An exceptional, two-bedroom holiday home, tucked away in a quiet corner of Wells-next-the-Sea, this single-storey retreat offers living space with a wealth of character, as well as a lovely garden for outdoor relaxation. Sleeping four guests, the former coach house and stables is about 200 metres from the centre of the town, with its colourful shopping streets, pubs and cafes, and just under 1.5 miles from the wide, sandy beach. Venture 4 miles out of Wells to Stiffkey to walk out across the spectacular marshes towards the sea or drive 2.5 miles to Holkham to stroll through the nature reserve, visit famous Holkham Hall and head out to the impressive beach there, where you can also swim, picnic and fly kites.

Wander through the delightful cottage garden and let yourselves into an entrance hall, where you can leave your sandals and beach bags. Take three steps down to find a cloakroom with toilet and basin, then wander on through to the lounge/diner. Discover this stunning room has a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams; there is also a display platform here, which is for ornamental purposes only and should not be accessed by guests, plus a TV, DVD player and CD player for your enjoyment. Amble through to the kitchen to find everything you need to help you whip up homecooked meals with the provisions you bought locally. The family bathroom with a washing machine in the cupboard, a double bedroom and twin bedroom are also close by ready for when you feel like turning in for the night.

Luxuriate in the fabulous outside space at this unusual holiday retreat. Serve lunch and dinner out at the table in the sunshine and then retreat from the sun in the summer house.

The Mews was warm and comfortable and I loved the decor, although I meant to count the elephants and forgot! I even managed a couple of afternoons sitting in the garden.

We loved our stay! The property has a really fun vibe. We enjoyed the summer house at the end of a sunny day with the old childrens annuals. The house had the most incredible collection of elephant art - pictures and artefacts. We kept coming across more. An enjoyable activity on a rainy day would be counting them all. Good facilities at the MewsRead more included an easy to use kitchen. Wells-next-the-sea is great fun. We walked on the coastal path several times. We enjoyed Holkham, Houghton Hall and Felbrigg NT. We had a lovely meal at the Crown next door and bought fish and Chips from Frenchs on the harbour. Would be happy to return. Hide

The Mews has a lot going for it not least its location. Purely my own opinion, the bed is too soft, there is no WiFi. The location is great but in general (whilst clean) the property is tired. Sent in a constructive way.

I would have rated this holiday higher, but on return I found I had left my cap at the accommodation. Phoned this morning to ask if it could be returned to me. I stated that I was obviously prepared to pay postage. I was told yes that it could be returned to me but there would be a charge of 20. REALLY.

Very convenient location, lovely spacious living room and garden. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend. There isnt off street parking but dont let that put you off as cars come and go around the green all the time.
