Full Property Description

Internally, this house offers traditional decor and furnishings throughout. Externally, there is a furnished garden perfect for enjoying the delightful atmosphere that this property is surrounded by.

This charming property was originally built for the men of the Vicars’ Choir in 1360, a tradition that is still upheld by many of the inhabitants of the street today. 14 Vicars Close is located on the oldest inhabited street in Europe and adjoins the Close Chapel with excellent views of the Cathedral and its surrounding grounds.

Stepping through the arch onto the cobbled street of the Close, you are just a short walk from the busy High Street of the City of Wells. The smallest city in England, historic Wells offers a variety of shops and restaurants and is on the edge of the beautiful Mendip Hills. Venturing slightly further afield, you are just a short journey from many popular attractions such as Wookey Hole Caves, Cheddar Gorge and Glastonbury.

"Our stay at Vicars close was lovely and relaxing. We put in the car in the car park and left it there, we did not need it as Wells is compact and easy to get around. The house was lovely & clean and plenty of space to move around in. 4 bedrooms so lots of choice of where to sleep. All in all a pleasant holiday in a wonderful house. And yes we would come again." Anthony, March 2013
