Hotels with Breakfast in Wells

We have been visiting the Swan for over 30 years, and have been saddened by the decline in standards in recent years. A simple order of an Americano with hot milk, and a cream tea turned out to be very disappointing. First the Americano came with hot milk in another cup, rather than a jug, a cup and saucer and the tea pot, with only one spoon for the two. I had to ask for some sugar, even though I had requested this when ordering. The hot milk inevitably spilt when being poured from the cup, into the coffee and still no sign of any milk to go with the tea, or another spoon!! After a wait of several more minutes eventually the scones, cream and jam arrived, with no napkin, and by which time the tea was stewed. Still no sign of some milk for the tea, or an additional spoon, so I had to request these and a fresh pot of tea, as by now the tea had been standing for about ten minutes and was no longer fresh. Once the additional spoon, milk and napkin arrived I thought we were set to enjoy the cream tea, but alas no. The scones were the worst I have ever had, being very chewy with the strangest texture I have ever experienced, and at age 71 I have had a lot of cream teas in my time!! Overall not an experience we would like to be repeated, or we will be looking for a new venue.

The Staff at the hotel was very friendly & helpful all the way through our stay, the food was great, and not expensive at all. The hotel room was cozy and very clean-as well as the rest of the hotel. We visited the caves and we was given % off our tickets.

We’ve just got home from a lovely long weekend staying at Worth House for our first anniversary. It’s a beautiful place, in a gorgeous area, and the hosts are absolutely lovely. Our room was restful; an incredibly comfortable bed with soft bedlinen. The view from the window was of a herd of cows in a rolling field, with the moon shining through the window at night. A delicious breakfast was served at the incredibly civilised time of 9:30am - no getting up with the lark on holiday! This wonderful hidden gem is a place that we’d both love to return to - we can’t praise it highly enough. Thank you so much Sarah, for the best weekend break!

Very friendly and welcoming, accommodating staff who are helpful with requests and a fab location right in the centre. Nice breakfasts. Rooms are exceptional value, albeit some areas / parts of the rooms are a little rough around the edges. Would definitely visit again. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Booked into the Ancient Gatehouse in Sept 2023 for one night. Communication before arriving was very good. The hotel itself if very old and a most beautiful building. I have seen some reviews commenting about the smell and the stairs etc, which is rather ridiculous. The building is about 500 years old! This only adds to the charm. Views from the back of the hotel are stunning as it looks directly towards Wells cathedral. I forget her name, but the manageress was most helpful and very friendly. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed when we stayed so we are looking forward to eating there when we return in a few months time. If you don't like old buildings and creaky stairs then stay in a Premier Inn. We loved it, hence our return for 2 nights soon which we are very much looking forward to in a bigger room.

WOW ! Our daughter got married on 27th August and as a family along with the grooms family we needed a base to stay in for the duration of the celebrations. We stayed for two nights but really wished it could have been longer. How very lucky we were to have booked here. Terri made us feel so welcome from the minute we stepped foot in the door. Greeted with kindness and a smile, The building and its furnishings are beautiful. The whole place is absolutely immaculate and as you land Terri invites you for a pot of tea and homemade scones in the beautiful courtyard garden. The rooms are spotless and contain everything you need and more for an excellent nights sleep. Terri’s breakfasts are simply amazing. An excellent array of cereals, nuts , fresh fruit, croissants and yoghurt followed by quite possibly the best cooked breakfast I’ve ever had anywhere. Our son enjoyed using the well stocked honesty bar and there was ample tea and coffee in the room. Nothing is too much trouble for Terri and this small but perfect hotel/ B&B is just simply OUTSTANDING Thank you Terri x
