| Property Description: |
Backing onto woodland, Infield House is beautifully restored Victorian townhouse lovingly appointed with period furnishings, portraits and decor.
It is conveniently located just a few minutes' walk from the city centre with all its shops and amenities and the magnificent Cathedral and Bishop's Palace.
Wells is a good touring centre for much of the South-West of England, including Bristol, Bath and as far as Salisbury. Set at the foot of the Mendip Hills, Wells itself is very picturesque.
There is a comfortable guest lounge with bookcases well stocked with local and regional guides and as well as other reading material.
Infield House has a spacious private car park at the rear of the house.
Please note that it is a "no-smoking" guest house.
Rooms:
Each of the guest rooms (one twin and two doubles) features an original Victorian fireplace.
One has a luxurious en-suite bathroom, complete with bidet and spa-bath facility, which can be hired at a small extra charge.
The others each have an en-suite shower and WC. They are each provided with tea and coffee making facilities, colour TV, luggage rack, clock-radio, hair-dryer and individual central heating controls.
Breakfast:
Breakfast is served in the charming dining room with its Adam style fireplace. Tables are organised to accommodate single guests, couples or groups.
Guests may choose from a cold buffet of juice, cereals, yoghurt and fresh fruit followed by a wide choice of traditional English or vegetarian cooked breakfast and a full pot of tea or coffee with refills as desired.
Evening Meals:
Evening meals are available by pre-arrangement on night of arrival or on request at breakfast time. Guests are offered 3 courses plus tea or coffee from a wide choice of menu, which includes vegetarian dishes. Alternatively there are many establishments offering a variety of meals in the area.
Location:
We are conveniently located just a few minutes' walk to St. Cuthbert's church near the start of the High Street with all its amenities.
The Market Square, Cathedral, Bishop's Palace and other historical buildings are just a brief stroll further along the colourful High Street.
Known as England's smallest city, Wells, situated at the foot of the Mendip Hills, has charm, interesting shops, decent restaurants and St. Cuthbert's Church, a parish church so impressive that it is often mistaken for a cathedral.
The real jewel of the city is the walled precinct enclosing twelfth century Wells cathedral, the Bishop's Palace, an impressive, moated medieval stronghold which is the residence of the Bishop of Bath and Wells, and Vicar's Close, the oldest inhabited street in Europe.
The cathedral, itself, is notable for several unique features including its west front, which is said to be the finest collection of statuary in Europe, containing 356 individual figures carved out of the cathedral's warm, yellow Doulting stone. Inside, at the east end of the nave, you will see an unusual scissored arch design of striking beauty, which saved the cathedral's central tower from collapse in 1338.
