A lovely holiday apartment with a stunning view of Wells harbour. This was I think my 5th stay at this apartment and I highly recommend it. The people of Wells are also very friendly.

Home from home comfort with great elevated views across the harbour and salt marsh to the East Hills. Books, DVDs and games aplenty if a day in is required but ideally located for exploring Wells and the stunning North Norfolk coast.

A view you want to return to. We loved watching the fishing boats and the movement of the tide on the marsh, even a seal in the harbour. We could spend a week just looking out of the window . The flat was exceptionally clean and we felt at home within a very short time. Good parking and only a minute from the high street but no worries about noisRead moree. Lots to see and do in the area including enjoying some excellent cream teas! Hide

Loved the view! The flat is beautifully decorated and has all the equipment needed for a week's stay. It is also very quiet - I was beginning to wonder if anyone else actually lived in the block. I have a small car so no problem in getting in and out of the garage. Near to the seafood stall on the front so, all in all, a lovely place to stay.

We are regular visitors to Wells and have always wanted to stay in this iconic building. Flat 8 did not disappoint and we had a wonderful time is this modern well equipped and supplied flat. There is plenty of parking, however, our Tesla was marginally too large to fit in the garage (as mentioned in the booking details). The flat now has good wiRead more-fi, fitted in 2024. Highly recommended. Hide
