The Piggery was lovely, clean, comfortable & well equipped. The bed was really comfy. We enjoyed the sunny terrace and comfy garden sofa as well as use of the pool and spa. The location is great for exploring Wells and The Levels.

Lovely little cottage. Sam was brilliant in sharing all the information well ahead of time and staying in regular contact with any queries. As the name suggests it is the old Piggery so as expected it's a little tucked away cottage within the...

Relax in the tranquility of Wellesley Park estate, set in glorious Somerset countryside just outside the beautiful, historic City of Wells. The Piggery is located in a small gated community, featuring a superb indoor Spa complex with swimming pool, steam room, sauna, gym and outdoor tennis court - a very rare find in this area. An idyllic staycation spot, surrounded by 18 acres of private meadows with panoramic views, offering a safe and peaceful space for a family holiday or romantic bolthole. The Piggery features a stunning vaulted-beam living space which incorporates a fully equipped designer kitchen with Neff appliances and granite worktops. Stylish furniture, 55in Smart TV, extending dining table set and French doors to the garden area. The property is all on one level with easy access to both bedrooms and family bathroom from the living area. Suitable for 4 + 1 extra child. Both bedrooms have 50in Smart TVs and hotel-grade Super King beds with pocket-sprung mattresses. Both beds can convert to make twin single beds and a chair-bed is available in the larger bedroom suitable for an extra child.

You will be able to book (online) private 1 hour sessions for members of your group in both the indoor swimming pool / steam room / sauna area and the air-conditioned gym.
I was born and now live near to the beautiful City of Wells in Somerset with my husband Jason and two sons. Our holiday home, The Piggery, is just over a mile to the South of Wells and is very near to our own actual home. We fell in love The Piggery, largely due to the very special peaceful setting and the truly wonderful Spa facilities. An indoor pool with steam room and sauna is as rare as hen's teeth in this area! Although it only takes 5 minutes to get from our house to The Piggery, we instantly feel 'on holiday' there. We often stay ourselves and it has been fantastic for our family and friends to enjoy as well. There is a lovely friendly community at Wellesley Park with a mix of full-time residents and second home owners plus a resident caretaker couple. We are just a few miles from the Glastonbury Festival site and music has been a big part of my life. I started going to Glastonbury c.1981 and teach music locally to a range of budding headliners.
Fantastic central location for exploring the Mendip area and beyond. Just 4 miles from Glastonbury Festival with direct access to the public footpath network for walks / biking to Wells, nearby villages, the Mendip Hills and Somerset Levels. Golf, horse riding and a range of outdoor sports from climbing to kayaking can be found nearby. Mendip Activity Centre (Sandford) features a dry ski slope plus a toboggan run and offers a huge range of other activities. Beautiful Wells has not only its medieval Cathedral, moated Bishop's Palace and the oldest residential street in Europe, but also a twice weekly Farmer's markets, many festivals celebrating music, food, arts, as well as great shopping and a fine selection of independent cafes and restaurants. 5 miles to Glastonbury Tor, Abbey and Festival 4 miles to Wookey Hole Caves 8 miles to Cheddar Gorge and town 8 miles to Clarks Shopping Village or 5 miles to Kilver Court Just under an hour’s drive to the North Somerset coast, Longleat, Stourhead or the World Heritage Sites of Stonehenge, Bath and Jurassic Coast. Popular for exeat breaks and families visiting: Wells Cathedral School, Millfield, Downside, All Hallows.
