Between Holkham Beach and the Blakeney Point Bird Sanctuary lies the quaint harbour town of Wells-next-the-Sea. Set back just a ten-minute walk from the town centre is this stylish yet homely abode, perfect for a small family or close-knit group of friends looking for some peace and quiet on the North Norfolk coast. Inside, a modern kitchen with an AGA and wine fridge calls for hearty meals accompanied by chilled glasses of your favourite tipple. With pudding demolished and plates cleared, set up a board game in the dining room for an evening of togetherness and screen-free fun. Then retire to the living room to curl up on the armchair with a mug of hot chocolate. Upstairs, comfy bedrooms provide peeks of the water through large windows – it’s a gorgeous sight when you throw open the curtains in the morning. On sunny days, nip down to the quay for crabbing and boat trips to see the seals. Taverns serving locally sourced, seasonal fare, cluster around the picturesque Buttlands green – an ideal place to end up after frolicking on Wells’ beach, a forty-minute walk or seven-minute car ride away.
