We loved our stay at the Chestnut Cottage and Sarah and Lee were wonderful hosts. Super comfortable beds and the kitchen has everything you can think of. The garden is a brilliant size and very tranquil. Great location for exploring the Mendips, we did lots of great cycling and hikes. We’ll definitely come back and highly recommend.

This is an excellent family run property.
This is an excellent family run property. It is located perfectly just out of town on the site of the old Wells to Glastonbury railway line (which is sadly not walkable). Perfect welcome, welcome pack and very warm reception

My daughter & I enjoyed a relaxing week at Chestnut Cottage, so conveniently located between Glaston
My daughter & I enjoyed a relaxing week at Chestnut Cottage, so conveniently located between Glastonbury & Wells.The fantastic accommodation easily made up for the heavy rain during our stay. We were quite content spending time indoors, enjoying the box of treats and settling down in the cosy and beautifully decorated lounge, with its fantastic view over the garden.
