- "Right in the middle of town by the harbour, friendly and welcoming. My wife being a light sleeper was not disturbed once in either of the two nights stay. We would book again. ALBaker. " - "This is a beautiful B&B right near the town centre with a great system for self check in. Whilst it doesn't have parking it is right across the road from the long stay car park which is only £8.50 for 24 hours. Lovely communal seating and breakfast areas. Continental breakfast was great with fresh fruit, toast, croissants, cereal, meat and cheese. Our room was small but nice with comfy bed and plenty of drawer/hanging space. The owner is lovely and makes sure you have everything you need. The gelato shop RIGHT next door is amazing but dangerous 😀 Would highly recommend!"

- "Very well presented house with seaside theamed pictures etc which really suit the proximity to the sea and marshlands. Ideal for families and dogs. Highly recommended." - "Perfect location, 5 mins to East Quay via the lane at the back of the property, 5 mins to coastal path. 15 mins from the Quay if you meander through the high street and stop for ice cream, my favourite route!. House was clean and tidy and had everything you could possibly need. House was very light and airy with views from the back across to the coastal path. Even a couple of deers frequented the field to the side. Hosts were lovely and very helpful. They took time to pop over to sort a tiny issue with the TV which was sorted in seconds. The garden was fantastic for our dog, fully enclosed. Plenty of pubs are dog friendly The Carpenters Arms, Wighton, about 3 miles by car was great."

UPDATE - Freeholders has just won a commendation in the American Institute of Architects awards for 2021:
AIA UK 2021 Virtual Design Awards Gala
…Next is special commendation in the Professional Practice Small Projects category.
Jane Duncan - Judge:
“I am given the great and wonderful task of giving a special commendation in the professional practice small projects category and that commendation goes to Freeholders by Mole Architects. This is a low-key and fantastically contextual design for a house which is so beautifully detailed and so quiet you could actually walk by it without noticing it was there, but it shows masterful craftsmanship, a wonderful and exquisitely flowing design for the plan and the section on a really awkward site. The whole jury was knocked out in particular by the living space and that absolutely brilliantly framed view - to die for and the ceiling height which really just set it off - we all just wanted to live there! Congratulations!”
Ian Bramwell - Mole Architects:
“Well thank you so much it's a real honour to accept this award from the Institute for
Freeholders. Freeholders was a wonderful project to be involved in and is located in such an exceptional site on the waterfront in Wells-Next-The-Sea, in the middle of a conservation area. Of course projects like this just don't happen without exceptional clients and Jon and Jane had vision, aspiration and ambition to produce something out of the ordinary and they really pushed us to design and deliver a building that exceeded their expectations - so thank you Jon and Jane.
- "A beautiful property in a fantastic location with amazing views. Really hope to stay there again" - "Great views of the amazing salt marsh & tidal creek. And, swim at high tide, paddle at low tide." - "What a beautiful place to stay in such a great location.Freeholders was perfect and what a view." - "The accommodation was superb.

A beautiful, spacious three storey character property enjoying sea and harbour views from the top floor. So close to the heart of Wells-next-the-Sea harbour and amenities, yet still a haven of peace and tranquillity with a sheltered south-facing patio garden, which is a real sun-trap. The location really is exceptional! A mere minute walk from the quay, Coxswain's House is far enough away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough so that everything is at hand.
Spread over three floors, Coxswain's House used to be the home of the town's Lifeboat helmsman and skipper, hence the name! The property has been beautifully renovated and is bursting with character, space and lots of charm. Stylishly decorated and comfortably furnished throughout, with the odd tasteful nod here and there to its seaside location, the owners have paid great attention to every small detail to ensure guests have the best and most comfortable of holidays.
Children (and adults) will have great time playing pool in the games room. There is a lovely relaxed kitchen/breakfast room flooded with natural light, featuring a snug nestled at the top end. With a wood burning stove, comfy sofa, chairs and a television, you could spend the whole day and evening in making it the perfect venue for a long, chatty lunch or special dinner. Outside, there is a very sunny private and spacious enclosed courtyard garden; an ideal spot for a barbecue or pre-dinner drinks. Coxswains House is definitely the perfect holiday house for families, couples and friends to enjoy the very best of times in this popular seaside town.
The house is also available as a sleeps four option, Coxswain's House (4), out of the main season and school holidays.

Care needed when staying in loft room, couple of bumped heads and a trip hazard of a recess in floor but that did not spoil a fantastic weekend in a fantastic house. Will definitely be recommending"

I would stay here again and recommend this to my friends and family." - "We really enjoyed staying at Seashells as a family of 8 plus dog over the new year. There are only a couple of points to highlight: - Outside bins had not been emptied, I guess due to Christmas but the recycling was completely full when we arrived and meant we had a lot of rubbish in the walkway near the utility room during our stay - TV's in the lounge is quite old, could do with updating to include smart TV function & HD - Lounge needs additional chair Really enjoyed The Global Pub a few minutes from the house and long walks to the beaches at Wells & Hockham."

