The stunning Bishop's Palace has been the home of the Bishops of the Diocese of Bath and Wells for more than 800 years. Construction began around 1210 and continued into the 15th century. The Grade I-listed palace is adjacent to Wells Cathedral, another very impressive building within this historic city. There are beautiful gardens to explore at the palace, too.

Bishop's Palace and Moat, Wells

Highlight • Monument

A really beautiful City. The smallest in England. The cathedral is the residence of the bishop of Bath and Somerset. Lovely place to stop and enjoy a coffee in the gardens.
