WELLS - NEXT - THE - SEA, NORTH NORFOLK

Wells-next-the-Sea offers sweeping sandy beaches fringed with colourful beach huts and shady pine woods. The harbour has a small working fishing fleet, families can enjoy boat trips and crabbing (gillying) from the quayside.

This area of Norfolk is wonderful for birdwatching, take a dawn or sunset stroll along the coastal footpath with views over the salt marshes.

There is an excellent visitor information centre at the Wells Maltings with details of places of interests and family activities in the surrounding area, events at Holkham Hall and Pensthorpe Natural Park. Cycle hire, including electric cycles, is available.

Wells has a varied selection of cafes, pubs and restaurants, with lots of picnic goodies at the bakers and deli’s. Temptations include freshly caught seafood, fish and chips, locally made ice-cream and Whin Hill Cider from the traditional ciderworks.

Walk from Wells along the beach or through the Pine Woods to Holkham Bay, there are refreshments and facilities at Wells and Holkham beach car parks, and at Holkham Hall. This is a lovely walk, if you want to shorten it catch the Coast Hopper bus for your return trip.



The Cottage

According to a local historian the cottage is one of the oldest properties in Wells, pre-dating 1586. The building used to be an Inn called 'The Grapes'. It is centrally located just a few steps from the bakers for your morning croissant or bacon butty! The quayside is a short walk away.

The cottage is full of character with a cosy wood-burner, timber beams, window seats, handmade kitchen and other handmade furniture. To the rear there is a small paved area for sitting outside.

We often park for free on the street in Bolts Close a short walk away.
