Sightseeing

We love the 13th century moated Bishop’s Palace and gardens, it is the seat of the Bishop of Bath & Wells, famous for its swans who twice daily ring the bell beside the drawbridge for food.

The cathedral is one of the architectural highlights of Britain, replete with magnificent Gothic carvings, a unique scissors vault to brace the building against shifting medieval foundations and a marvellous chapter house. It also houses a wonderful clock, with mechanical knights who exchange blows every hour.
