Wells is also really accepting of dogs, the woods and beach together are excellent, the tide goes out so far and leaves large puddles for small dogs to run through. Most of the shops have dog water bowls outside and even the little bakery has a selection of homemade dog treats.

Brilliant, that brought back a lot of memories . Wells is a lovely place , there’s also the fantastic beach and the beach huts .

You really should visit the most amazing beach along the walk way from the harbour it’s like a Caribbean beach with beach huts on stilts such a shame you missed it . I often visit wells I love it I enjoyed the video

We recently moved up from Hertfordshire to Norfolk and spend nearly every weekend at lovely Wells! It is just so picturesque ♥ Please go back and show the most wonderful beach in the country (obviously my unbiased opinion 😆🤣) with the prettiest beach huts and lovely pine trees. Also at the end of the video you missed the opportunity to cross the road into Buttlands, some wonderful houses around a very quaint village green and two very nice pubs (The Globe being one).....Thank you for a great walk 👍👍👍👍👍

Lovely Wells, :) i'm a bit surprised you didnt go to the huge beach as well with the beach huts even if just to film with a drone its lovely there, maybe another time? but still a great video, thanks.

We enjoyed a brilliant week in Wells, in 2022. We absolutely loved it. Your video is brilliant and captures what the town is like, but there's even more to it than that. Even after a week there we feel like we didn't see everything. One day we'll return!

As a number of folk have said, there are many aspects that you missed, like the beach, the churches and The Buttlands and, of course, the East End, but this is only to be expected in one short wander! Talking of 'quaint', The High Street has its charm even 'though all of its many 'working town' shops and pubs from the past are now only hinted at as shopfronts to the residential premises behind them. While on the Quay and showing the old Granary, you did miss the opportunity to explain that it ( including its iconic loading gantry ) has now been turned into luxury flats! Even so, this is one of the better videos I have seen on the town!

Wells is beautiful love the fish and chips stayed in a hotel there it has a outstanding beach

My absolute favourite beach, I live in Norfolk so I am biased 😂shame you missed the actual beach, best fish and chips too 😊

I use to come here as a teenager in the 80's. It was our go too holidays. We use to treck through the pinewoods to the beach. We stayed at pinewood caravan park. We had fish and chips on the harbour front. The walk was quite long from the caravan park to the harbour, or you could get a little train. Those buildings by the harbour were not there in the 80's. Good memories. Thankyou for this. 🙂

Great video, love the place but you must go back and video the wonderful beach, sand dunes and colourful beach huts its stunning . Brought back happy memories of the last holiday I had there with my parents. Thankyou so much 😊🤗

Looks nicer than Cromer saw a walking tour there recently and I think Wells is much nicer. I will put it on my itinerary for September as I took Cromer off. Wells seems to make a feature of the crab which is why I thought of visiting Cromer but there was nothing relating to Cromer crab in the place a bit short sighted of the town. Thanks for sharing this video❤️

Wells is so lovely and we have been there several times over the years whilst staying in Sheringham. Good to see your video as not been for about 3 years.

I did like Wells it is very pretty there. I did not get as far as the beach as it was too far for me to walk (I will try and do that next time) but there was very little in the town itself. I prefer Sheringham and Cromer.

Booked a week there in September - dog friendly dog beach is the best ever 👍

As said previously quite a lot missing from this vlog. They do have a Summer holidays Carnival week. Also usually do a film sing along event on the Buttlands green grass park area at the top of Staithe street. Very popular films have included Grease, Calamity Jane...etc. words are shown on the screen to sing along too. Good arcades, some with ticket machines. Sea fishing trips. And you saw lots of Lobster pot cages, as very large Lobster fields out at sea for the fishing trawlers. Seal sight seeing trips are down the road at Blakeney, Cley and Morston. Burnham Overy Staithe is also worth a visit, although similar to Blakeney, Cley and Morston. Great Beaches at Wells, Holkham, Brancaster and further along the coast both ways.

That's interesting. Some years ago since I was a frequent visitor to Wells, but I do have no hesitation in saying that of the two fish and chip shops there, one was best avoided and the other was outstandingly good (at least at the height of the season when demand was high). Taking account of the queues outside the respective establishments, I would say my judgment was shared by others. French's is the one to go to!

Such a nice harbour, one of the most beautiful parts of Norfolk, did you know there was also a large beach there?

stunning ,its like you say bit like old Bridlington and chapel st leonards ,cant get over the grassy plains dotted around in the water would love to see it in the winter .

I taught my two sons how to row a boat in the harbour many years ago. We would row from behind the lifeboat station up into the town end of the harbour and back, but only when the tide was in. Also pleasse show the narrow gauge steam train that runs alongside the enbankment from Pine trees campsite to the carpark behind the harbour masters office.

I've been here a few times, Neil. Wells is an amazing place that introduced me to Samphire with a splash of vinegar... Lovely. Youve definitely encouraged me to make a return trip. 👍

The only thing about Norfolk, you need a car mostly to get to these places if you don’t drive and since the 1970’s trains don’t run to wells any more or any other places that as lost this service to parts of the uk as well as Norfolk or even Suffolk as I live on the border and the town I come from had two stations now only one….😢

That’s sad to hear Are the trains not very good in Norfolk now?

I liked it much better 30 yrs ago when you could ride the little train from the harbour down to the caravan park where you could take a bargain holiday close to the beach. There was a brilliant little shop in town where you could shop for loads of food bargains. Parking was easier and cheaper. I felt disappointed when we visited last year. Everything's tried to go too 'up market'.

Lovely spot, but it gets go busy now during the summer. Now I tend to visit out of season.

Great video Wells used to be. Norfolk is best kept secret, but now it’s over run by hipsters and second homeowners I’m afraid.

You've gone and done it again ! Wells is one of my most favourite places(as well as the rest of North Norfolk) :) I first went there with my friend (and then boss) who was born and raised in Norfolk. I loved it so much that I even got married there. The last time I was in Wells was in 2000 and it's so lovely to see it again. Thank you xxx

Boat trip to see seals is good. And go inland to walsingham church and animal sanctuary

Hope you're ok after your fall on Hunstanton🤕 I had a day trip to Wells while on holiday in Hunstanton. I've been before but this time it was May. Very windy and quiet and some of the shops weren't open but it was still a lovely walk round with the dog. It's a beautiful place😍
