Escape for a few hours to the peace of Wells Cathedral. Described as “the most poetic of the English Cathedrals” visitors are welcome every day of the year.
Join a free scheduled daily tour with a highly trained cathedral guide. Hugely popular, they are available every day (except Sundays) and highlights could include the magnificent West Front, stunning scissor arches and medieval Vicars’ Close.
The cathedral also runs free ‘Window Walks’ and Embroideries tours on most Saturday and Wednesday mornings (April-October) from 11.15am. No booking required.
Family trails and holiday workshops are also available, including two family workshops running over the school Easter holidays.
Entry to the cathedral is by donation and visitors are welcome to join daily services or to simply take time out and enjoy refreshments in the popular café. A second cathedral shop is also now open in Wells Market Place.
