BRIDGE HOUSE, MOFFATS DRIVE, SOUTH HORRINGTON, WELLS, BA5 3LA

About the area
Wells is the smallest city in England (population about 11,000) lying in beautiful countryside between the Somerset Levels and the Mendip Hills - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The major towns of the area being Bristol, Bath, Taunton and Yeovil are all within commuting distance. Castle Cary is the nearest train station with fast links to London. Wells has local markets twice a week and many medieval buildings including the Cathedral and moated Bishop's Palace. There is a busy local shopping centre, a broad range of societies and activities and excellent state and independent schools in the area including a number primary schools, Wells Blue School, Wells Cathedral School and Millfield.

Accommodation
This Grade II Listed Victorian building was designed by Sir Gilbert Scott, the architect who designed the London Foreign Office, Albert Memorial and St Pancras Station. Originally a hospital it was re-developed about twenty years ago. It stands in a commanding position with its own mature grounds and cricket ground just north of Wells golf course and in easy reach of the centre of Wells. The development of this building and surrounding grounds comprises South Horrington - a popular residential area on the Bath Road side of Wells. It provides a range of houses and apartments of considerable interest and character which benefit from the large communal gardens, parking, superb views, and a peaceful environment well away from any busy roads.
