"The property is beautifully decorated, clean to a very high standard and very well equipped with kitchen and cooking essentials, and lovely good quality linen and towels. Situated right in the heart of Wells, with easy walking distance to Cathedral and Waitrose it was in a very quiet area with no traffic noise, and a dedicated parking space. Thank you for a lovely stay and for the complimentary bottle of bubbles. A perfect place to stay."

The West Front, Cathedral View - Hot Tub - Pets - Free Parking & WiFi

10/10 Excellent

"Such an amazing get away. Was meant to stay 4 nights but decided to stay longer. The place was very tranquil and views amazing. Located very close to Wells. A very beautiful village with lots of history. Michael was very welcoming. Anything we needed was no trouble. He told us some amazing places to visit. We got to see the farm and meet the cows. Definitely will be going back."

St Etheldreda's Cottage, lovingly restored and impeccably presented

10/10 Excellent

"A beautifully decorated and welcoming home. It was a pleasure to be able to stay there. Everything was provided that we might have needed. No problem parking in the adjacent street. Very good bus service to Glastonbury where we spent a lovely day and buses to plenty of other places if we’d had a longer stay. Wells is a lovely and quite compact city and we had a great time just pottering round all the interesting places. The cathedral is magnificent and well worth a guided tour. The only downside was the journey home with very long traffic jams! Thanks to Helen and Mark for their hospitality."

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great place. The location is excellent, about five minutes' walk to the market square and cathedral. Everything spotless and in good working order. Plenty of room in the apartment, conveniently laid out. Totally quiet and peaceful. Wifi worked perfectly. Parking was tight (Audi A3) but manageable. Highly recommended!"

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Rock House. It is such a beautifully appointed property with all the amenities you could ask for to make your stay perfect. Location was ideal as it is in the heart of Wells and everything is within walking distance. Wells is also a great base to explore the wonderful sites of Somerset. The provision of parking spaces nearby is such an asset and reflects the attention to detail the owners have put into Rock House to make it an ideal getaway. We wouldnâ€™t hesitate to recommend Rock House."
