Sightseeing
View from Deer Leap
One of our favourite views can be seen at Deer Leap, near Ebbor Gorge, between Wells and Priddy. On a clear day, you can see Wells Cathedral and Glastonbury Tor, over to Brean Down and across the Bristol Channel to Wales. This view can take your breath away.

A short drive to Wells Cathedral and the swans in the moat. The cathedral is set in the medieval heart of England’s smallest city and is the earliest English cathedral to be built in the Gothic style. It houses a most interesting clock and has been described as "the most poetic of England's great Cathedrals.
Wells is great for wandering around, especially on market days - Wednesday and Saturday
