In addition there are 3 pubs, a delicatessen and a number of tea rooms. Everything you need is just a short walk away!
Should you want to venture further away, the City of Wells is not far and the cathedral and Bishops Palace should be seen.
Glastonbury Tor and Abbey and Cheddar Gorge should also be on your list to visit. The surrounding countryside is known for its views so walkers and cyclist will enjoy all that the Mendip Hills, which are an area of outstanding natural beauty, have to offer. Ornothologists will enjoy the Somerset Levels which is well known for its National Nature Reserves.
Slightly far afield but yet still under an hour’s drive are the Georgian city of Bath and Bristol which are well worth visiting. The beautiful long beaches at Weston-super-Mare are close by as is Longleat safari park which is a good day trip. Should you want to stay closer to home you can easily arrange golf, shooting and fishing within a few miles of Wilf’s Cottage. Short breaks are available at this property but you may find that you want to stay for longer!
