Well Well Well!

The layout and location of the property was interesting and it grew on us. But the property was in excellent condition and hostess very welcoming. It was in an ideal location for very easy walking around and exploring Wells next the Sea. We found Wells next to Sea a very vibrant resort and really enjoyed our short break away from home. Good to feel sea air on our faces and weather was excellent.

Great location

The accommodation is really conveniently located in Wells. Everything was spotless and has all the things you need for a self-catering break. We found the bed quite hard, but this is a matter of personal preference. I would also have much preferred synthetic pillows rather than feather ones; they didn't offer much support and are not great if you have allergies.

NEW YEARS EVE!

We had a great experience staying in this property. Ideally located just off Staithe Street. Its all on one level. Really clean. TV with Netflix which was nice. Ideal for a break for 2 people. We had 2 adults and asked for a Z bed for our 6 year old and this was not a problem. Pauline was fantastic and came and knocked on the door on the day of departure to ensure we had a good stay and told us not to rush as she didn't have anyone checking in that day. I would stay here again.

Location outstanding

Would say we found it quite easily and location amazing. Two mins walk to sea and to shops. Bed was hard, really painful for my back and not comfortable. I’m not that fussy with mattresses generally so wasn’t that worried about other reviews saying it was hard, but in hindsight understood. Beds had to be stripped and put in washing machine and few other rules, which were under lined in bold on information. Host (who lives next door) did say that rules were covid cautionary as she’d had it three times so guess understandable. Very spacious and kitchen well equipped. We had a lovely time on the beach during our stay.

Very clean property with mix of ecletric furniture, not to our taste. I was a little disappointed. Property well out of the way in centre of town. Tiny garden but you do get a little late sunshine. Lovely owner, v friendly.

Suitable for a short stay Bolt hole tucked away

Great location just of Main Street close to quay and water front. The holiday let is an annex to owners main property and is tucked away down a narrow passageway. Feels very tucked in. Parking will be an issue in main season. Layout of property is unusual and has an ecelectic mix of furniture from different eras. I would say if you were eating in and enjoyed entertaining this isn’t the property for you. However we had no intentions of this but given we couldn’t book a table to eat one night a Chinese takeaway was our only option. ( excellent by the way). Suitable property for a short stay only. All equipment supplied but lay out , mix of furniture doesn’t reflect the affluence of this area

Great location for a short break

The property was ideally situated close to the harbour and all amenities, and proved an excellent base for a 4 night stay. It was very clean and comfortable and our host, Pauline was next door if we needed anything (we didn’t). We used the Coasthopper bus to Brancaster Staithe and walked back (almost 12 miles) - have done the other direction to Blakeney and Cley before but weather was uncertain so took the car. Lots of great places to eat in Wells and the surrounding area - excellent meal at the Bowling Green and sublime fish meal at the Wells Crabhouse (service very good at both). There is no parking at the property though we managed to find spaces fairly close. Two minor inconveniences which other reviews have mentioned - no freezer compartment in fridge so no ice for drinks. Also the bedroom area is off the living room and so very light from skylight. Wouldn’t put us off returning.

Quiet & Cosy off Staithe Street

Location is perfect. Close to Staithe St and the harbour but not close enough to be kept awake by the noise. We were able to park in the lane by the flat (but it was Easter). Apartment is clean, as-new condition, well-equipped with good heating, wifi and TV. Pauline lives next door and is very helpful. The mattress is firm, which is preferred by most, I believe. Would be very happy to rent again.

Great place

Apart from finding the place a bit tricky we had a great stay in this well equipped home. Pauline was attentive. The house was very clean and had all we needed. A very short walk from sea front, fish and chips and could park outside. I think we would go back

Cosy clean and comfortable

Great location near harbour shops pubs and restaurants. Stayed for 4 nights perfect to visit sights in North Norfolk. Pauline was very help when we had trouble signing into Wifi. Kitchen very well equipped The only reason not for 5 stars was the lack of a ‘separate’ bed room which isn’t clear from the description.
