We had a wonderful week at Rock House. The house has everything you could need and is in a great location. Before visiting we wondered how noisy it may be outside as the address is The High Street, but we found it very quiet. A huge bonus is all the great eating places just a short walk away along with the cathedral and Bishops Palace. We all found the beds comfortable and the house was absolutely spotless. Would love to return again!

We had a lovely stay at Rock House. It’s full of character and has been beautifully renovated, with furniture and decor that really suit the style of the house. The kitchen had everything we needed and was really well equipped.The location couldn’t have been better – right opposite St Cuthbert’s Church and just a short walk to the Cathedral, the Bishop’s Palace and all the other sights in Wells. There are loads of great pubs and restaurants just around the corner too. We’d definitely recommend Rock House to anyone looking for the perfect place to stay in Wells.
