Itinerary

Day 1 We travel west to the beautiful cathedral city of Salisbury before continuing to our hotel in Wells.

Day 2 After a leisurely breakfast, a drive into the Mendip Hills takes us up to Cheddar and a breathtaking route through the famous limestone gorge. Your Cheddar Explorer ticket includes the magnificent Gough’s Cave*, where you can see the cathedral-like caverns decorated with unbelievable rock formations, Cox’s Cave*, the Museum of Prehistory and ‘Beyond The View’, a virtual tour where you feel you are flying through the gorge.

Day 3 We spend our day in Bath, a protected World Heritage Site, and full of architectural wonders. You might like to visit the Royal Crescent, Pulteney Bridge lined with tiny shops, the Roman Baths, or Pump Room. The town is filled with high street and independent shops, cafés and restaurants, where you can relax and watch the world go by.

Day 4 Step out from our historic hotel and explore Wells, England’s smallest city, with its cobbled streets, medieval architecture, compact historic centre, magnificent cathedral and unique moated Bishops Palace. In the afternoon, join your driver on a drive to Clevedon, a beautiful Victorian town with a listed pier, ornamental gardens and a relaxing promenade.

Day 5 Departing after breakfast, we travel to the Clarks Village complex in Street, with over 90 different stores including high street brands & designer goods. We continue eastwards to our homes.
