About this property
Harbour Place is a detached bungalow situated in the port town of Wells-Next-The-Sea, which is on the North Norfolk coast of England. This stylish open-plan property is great for a coastal getaway and sleeps up to four people, making it a charming setting for visiting the coast and country. Tucked up at the end of the close, a large private driveway, fitting up to four cars, greets you before entering through the front door to the bright hallway which leads you directly to the open-plan living area. The living area has two large sofas that you can look forward to cosying up in, sat around a wall-mounted TV and an electric fire. Next to that is a useful dining room table, and a kitchen with fully-equipped amenities, making it able to decide who the designated chef will be, as well as a handy washing machine. Back into the hallway, there is a door leading to the master bedroom which has a king-size bed, a wardrobe and leads to an en-suite with a shower, basin, WC, heated towel rack, mirror and ample storage space. The second room has a double bed, attractive décor and a wardrobe to unpack any of your belongings, served by a family bathroom. The patio doors lead you outside to an enclosed garden, with high fencing, a lawn and four chairs and a table sitting on the patio, ready for any barbeques or evenings under the stars. You can take a short stroll into town, where you will find plenty of shops to stock up on any necessities or essentials, and a choice of pubs or restaurants to enjoy an evening out. You are also a short drive from a game of a pitch and putt golf, and a sandy beach, with parking. If you can tear yourself away from the bungalow and the surrounding town, further afield you will find the historic Holkham Hall, the magical Norfolk coastal path and Norfolk Broads is home to petting zoos, boutiques, tree top adventures, watersports and lots more. For a busy or equally relaxing trip to the Norfolk coast, choose Harbour Place.

Wells is a lovely place, but we found we were unable to try the restaurants as all were pre-booked (we were there during half term week) - and even the fish&chip restaurant (Plattens) closed at 7pm. This was our first time to Norfolk, and we really loved it - there is a lot to see and do. We will be back! The cottage is very well equipped - but note that the 2nd bedroom has a double bed rather than twins, which might be a challenge for families. The shower head in the en-suite needs to be descaled, but everything else worked perfectly! It was very peaceful, and lovely to hear the geese nearby instead of traffic!

Great location as well. Only one small issue with the shower in the en-suite, the pressure was very low and it ran too hot because the shower head needs descaling. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay.

We had a very wet week but Harbour Place was a joy to stay in and if we ventured out, a delight to return to. Thank you.
