SITUATION
Wells-next-the-Sea is a small town with a big personality. From the late 16th century up until the early 20th century, it was a major port and still attracts a wide variety of pleasure craft alongside the fishing fleet bringing in local crab, whelk and shrimp. The Quay is the focal point of the town dominated by the iconic granary building with its distinctive overhanging gantry.
The town itself, predominantly a Conservation Area, is made up of narrow streets and ‘yards’ leading up from the Quay with many buildings dating back to the early 17th century. There are good local amenities including primary and secondary schools, doctor and dentist, library, food stores, great pubs, restaurants and fish and chip shops as well as interesting independent boutiques and art galleries. And Wells Maltings has a community centre with a theatre, cinema and café-bar.
Wells beach offers miles of sand and has a beautiful array of coloured beach huts and, like neighbouring Holkham beach, is fringed by sand dunes and pinewoods . This beautiful part of the world offers many leisure pursuits including wonderful coastal walks, cycling, kite surfing, sailing, golf and birdwatching to name a few.
