This restored 15th century coaching inn is situated in the heart of the small medieval city of Wells, by the cathedral green, just metres away from the ancient marketplace.
Situated in the city centre, the hotel is a great base from which to discover historic Wells and the surrounding areas of beauty and interest in Somerset. Bristol, Bath, Glastonbury, Cheddar, Clarks Village, Wookey Hole and Longleat are all close by.
The White Hart Hotel is now a well-established fixture in Wells, offering bed and breakfast accommodation.
The hotel offers 14 refurbished en suite bedrooms, a large function and banqueting suite and a ground-floor restaurant. All of the rooms are individually decorated and many still retain some of the more interesting original historical features of the building, while simultaneously incorporating modern comforts and facilities. Located at the entrance to the cathedral green and just metres away from the ancient marketplace, the hotel is in a great location for exploring historic Wells and all of the points of interest and areas of natural beauty in the surrounding regions.
Wells is the smallest city in England, with a population of just over 11,000. The city is set in the foothills of the Mendips, with the Somerset Levels and Moors to the south. Wells’ Cathedral is probably one of the finest examples of a gothic cathedral anywhere in Europe. With Vicars' Close and the Bishop's Palace and its moat next door, the cathedral is a great place for a memorable visit.
The famous Wookey Hole Caves are situated on the outskirts of Wells. The caves were once owned by Madame Tussaud’s and the caverns themselves are breathtaking. Guided tours are available and the site also boasts the oldest working paper mill in Britain and a marvellous 19th century penny arcade.
The spectacular Cheddar Gorge, with its caves and wonderful walks, is an attraction in itself. Owned by the Marquis of Bath, the gorge offers a wealth of natural beauty and is well worth a visit. The Harts Head Suite is the hotel’s self-contained conference and banqueting room and is situated on the first floor. October 2002 saw the completion of extensive renovations to the suite, resulting in one of the largest conference and banqueting suites in the area.
The suite is ideal for a wide variety of conference and meeting uses and can be set up in a boardroom, theatre, horseshoe or classroom-style arrangement. When set up in a theatre-style layout, the suite can accommodate up to 150 people. This formal meeting room includes audiovisual facilities, and the available conference facilities include a flip chart, overhead projector, projection screen, TV and video and fax and photocopier. The hotel also offers secretarial services, the services of a conference coordinator, free car parking, syndicate areas, cordials and mints. The large, light, airy room has large windows, offering plenty of natural daylight.
The facilities include an adjoining bar, which also makes the suite ideal for weddings, discos and large-scale parties, as well as smaller gatherings, such as dinner parties. The suite can accommodate up to 120 seated guests or 200 guests for a buffet or disco. There is a generous selection of competitively priced menus available for your event and the experienced staff can offer help and guidance with any wedding or other function. The hotel can also entertain smaller dinner parties of 30 to 40 guests.
