think that in high season parking might be a problem? The lady looking after the cottage (Teresa) was so helpful and she was based just along the roadnothing was too much trouble for her..

Good location for exploring the beautiful city of Wells and the surrounding Somerset countryside. There is a wonderful circular walk from Wookey Hole to Ebbor Gorge. Suggest travelling for a restaurant, to Wells -The Fountain Inn, Goodfellows and Rugatinos and also the Burcott Inn at Wookey. All need booking in advance.
