The Crown at Wells

The exterior of this 15th-century coaching inn located in the Market Place of England's smallest city will be familiar to movie buffs as it featured in the hit film Hot Fuzz. A stone's throw from the city's magnificent cathedral and moated Bishop's Palace, the pub is full of character with three original fireplaces, and is comfortably furnished. Bar menu choices include home-made fish pie; local River Axe mussels in white wine, tomato and chilli sauce and breaded baked Somerset brie with cranberry sauce. There are 15 charming bedrooms available.
