    Comfortable light, bright property, warm and well equipped. Garage was excellent.
  • Raymond

    Excellent location and well equipped converted boat house. The ground floor garage in fact is not as small as it mentions- I could park my van, a Vauxhall Combo, inside though maneuvering in and out would require some skills as the street is...
  • Kate
    United Kingdom United Kingdom
    Perfect amenities for 2 people. Loved the central location. Close to some lovely pubs and restaurants. The bed was very comfortable.
  • Alan
    United Kingdom United Kingdom
    Set in a nice quiet central location, just a few minutes walk to the harbour, shops, plentiful pubs and eat places.
  • John
    United Kingdom United Kingdom
    Near the village centre but quiet. Small but airy, attractive and comfortable living room. Small but modern kitchen and bathroom.
  • Clive
    United Kingdom United Kingdom
    Excellent use of space in an open plan area. A bonus is somewhere to park a car (garage under the accommodation). Close to the centre of town.
  • Philip

    Great location, spotlessly clean, and just what you want for a couple.

Neighbourhood information

Wells-next-the-Sea is a hub for North Norfolk coastal activities. From the picturesque harbour, where gilling for crabs is a must, you can walk, drive or catch the beach bus to the spectacular beach with its famous array of colourful beach huts and pine forest. Stop at the Beach Cafe afterwards for a drink and snack. At low tide see if you can spot the famous Lifeboat Horse sculpture standing proud in the mud near quay. Amble along Staithe Street, the bustling high street, with a flurry of independent shops, lovely tearooms, great gastro pubs, independent restaurants and The Wells Maltings, North Norfolk’s Landmark Cultural Centre with exciting events all year round. Start your day with a delicious coffee from Bang or Will's of Wells. If you love local seafood then booking a table at Wells Crab House is must. Pizza-lovers will adore the bold flavours served at Flour. Reward yourself after an active day with some of the best fish and chips in the area at French's, followed by locally made dessert from East Coast Gelato icecream parlour. Wells features a pretty, leafy green peaceful square, The Buttlands, which is surrounded by fine Georgian buildings and a lovely pub; The Globe. Catch the Coasthopper and enjoy exploring picturesque neighbouring villages such as The Burnhams. Breathtaking Holkham Hall and expansive Holkham beach can be found just a short journey down road. Hire a bike from the quayside and spend the day exploring the estate and local coastal paths. This stretch of beautiful coastline is a bucket-list destination for birders and walkers all year round. For something very different try Norfolk Padel near Fakenham, where you can hire state-of-the-art courts for this fast-growing racquet sport.
