The Blue Bowl was situated on the A39. In operation from at least 1841 when John Beck was the innkeeper, it changed its name to the Camelot Inn in the late 1970s and then again to the Three Wells in 2015. Closed in May 2017. At the end of 2021 planning applications were made to convert to shop/cafe and to place five holiday lodges on the adjoining land.

John Simmonds 1950s We used to holiday in the Farm just round the corner run by Mr. and Mrs Fear. I was about 7 at the time and used to help Mr Fear bring the cows in for milking at about 6 a.m. I was not really allowed in the Bowl, but used to sit outside and have a weak cider/lemonade drink along an awful big "water biscuit". I loved Mr and Mrs Fear dearly. There was a huge bowl in the bedroom and a big jug of water in the bowl for me to wash.
