Had a really lovely experience here. The beach hut was pretty and clean and had lots in it to use, kettle, water cannister, beach toys and a kite. Enough chairs for us to use plus a picnic blanket. It even had a hammock which was a real bonus! Good instructions and was nice reading the guest book. The only slight niggle was that the steps were quite high and narrow so not suitable if you need less steps. But it allowed hammock space!

Anon

Stunning beach hut. Everything included from deck chairs & blankets, to cutlery, plates, wine glasses, all you need to bring is yourselves plus food! Beach hut located right in the middle so a lovely walk thru the woods first before dropping down onto the beach to access the hut. Only negative was the steep steps up to the beach hut which could make this hut unsuitable for the less mobile (elderly or young children)

Anon

Marvellous experience on an unexpectedly warm and sunny day in October. Only the third time we've hired a beach hut despite living locally and this place truly deserves it's rave reviews. The owners really have thought of everything you need for the perfect day out at Wells next the Sea.

Anon

The perfect day! Honestly so impressed with how pretty and well maintained the beach hut is. Value for money is also amazing. The facilities and information given before we arrived really made our day stress free. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you.

NicolaC

An absolute treasure! We made such magical memories in the hut and will be back. Beautifully decorated and cleverly designed!

ThomasK

May be worth letting potential renters who maybe less able know that steps to hut are steep. Loved it

Anon

We had a great time, thank you. We will be back as we live locally. Lovely hut and facilities.
