Property information

At the heart of Wells-next-the-Sea lies the town’s picturesque quay, overlooked by Shipyard Studio and its fabulous first-floor balcony. Imagine letting a peaceful morning drift by with coffee and a good book as the tide ebbs and flows, covering the sandy channel and rescuing marooned boats while the blue water glistens in the morning sun. The bustling, quaint town of Wells, with its local independent cafes and shops, is just a short stroll away. Shipyard Studio is an ideal year-round retreat!

Neighbourhood information

Beside the obviously beautiful views on your doorstep, Shipyard Studio also offers one of the most convenient locations in Wells-Next-The-Sea with many amenities, shops, and cafes just minutes away. The quayside frontage is about 2-3 minutes walk away and is lined with restaurants, ice cream shops and arcades, whilst a few minutes further and you'll find yourself on Staithe Street. A delightful little pedestrianised street lined with independent stores, tourist shops and food outlets. Shipyard Studio is so close to the water and salt marsh that you may well see and hear formations of Geese fly overhead, one of winters spectaculars. For bird watchers this spot is the perfect base. Continue along Staithe Street and you'll come out by the Buttlands Green which has a further selection of pubs and restaurants, with favourites like The Globe Inn and The Crown favourites amongst locals and visitors alike. Of course, it wouldn't be a trip to Wells without a visit to the beach! Walking from the car park and seaside café, visitors have the chance to amble through the pine wood forest which sits behind the beach and come out at by the famous colourful beach huts which Wells has become so well known for. Tides can drift out exceptionally far on this part of the coast and can make for a unique beach day experience if timed correctly. As the sea drifts out small bodies of water are left behind which make for great fun to jump in and explore - especially for those travelling with children. Alternatively, a more conventional beach day can certainly be enjoyed with large swathes of sand for sunbathing! Possibly one of the closest properties to the beach in all of Wells, Shipyard Studio is roughly a 25-minute walk to the beach, or just a few minutes in the car. Outside of Wells, there's a range of towns and beaches to explore all along the coast, such as Brancaster, Blakeney, Salthouse, and Sheringham all within easy reach by car, whilst towns further inland such as...
