Little St. Johns

About this property

Tucked away in the small city of Wells, Somerset sits this old lovingly renovated cobbler’s cottage, Little St. Johns. Retaining much of its character with beamed ceilings, a woodburning stove and hard wooden floors, this one-bedroom property is ideal for a couple seeking an adventure. On arrival, unload your luggage outside the home before finding parking nearby and admire the pink front door and the stone-fronted exterior. Step inside to discover the open-plan living space, home to an inglenook fire with a woodburning stove, so you can curl up with a hot chocolate as the flames flicker. The stylish kitchen area houses everything you need for a self-catered stay, including an electric oven, induction hob, a Belfast sink, as well as a dishwasher for keep the space tidy. When meals are served, dine together on the stools, and savour a glass of wine as you recount the day’s events. A Smart TV offers entertainment for the evening or why not read a good book to take advantage of your quaint setting? As your eyes grow heavy, climb upstairs, and prepare for bed in the shower room, beautifully tiled and designed to a contemporary finish. When sleep calls, a double bed awaits, and you can house your personal belongings in the wardrobe and enjoy getting ready at the dressing table. Awaken with a cup of tea as your other half rustles up a home-cooked breakfast or why not step outside to sample the selection of independent cafes on your doorstep? Delve into the history of Wells with a visit to the 12th-century Cathedral and the wonderful grounds of The Bishop's Palace & Gardens, or if that's not for you, test your swing on the green at Wells golf Club.