Hideaway House is a wonderful period Grade II listed semi-detached property, hidden away in the heart of Wells-next-the-Sea on a quiet side road. It's just a stone's throw away from the delights of Wells quay and Staithe Street with its numerous shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants. This delightful house is now a very well-equipped and maintained holiday home and is a great choice for families or a group of friends searching for a quality property in a fabulous location with parking.
As the name suggests, Hideaway House is very much tucked away and is contemporary, yet comfortable with a seaside feel which you will all adore, whatever time of year you choose to visit. The spacious and colourful kitchen is a haven for food lovers, with a Smeg range cooker to prepare wonderful meals using the array of local produce available in the town itself. However, if you don't fancy eating in, then you are well placed to dine out, as you are so close to all the best restaurants, pubs and cafes. With the bakers only a short stroll away you can pick up warm croissants and brew some fresh coffee on your return using the fabulous coffee maker provided, before everyone awakes.
After a busy day at the beach or exploring the coast, relax in the light and airy sitting room making use of the bi-fold doors which open up onto the pretty walled south-facing courtyard garden. The courtyard basks in the sun in the afternoon and early evening, so there is no excuse not to shut your eyes and enjoy a siesta or a sundowner! When the nights draw in, head inside and cosy up in front of the wood burning stove and enjoy good conversation. Three large king-size bedrooms (one with an en-suite, plus a second bathroom) and a bunk room with a full-size 3ft bunk bed to sleep two children or adults ensure there's ample space and privacy for everyone to retire comfortably on an evening too.
Wells-next-the-Sea boasts one of the best beaches in North Norfolk so enjoy lazy summer days sunbathing amongst the dunes and beach huts which are flanked by a stunning pinewood forest, or go for energetic embracing winter walks. If you are seeking some culture, then head to Holkham where you will adore the Hall, parklands and soft sands. If you don't want to go far but want some fun, hire a kayak or paddle board from the quay, or try a spot of gillying or crabbing (using whelks or bacon leftovers from breakfast as bait).
Cyclists will appreciate the covered storage area for bikes in the garden making it easy to explore the quiet lanes that make the area just outside Wells so special. If you prefer to be on foot, then walk the North Norfolk coastal path to Stiffkey or Holkham and you will be rewarded with stunning views and an abundance of bird and wildlife.
This property is also available to book for four people, with some rooms closed - Hideaway House (4).

- "Lovely property in a perfect location close to the water front. We would definitely stay there again." - "This was a return visit after first staying in Hideaway House some 8 or 9 years ago. In that time the house has been maintained in excellent condition and the bathrooms have even been improved. Good to have a barbecue to hand which was put to use in the late sunshine. Facilities at Hideaway House are second to none, only the coffee maker failed to work but then again instant coffee is fine, (I think)! Beds were a generous size as were the wardrobes, fittings, pictures etc were all tasteful and the welcome pack was much appreciated. Staying at Hideaway House is something to really look forward to so it looks like a return visit for us next year."

A superbly appointed, very special 17th Century 4 bedroom holiday home in the popular North Norfolk seaside town of Wells next Sea, winner of the UKs best beach 2016 in the Sunday times. The house is comfortable and stylish accommodation for ten+ and perfectly positioned for the quayside, shopping on Staithe street and gourmet meals on the historic Butlands. It is furnished and decorated throughout in a fresh, contemporary style, with a light and airy feel to all the rooms. Dogs very welcome.
We have lovingly renovated Bakers House to create a fabulous family home. The kitchen/dining/family room is perfect for socialising with friends and family - the glazed canopy roof above the dining room is a striking feature that floods the inner areas with light. A spacious open plan kitchen area with adjoining living room allows friends and family to spend quality time together while preparing meals. Children can play on the rocking horse with you while you cook ! The 4 bedrooms and 4 WC/shower rooms comfortably accommodate 10 guests. The outside seating area and garden is pretty and spacious and has parking for 3 cars. The house is perfectly positioned within the heart of the bustling coastal town of Wells-Next-the-Sea next to the picturesque quay, and numerous pubs, cafes, restaurants and shops. From the spacious bedrooms you can glimpse the sea beyond Holkham and the boats floating in the harbour where the children also fish for crabs. The house was originally built as 2 separate houses for 2 families and it is rumoured as many as 36 people used to live there. A fisherman’s grave stone in the Wells cemetery says he lived in the house in 1695. In the loft some of the old ships beams still have the rope tied round them that was used for the ships rigging 400 years ago. We have named it Bakers House because as recently as 1970 it was a Bakery selling their wares through the kitchen window. We only finished renovating the house in February and are offering introductory pricing for the remainder of the year.
Your host is on hand throughout your stay to answer any questions and advise on the great places to visit and eat out.
Wells-next-the-Sea is one of the most attractive towns on the North Norfolk Coast. The beautiful sandy beach, with its pine trees, sand dunes and colourful beach huts, stretches for miles towards Holkham and was famously featured in the film Shakespeare in Love. Just off the Quay you can catch the miniature steam train that takes you the mile or so down to the beach.
Popular with holiday makers and birdwatches alike, you can spot oyster catchers and ringed plovers, who nest on the beach, along with some common and little terns. The town has a maze of narrow streets, old alleys and yards, filled with shops, pubs and cafes and there are many listed and impressive Georgian and Victorian buildings. The area around Wells provides opportunities for sightseeing, water sports, bird watching, country walks and plenty of family fun. This Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty has lots to offer. Wells is an unspoiled seaside destination, waiting to be discovered and is perfect for a family seaside holiday, couples get away, walking, bird watching or just groups of friends relaxing.
There is parking for 3 cars. The local coast hopper bus stop, is right outside !

The cottage is cosy in size buy spacious enough to not feel cranped. The beds are of a very high comfort which is important to us as a good night's sleep equates to a good break away. The kitchen is probably the best equipped that I have ever encountered so a big tick in the box there. The welcome treats were a welcome addition as well. As Arnold schwarzeneger would say I'll be back"
