Guest Reviews
Better than Expected - It was brilliantly suited to 6 adults, 2 young children and a dog! We liked the location and the views. A gorgeous property, we hope to come back.
Nicola - 15/11/2019
Better than Expected, It's spotless! we liked the close proximity to the harbour and the stunning views. Lovely surprise to receive a "welcome back" gift and the 10% off voucher is also a nice touch.
The Duffy Family - 19/09/2019
Better than Expected, with even better views, comfort and attention to detail. - A beautiful place to stay!
The Jordan Party - 15/06/2019
At Wentworth Retreat we like the views from most of the windows, it’s position was central but really quiet. The 2 sitting rooms were excellent for 6 adults, a baby and a dog. We would rate the property 4.5 out of 5 and would stay here again!
Deb - 05/06/2019
A wonderful place to stay. We liked the Sea Views and the amount of space for a family get together. The quality of the bed linen and towels was excellent!

Wells-next-the-Sea
Location
Wells-next-the Sea is the runaway winner of the first Sunday Times "Beach of the Year" award. It's a delightful unspoilt historic town on the North Norfolk Coast with a jumble of old buildings and lanes still existing from its heritage as a port and former maltings industry. The picturesque quay and waterfront is still very much a working port with fishing boats still berthed in this small harbour and stalls selling locally caught shrimps, crabs and whelks. A popular place with sailors with many sailing and leisure craft here and local sailing tuition available. Children enjoy the facilities round the quay and the challenge of crabbing (gillying) from the steep harbour wall.
The main shopping area of Wells is Staithe Street, a narrow, mostly pedestrianised lane with surviving Victorian and Edwardian shop fronts, that runs from the water's edge right up to the top part of town. In the centre of the town is The Buttlands which is a large rectangular green lined with Georgian and late Victorian houses, which used to be used for archery practise in medieval days. Now it is home to the excellent Crown hotel and restaurant which is run by Kiwi celebrity chef
The sandy beach flanked by pine forest is about a mile from the quay and can be reached by road, on foot along the causeway or via the miniature railway.
Holkham Hall with its impressive 18th century Palladian architecture and 3,000 acre deer park is only a couple of miles away along the coast road.
