So close to the heart of Wells-next-the-Sea harbour and amenities, yet still a haven of peace and tranquillity with a sheltered south-facing patio garden, which is a real sun-trap. The location really is exceptional! A mere minute walk from the quay, Coxswain's House is far enough away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough so that everything is at hand. Spread over three floors, Coxswain's House used to be the home of the town's Lifeboat helmsman and skipper, hence the name! The property has been beautifully renovated and is bursting with character, space and lots of charm. Stylishly decorated and comfortably furnished throughout, with the odd tasteful nod here and there to its seaside location, the owners have paid great attention to every small detail to ensure guests have the best and most comfortable of holidays. Children (and adults) will have great time playing pool in the games room. There is a lovely relaxed kitchen/breakfast room flooded with natural light, featuring a snug nestled at the top end. With a wood burning stove, comfy sofa, chairs and a television, you could spend the whole day and evening in making it the perfect venue for a long, chatty lunch or special dinner. Outside, there is a very sunny private and spacious enclosed courtyard garden; an ideal spot for a barbecue or pre-dinner drinks. Coxswains House is definitely the perfect holiday house for families, couples and friends to enjoy the very best of times in this popular seaside town. The house is also available as a sleeps eight option, listed as Coxswain's House. Additional Information: Sorry, no pets. Travel cot and high chair available on request. Please bring your own linen for the travel cot. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Internet access ### Parking and transportation - Limited onsite parking (max 2 spaces) ### Kitchen -

Dec 17, 2021 #### Just the job in Wells-next-the-sea ! Most enjoyable stay at Coxswain's House. Good location just a stone’s throw from the bay and within easy walking distance to a very eclectic shopping street. Property was clean, tidy and well presented with a very welcome starter pack to get us going on our arrival day. Log fires in both the lounge and the dining room added an extra cosy touch. Excellent beds and a good blast from the shower(s) ticked a very important box for us. All in all a great stay and highly recommended- one tip, take a sharp knife with you ! ##### David T. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good Nov 2, 2021 #### Lovely property Very well appointed accommodation a few minutes away from the heart of Wells. We booked last minute and Norfolk Hidaways did a great job of arranging our stay. The property had everything, including a pool table and Xbox! Parking through 3 sets of gates could be a challenge to some but it was good to have dedicated parking as it's not easy to get a space in Wells. Would stay again. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Oct 5, 2021 #### Beautiful place to stay in Wells We loved Coxswains house. Perfect location close to harbour. House was spotless and had everything we needed and more. We hope to return.
