“The Globe Inn struck me as a place that understands its strengths: a lively pub atmosphere balanced with genuinely comfortable rooms; the maritime decor nods to Wells-next-the-Sea's coastal identity, creating a sense of place. For me, it's the family-run feel that stands out, suggesting a personal touch often missing in larger establishments.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently highlight the spacious rooms, especially those in the courtyard, and the modern, well-equipped bathrooms. Many appreciate the thoughtful touches such as the Nespresso machine and selection of coffee, or the provisions offered in the Muddy Paws package. The breakfast is a highlight for many, with the variety and quality of the food receiving consistent praise, and while some guests have found certain rooms a little dated, the convenient location near the green and the available parking add to the overall positive experience.

Excellent Food and Service

upgraded room smooth check-in
I booked a night away. The experience started with a lovely phone call offering an upgraded room (a nice surprise). Check-in was smooth, and I was shown to the room, big and well-equipped. Dinner did not disappoint. It was Sunday, so I opted for the roast, which looked lovely and tasted good.
I found no shelving in the bathroom to put toiletries. I had to put things on the floor, inconvenient. The small table made it hard to fit my plate during breakfast.
