A superb and unique luxury property with a private balcony overlooking the iconic Buttlands right in the heart of the beautiful and sought after seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea, Castle House boasts views over the lovely leafy green square. This boutique retreat comes with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, a large sunny fully enclosed garden and off-street parking for two cars, making it perfect for one or two couples wanting to be close to the beaches and Holkham.
Castle House is a real gem. With two gourmet pub/restaurants literally on your doorstep just across the square, you can enjoy good food and wine. Enjoy breakfast at Bang! in Wells, before taking the short stroll down Staithe Street to the quay, or walk a little further and you will soon have sand between your toes as you explore the gorgeous white sandy beach flanked by a pine forest and an iconic row of colourful beach huts.
Offering stylish accommodation for up to four guests with beautifully styled kitchen/dining area, this fantastic house has entertaining and relaxing at the heart of its DNA. At first glance Castle House may look small from the outside, but step inside and Castle House is deceptively spacious.
Let the sunshine into the social kitchen/dining area through a pretty stable door and people-watch from the comfort of your breakfast table. With Miele appliances fitted in the superb kitchen you may not want to eat out, but with so many options in Wells you might just be tempted to sample the local seafood and local produce. Before heading out for supper, take time to make your own cocktails in the small bar area which also has a wine chiller and additional integrated fridge to keep your favourite tipple cool when you return from the beach. To the rear of the property is a large sitting room with a large corner sofa, wood burning stove, widescreen Smart TV and even a record turntable allowing you to enjoy Castle House's very own vinyl collection. Bi-fold doors open out onto the paved patio area with garden furniture and beyond this is a large private walled garden where you can sunbathe, relax or barbecue in the sunshine, or maybe seek out some shade and peace and quiet to simply chill and read a book.
Furnished and decorated to a boutique hotel standard in a fresh, vibrant and contemporary style, there is a light and airy feel to all the rooms and the lantern roof light above the hallway and upstairs landing is a striking feature that floods the inner rooms with light. Upstairs you will find two gorgeous bedrooms; a master en-suite with super-king size bed plus a balcony to the front, allowing you to enjoy morning coffee in the sunshine or sundowners when you return after a busy day exploring, plus a twin bedroom with two 3 ft single beds and a family bathroom so if you are two couples holidaying together then you will have plenty of privacy. Castle House will appeal to those seeking a luxury retreat in an unrivalled position and is perfect for a short break or longer stay for couples or a small family.
