About Beryl Country House

Beryl Country House is a small Victorian Gothic mansion set in thirteen acres of parkland on the edge of Wells, reached along a private drive that gives little hint of the city just a mile away. The house has been run by the same family for decades as an adults-only guest house, with eight individually decorated rooms mixing antique furniture with modern bathrooms.

Public rooms include a grand entrance hall, a drawing room and a dining room where breakfasts are cooked to order using local and often home-grown produce. Outside, manicured lawns and borders surround an outdoor swimming pool, open through the summer months, and there is ample private parking on site.

Its setting in the Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty makes it a quiet base for visiting Wells, Wookey Hole and Cheddar Gorge, while remaining close enough to walk into the city centre for dinner.
