4-star holiday home with countryside views of Glastonbury Tor in Wells
Amenities
Walnut Lodge offers a private garden where guests can eat outdoors while watching wildlife such as woodpeckers. Paid on-site private parking is available for guests arriving by car. The property provides free WiFi throughout the lodge.
Rooms
The one-bedroom holiday home has a private entrance and a fully equipped kitchen with everything needed for self-catering. The bathroom includes a good-sized shower for the space, and the bed was described by guests as extremely comfortable and hard to leave. The lodge deliberately has no television, which guests appreciated as it preserves the peaceful setting and connection to the outdoors.
Location
Wells Cathedral is 5 km from the lodge, making it a short drive to this historic landmark. Wookey Hole Caves are 6 km away, offering natural underground attractions. Bristol Airport is 31 km distant, and Longleat House is 39 km from the property.
Guest Experience
Guests receive a thoughtful welcome gift and the flexibility of a later checkout, which made stays more relaxed. During a heatwave, the lodge remained impressively cool, and a fan was provided for additional comfort. The veranda overlooks Glastonbury Tor and allows guests to sit outside and watch sunsets even in light rain.
Highlights
Views: Overlooking Glastonbury Tor from the veranda
Garden: Private, peaceful space with wildlife spotting
Room: One-bedroom with no TV for undisturbed quiet
Service: Welcome gift and later checkout included
Climate: Lodge stays cool in heatwave, fan provided
“Walnut Lodge truly captures a sense of escape; the views of Glastonbury Tor from the porch were something I could happily return for, especially with the thoughtful welcome touches and the surprising coolness within the cabin, even during a heatwave. The lodge itself felt perfectly appointed, a credit to the care taken in its design, making it feel both secluded and remarkably comfortable.”
James DavidEditor-in-Chief at Uksomerset
