Charming and coastal, Wells-next-the-Sea makes a perfect day out. Stroll the sweeping sandy beach, framed by colourful beach huts and backed by fragrant pinewoods, then wander the bustling quayside where fishing boats bob and stalls serve up fresh seafood. Explore the narrow lanes of the town with their indie shops, art galleries, and cosy cafés, or follow the harbour path for wide-sky views across the salt marshes. Pause in the leafy green by St Nicholas Church, browse for seaside treats, or take the little narrow-gauge railway out towards the shore. With sand, sea air, pretty streets, and a relaxed holiday feel, Wells is a Norfolk gem that always delights before the comfortable coach ride home.
