Property code: OC-1128

A quirky property in the heart of this bustling port town, and within 1.5 miles of Holkham Hall, Warham Salt Marshes and Wells Beach. Featuring light and spacious living areas, a large kitchen/diner and an attractive enclosed garden, it is perfect for small groups or families with older children keen to explore the Norfolk Coast AONB.

Located just off The Buttlands, a large tree-lined square leading towards the quayside, this one-storey property is formed from the old coach house and stables that were originally part of Monteagle House. Full of character and charm, the property is approached via a pretty courtyard garden, its rooms punctuated with original features including vaulted ceilings and exposed beams that help to create a warming, rustic ambience. The lounge/diner off the entrance hall is draped in natural light whenever the sun shines and is a beautiful place to unwind. The neighbouring kitchen/diner is a delight, with plenty of room for cooking and conversation. The tastefully appointed double and twin bedrooms are ready to care for those calling it a night, and the large family bathroom nearby doubles as a utility space. The attractive approach to the property is complemented by the enclosed rear garden, which comes complete with a summerhouse for quiet time and lawn and patio areas surrounded by flower beds.

Visitors have long flocked to Wells-next-the-Sea for many reasons, from its bustling quayside and salt marshes to the seemingly endless sandy beach that lies within 1.5 miles of the property. The Buttlands (50 metres) is a lovely place for a group picnic, the perfect way to prepare for a long walk around Holkham Hall’s stunning woods and parkland (1.5 miles).

Lovely quirky decor and great location, but could have been cleaner. Easy access for buses and great walks.

Lovely cottage and situation. No WiFi for 3 days,therefore unable to use the TV ,was eventually sorted. Vacuum cleaner needs replacing, hardly any suction at all. Fitted sheet on double bed was too small, came off. Nice garden, but the artificial grass needs replacing.

The cottage in general was nice but needed a good deep clean. The windows were really dirty especially the doors looking out the front. Dish drainer in kitchen was all rusty should be thrown away and most utensils were greasy

The Mews was warm and comfortable and I loved the decor, although I meant to count the elephants and forgot! I even managed a couple of afternoons sitting in the garden.

We loved our stay! The property has a really fun vibe. We enjoyed the summer house at the end of a sunny day with the old childrens annuals. The house had the most incredible collection of elephant art - pictures and artefacts. We kept coming across more. An enjoyable activity on a rainy day would be counting them all. Good facilities at the MewsRead more included an easy to use kitchen. Wells-next-the-sea is great fun. We walked on the coastal path several times. We enjoyed Holkham, Houghton Hall and Felbrigg NT. We had a lovely meal at the Crown next door and bought fish and Chips from Frenchs on the harbour. Would be happy to return. Hide
