Text from the free encyclopedia WIKIPEDIA may appear below to give a little background information:
*************
Wookey Hole is a village close to Wells in Somerset, England. It is within the parish of St Cuthbert Out.
One possible origin for the name Wookey is from the Old English wocig (an animal trap).[1], although it is also a possible alteration from a Celtic word ogo (cave) referring to Wookey Hole Caves.[2]
The village of Wookey Hole is dominated by the Wookey Hole Caves tourist site which has show caves, and a controversial Crazy Golf course which was built on the site of the village Bowls green.[3]
The village has shops, a pub, restaurants, hotels and a campsite.
Glencot House is a Grade II listed country house dating from 1887, by a Mr George and Harold Peto, for W. S. Hodgkinson. A report of the building appeared in The Building News, 13 May 1887; the architect's drawing was exhibited at the Royal Academy, and is now at RIBA.[4]
Since 2007 Glencot House has been a country house hotel owned by Martin and Ioana Miller.
The 18th-century Bubwith farmhouse is also a Grade II listed building,[5] as is the post office in the high street.[6]
The Monarch's Way and Mendip Way long-distance footpaths both pass through the village. Ebbor Gorge National Nature Reserve is just outside the village.
