Around The Area
The name of Dulcote has existed for at least 1,000 years and many of the properties are named after its landmark fountain which is nearly 150 years old. The fountain stands on a triangle of land at the crossroads where formerly a toll house stood. On foot, Wells is approximately a twenty minute walk or three minute drive from Dulcote.
Wells is the smallest Cathedral city in England and offers all the usual amenities that you would expect including banks, doctors’ surgeries, dentists and a selection of primary schools and the excellent Blue School and Wells Cathedral school. The High Street is vibrant with a small selection of chain stores such as Waterstones, plus a variety of independent shops, restaurants and pubs. The Laundry offers beautiful women's wear and a wander round the corner brings you to Queen Street Deli with its amazing range of cheeses, breads and chocolates. There is a twice weekly market and a choice of supermarkets including Waitrose. At the very heart of the city is the stunning medieval Cathedral, Bishop’s Palace with its superb garden and Vicars’ Close (reputed to be the oldest surviving residential street in Europe). Wells is fast becoming the South West's go-to place for festivals with the annual food, literary, comedy and theatre events. The cafe culture within the Market Place offers a wonderful opportunity to sit and watch the world go by. Tables and chairs adorn the cobbled square with popular destinations such as the Bishop's Eye wine bar/restaurant and Number 21 Cafe offering all day dining. With both the Cathedral School and the Cathedral itself there are endless opportunities for musical concerts, plus there are regular shows in the Little Theatre and a Cinema. Both Bath (21 miles) and Bristol (22 miles) are within commuting distance and there is a main line railway station with links to London in Castle Cary 13 miles away. Street and Glastonbury are 20 minutes away and Bristol airport is an easy 30-minute drive.
Schools
There are excellent state and independent schools in the area including highly regarded primary schools in Wells, Wells Cathedral Prep and senior school, Millfield Prep and senior schools, the popular Wells Blue Secondary School, Downside School and All Hallows Preparatory School.
