Experience true peace, beauty and space in the heart of England’s smallest city.
The Bishop’s Palace & Gardens in Wells has been home to the Bishops of Bath and Wells for over 800 years and this stunning medieval palace is open for all to enjoy.
Surrounded by a breath-taking moat (with resident swans) visitors can cross a flagstone drawbridge, walk under the portcullis and experience a true hidden gem in the heart of the City of Wells.
There are 14 acres of outstanding, landscaped RHS Partner gardens to explore, including the beautiful well pools from which the city takes its name.
Discover the medieval splendours of the Palace buildings, from the vaulted Undercroft to the elegant Long Gallery, and experience year-round family events, guided tours and a café with the best views in Wells!
For younger visitors there is a large play area “The Dragon’s Lair” hidden in the Arboretum.
From family and community activity days, historical re-enactment, exhibitions, large-scale festivals, theatre, concerts, talks, and workshops - we've got something for everybody whatever your age or interests.
