Very welcoming and friendly people (especially after a 12 mile hike). Room was comfortable and warm, I got a great night's sleep and had a wonderful breakfast in the morning. In short, a wonderful place for a short break.

Charming B&B in Wells. Though the room wasn't huge, it was comfy and the owners were very friendly and helpful. Freshly cooked English breakfast in the morning was great and was largely locally sourced. There is a car park - but do let the owners know that you're bringing a car when you book as parking is tight.

I needed have worried as when we arrived we were greeted by a big smile from Vanessa, whatever we asked for was a pleasure for Vanessa to do for us. When we go back to this area... More

Working away from home. I've stayed here before and would recommend to anyone. Freindly hosts, excellent food and functional but well appointed rooms.

The proprietors were very friendly and helpful, and the room was tastefully and comfortably furnished. Being at the back of the house we had a lovely view of the Mendips and it was quiet. There was a good choice of things to eat and drink for breakfast, and the cooked items were nicely done.

My two friends and I spent 4 nights at Mendip House and did day trips out in all four directions. This is a lovely old Victorian house with a view of the Mendip Hills and the room was very nice with plenty of room for 3 twin beds and had a huge Victorian bay window to the street. The breakfasts... More

We received a friendly and warm welcome. The room was clean, comfortable and quiet. Assistance was provided with parking and clear directions were given on walking into Wells with recommendations for meals and sites to see. Even when the hot water service flooded downstairs in the morning we were catered for and explanations given.

The room we had (Cherry) was very big and is suitable for a family. It had a... More
