Wonderful

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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.

Very convenient for the lovely North Norfolk coast
Great little place, lovely host and central for exploring the North Norfolk coast. Clean and well equipped. Quiet location. All ammenities within easy walking distance ie pubs, supermarkets and bus access to the coast.
Ideal cottage for two adults. Great location to explore beautiful Wells and surrounding area. Easy access to shops, cafes and pubs/ restaurants. Pauline was a great host and we hope to visit again.
Superb location 100yds from the quay at WNS, parking fine in Sept once we sussed out access from road Pauline v pleaseant and everything v clean. Main room v large but a bit gloomy, with a skylight that meant light in bedroom in early morning, good bathroom and shower, kitchen fine but no icebox in fridge for G&Ts, tiny outside sun trap.
Ideal location, odd property but suited us and reasonable cost.
Really enjoyed staying in the apartment. It has everything a couple needs with comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, excellent wifi and a fantastic shower. The best part is the location being only a minutes walk to staithe street and the quay. Highly recommended as a base to enjoy Wells.
