The Coach House is a fantastic base for exploring Wells, Glastonbury and further afield. We stayed here for two nights and really enjoyed ourselves. It is a great place if... read more you like the comfort of a B and B, but the flexibility and space of self-catering. We had ample breakfast supplies, and the kitchen was well-stocked, with everything we needed. Karen was there to meet us, and was on hand if we needed anything, without being obtrusive. In short, lots of room, everything we needed and a great place to stay. We're already planning our next visit. We'd recommend lunch or dinner at the Sheppey Inn (only a few miles away).

Situated in an easily accessible yet secluded country village, it offers unobstructed views of the magnificent Wells Cathedral from the master bedroom feature window, which in itself is very much cathedral-like! What's more, you can walk right across the fields from Dulcote to the Bishop's Palace and Wells old town without setting foot on a metalled road.
The Coach House has everything you need, a full kitchen, amply supplied with delicious breakfast bits and eggs laid by the resident hens. The sitting room/dining room is spacious and well presented, it has a very nice homely feel. The bathroom is modern and bright, as are both the master and second bedroom.
It's a great place to get away from it all, experience some wholesome country living and explore Wells and the surrounding area.
Karen was very welcoming and made sure we always had everything we needed - we have already decided to come back next time we need a countryside top up.

Only a short drive to Cheddar, Glastonbury, Ham Wall nature reserve, Priddy and the Mendips. We even ventured to Bath and Stonehenge. There is so much so see and do in this beautiful part of the country and returning to Little Fountains after a busy day was a delight. We will definitely return.

The Coachhouse is well situated for a walk into Well's, approx 30 minutes off road, where there is a market on Saturdays and Wednesdays and some lovely pubs, restaurants and coffee shops. There is also the Bishops Palace and the Cathedral to visit.
We took our bikes and Karen let us store them in the garage, so they were locked away safely. We cycled nearly everyday. On the national cycle route number 3, we cycled to the Glastonbury Tor, a must for the surrounding veiws and then went into Glastonbury. We also cycled to Wookey Hole and then up onto the Mendip hills. There is a lovely pub at Priddy, to stop for lunch!
We also visited Bath and went to the Thermae Baths, book in advance! We went to a lovely greek restaurant afterwards, The Meze Jar, superb greek food! Again book, it was very popular!
All in all we had a lovely time, it was the first week in August, but the weather was very mixed. The Coachhouse and it's location made up for the weather and we really enjoyed our stay.
