“We stayed in The Cider Barn Wookey.”

Clean, well appointed facilities in cottage. Single beds were a little hard for me..but that could just be preferential to me. Cosy and warm. The only main draw back was no internet and running your own business, even when on a break needs keeping an eye on ..so.. internet access would be good.

“Idyllic contry location with places and walks to visit near by.”

Clean and comfortable. Perfect for a relaxing holiday.
Mrs Gardiner October 2018

“If you want a really relaxing holiday this is the place for you!”

Once through the door we were quite happy to stay put! Lovely situation, near enough to Wells and Glastonbury. One of the best Sykes Cottage we have stayed in.

“Fantastic accommodation but needs WIFI.”
Mr McCrea September 2018

“Nice cottage didn't lack anything as regards cooking etc.”

- lovely area plenty to see and do without going miles Wells a lovely city use long stay parking very inexpensive - owner helpful but left us alone o get on with things - downside no wi-fi - good job private parking as local pub often has cars/vans parked outside cottage. Was not impressed with Ring O' Bells pub Sunday lunch as drowned meal in gravy would have been better in jug! Didn't go again once bitten - Pheasant along road had excellent meal

Visited here several times hopefully next month again. Very close to the local pub. Very clean. Nice owner lives next door very helpful. Lounge and kitchen downstairs two nice bedrooms upstairs. Great!

“It was a lovely cottage with good facilities, great access to motorways, Bristol, Wells, National Trust properties, the Chew Valley, the pub 'The Ring O' Bells' and shops and supermarkets, generally in a good spot.”

I had a very relaxing time. But where is the internet, lack of it was a big miss and having to go out to get access was inconvenient and it meant I couldn't get things like iplayer and emails in the cottage.

“The Old Cider Barn was very comfortable, spacious and equipped.”

The parking space next to it was ample. The owner Mr Spearing was welcoming and helpful. The village of Wookey was attractive and quiet with good access to places of interest to us in all directions. The pub next door was very good with excellent food, beer and ciders, and with very friendly staff. We enjoyed the freshly baked bread from the flour mill at the edge of the village, local meat and cheeses from the butcher and fresh fish and veg from the fishmonger both in nearby Wedmore. There was plenty to see and do in this very beautiful part of the country, with more still to see.

“We really enjoyed our stay at The Old Cider Barn.”

The owner was very welcoming and helpful and the cottage met all our expectations and was clean, beautifully furnished and decorated and well equipped.The location was great for visiting Wookey Hole and nearby Wells with its beautiful Cathedral. Lovely walks nearby as well.

“A very clean Cottage ,with all you could need in it , perfect base for a good 30 mile radius around it , plenty to see and do , made to feel very welcome by the owner , would highly recommend it to any couple with or without children .”

It is next door to a Village Pub that sells outstanding food , but no noise from it that would disturb you .

The property

The Old Cider Barn is situated in the quiet village of Wookey at the foot of the Mendip Hills.

With its stunning limestone gorges and caves, the wetlands of the Somerset Levels and the spectacular northern coastline, a visit to this picturesque region will not disappoint.

Well designed and finished to a high standard, The Old Cider Barn is charming; light and spacious throughout with wooden floors and a handsome bespoke staircase.

A selection of paintings by local artists adds to the friendly ambience of the cottage which comprises large lounge, well equipped kitchen/diner, two bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Enjoy a BBQ in the small courtyard garden, or if you don't feel like cooking the cosy, child-friendly 16th century Ring O' Bells pub is just a short walk from the cottage, and serves home cooked meals.

About the location

WELLS

Coxley 2 miles; Shepton Mallet 6 miles; Glastonbury 6 miles; Cheddar 9 miles.

Wells, England’s smallest city, is named after the springs which still bubble up today in the grounds of its splendid Bishop's Palace with its famous moat. Adjacent is the beautiful 12th century cathedral situated within a most attractive cathedral close and green. Nearby, Vicars Close is home to the oldest complete medieval street in Europe, and the quaint market square offers an array of interesting shops, boutiques and restaurants, and a colourful twice-weekly market. The surrounding Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty provides a wealth of scenic footpaths and rugged landscapes, and is a superb base for caving and rock climbing, and for road, biking and mountain biking. Nearby are the attractions of Cheddar Gorge and Wookey Hole Caves, both offering great days out. The picturesque Somerset Levels, as well as mystical Glastonbury are also situated an easy drive away. The beautiful city of Bath, with its Roman Baths, Thermae Bath Spa, The Theatre Royal and wonderful shops, is under 30 miles away, as is the vibrant city of Bristol, which boasts a multitude of attractions, including The Zoo, Theatres, the Aquarium, the Arnol Fini Art Gallery and many more. All in all, this beautiful city makes a convenient and ideal touring base. With so much to see and do, there is something to keep everyone entertained!
