A few comments from our visitors book in 2011:

Another wonderful stay in Cockleshell cottage with the usual very welcoming reception from Liz - not to mention a marvellous week of dry spring-like weather.

Our first visit to Wells and a perfect location to stay. A warm welcome and very homely accommodation have made it a super holiday (the weather has helped!) Wonderful, thanks!

Lovely cottage, great break, many lovely walks and a very warm welcome.

We've had several self catering holidays but none have been as good as this. The cottage is so well equipped and Liz's hospitality so welcoming. 1st class cottage!

Lovely cottage, one of the best we've had. Welcome most warm, tops marks to Liz. Great holiday, well done Liz.

Our 4th stay at Cockleshell cottage! Only the weather could have been better! We've all had a wonderful week - Wells beach, crabbing, Pensthorpe to name but a few. Thank you Liz, see you next year!

Our 4th stay - fantastic holiday including weather. We love this cottage, definitely come back. Thanks Liz!

A short but fabulous stay. Will definitely try and come back for longer next time. Huge thanks to Liz for your help. Loved the cottage.

Thank you so much Liz and Cockleshell Cottage - a most enjoyable stay, loved every minute - wish it was longer.

Enjoyed our stay in your lovely cottage. Very comfortable and a real home from home. Will return next year.

Second time here, we feel so at home. This cottage is very special to us, as is Wells.

Relaxing week in Cockleshell Cottage, thanks to our wonderful host Liz.

Fabulous stay, your cottage and welcome is second to none, we hope to return, thank you Liz.

Location

Cockleshell Cottage is located in a charming area of this traditional North Norfolk coastal town. It is a few minutes' walk from the quay, the shops and the popular Buttlands. Wells also boasts a fantastic sandy beach. Fishing boats still come in and out of the harbour and the children love gillying for crabs from the quayside. The North Norfolk coast is an outstanding area for birdwatching.

Wells beach is truly a gem of the Norfolk Coast. A row of picturesque, brightly coloured beach huts sit in between the pine forest and the 4 mile stretch of golden sand, some of which are available to hire.
The beach is part of one of the largest nature reserves in the country, and despite its enormous popularity with families from around the UK there is always plenty of space to find a lovely spot to spend a day enjoying the surroundings. Large outcrops of sand dunes separate the main body of the beach from the sea at low tide, though you should listen out for the siren which warns of the rising tide, to avoid being cut off by the tide as it comes back in through a creek that cuts across the beach.

The beach itself is over a mile from the town of Wells itself, and although you can drive down to the dedicated beach car park, many visitors choose to take a ride on the Wells Harbour Railway, a miniature light railway service which runs back and forth from the town to the beach itself.

Wells quay has an abundance of cafes, shops and arcades which in the summer are bustling with families making the most of the seaside experience, whilst closer to the beach the Pinewood holiday centre provides activities such as lake boating, trampolining and crazy golf.

Wells has a large choice of hotels, pubs and restaurants and there are plenty of holiday cottages to rent, and places offering Bed and Breakfast.
