Top Thornham Hotel Reviews

The Globe Inn Wells

The Globe Inn Wells

8/10 Good
"We found the room was reasonably comfortable, but it was unfortunate that where we were staying the bedroom window was permanently frosted so we didn’t have a view out. There was a restaurant on site which we used on one evening, however, we found it to be somewhat overpriced. We also felt it seemed to be going through an identity crisis as it gave the appearance of a high end eating place and yet it was full of noisy dogs, babies, and toddlers. This made it difficult to enjoy a nice relaxed meal. Breakfast was excellent with lots of options available. The only parking available is on the road outside which resulted in a fairly long walk from the car with a suitcase."

"Lovely!! Perfect location on route to coast. Stayed in the main house, super huge cosy twin room with everything we needed, really clean and beds comfy. Staff were super helpful from the moment we checked in, the pub next door was cute and welcoming bar staff and friendly guests all chatting. Managed to get a swim & steam in before checking out, loved it! It’s not a modern hotel but clean and felt like a treat to stay. The tea & biscuits in the room was a nice touch. Would recommend 🙂"
