Award-Winning 15th-Century Bed and Breakfast in Wells
Awards & Recognition
The Cross at Croscombe was named B&B of the Year 2024/25 in the Bristol, Bath & Somerset Tourism Awards. It was also a finalist in the 'B&B and Guest House of the Year' category in 2020/21. This 15th-century Grade II listed building has been converted from a pub into an award-winning accommodation.
Accommodation & Amenities
The property offers family rooms and self-catering options with kitchenettes in some units. Guests have access to a spacious courtyard garden with outdoor dining, a lounge, and an honesty bar. An electric vehicle charging point is available on-site for guest use.
Dining & Breakfast
Breakfast includes a buffet and à la carte menu with warm dishes, fresh pastries, and fruits, plus a full English cooked to order. The hotel provides packed lunches for guests heading out on excursions. Special diet menus are available upon request, and a bar is on the premises.
Location & Activities
The Cross sits in the village of Croscombe, two miles from Wells Cathedral and a short drive from Glastonbury Abbey and the Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Guests can rent bicycles or hire a car through the property to explore the region. The George pub, located a two-minute walk away, offers evening meals and has been recommended by the owner.
Family-Friendly Features
Family rooms with separate sleeping areas and kitchenettes accommodate groups of up to five. The courtyard garden provides a safe outdoor space for children. Game selection in the lounge and personalized activity recommendations from the host enhance the family experience.

“The Cross at Croscombe is a thoughtfully renovated former pub, where Mary and Terri's genuine hospitality shines through, from warm welcomes with tea and scones to exceptional, locally-sourced breakfasts. Its beautifully appointed rooms, like the spacious Sheppey with its roll-top bath, coupled with a charming courtyard, make for a truly comfortable stay. This property feels less like a B&B and more like a welcoming haven, ideally placed for exploring the best of Somerset.”
