Algerine Cottage is lauded for it's perfect location. A delightful, spacious, dog-friendly cottage situated within 100 yards of the quay in the stunning harbour of Wells-next-the-Sea, and close to local shops and amenities.
Tucked away up a narrow lane just off the harbour of this lively harbour town, Algerine is perfect place for soggy children and dogs to potter home to after a paddle. Tiled floors downstairs and a ground floor bathroom make this a popular choice for dog owners and active families who like to get down and dirty exploring the beaches and coastal path. The inclusion of a ground floor bedroom combined with the cottage's proximity to the town amenities means Algerine ticks the boxes for families of mixed ages and abilities, or those who wish to leave the car behind. With a well-equipped kitchen, coastal touches, one single bedroom, one king-size and two double bedrooms with plenty of storage, plus an additional shower room upstairs, Algerine Cottage is very practical whilst retaining the charm of an old fisherman's cottage. The cottage has gas central heating and two gas effect wood burning stoves in the sitting room and dining area, making it a great year round retreat for people looking for peace and quiet with everything on the doorstep, from pubs and shops, to miles and miles of scenic walks.
The lane is very narrow, meaning there is no designated parking for Algerine Cottage, the advantage being very little passing traffic. You're more likely to see alpacas wander past as they are taken on their walks round the back lanes and lokes of Wells. You can find free street parking nearby.
Additional Information: Three well behaved dogs are welcome (small additional charge). Travel cot and high chair available on request. Please bring your own mattress and linen for the travel cot.
