Lovely cottage

Hebe Cottage was absolutely delightful. It was decorated beautifully and spotlessly clean. It was in such a convenient location and we always found parking a short walk away. When we come back to the area we would love to stay there again.

The house is beautiful and has everything you need. It was no problem finding a parking space near the cottage. It's only a short walk into town where you can find lovely little shops with local and unique products. The only thing we missed was some seat cushions for the garden chairs. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

About the host

Hosted by Liz and James Hitchcock

Host profile image
Hebe Cottage is owned by Liz and James. We fell in love with Wells and North Norfolk and followed our dream of owning a cottage there. We bought Hebe Cottage in November 2014 and have enjoyed furnishing it as well as staying there as we prepare to welcome guests. We have two young children, hence our experience of Norfolk is from a family perspective, however we are looking forward to learning more as the family grow up. We hope you enjoy Hebe Cottage as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We chose Hebe Cottage because of its proximity to the stunning beach at Wells.

As a family we have spent a lot of time cycling to enjoy the countryside and visit some of the local attractions. There are a huge number of events taking place throughout the year so it is also worth while checking out what's on before booking.

We are constantly surprised by the quality and number of places to visit; it really is a very special place.

What makes this property unique

We love the fact that we can walk to shops, high quality restaurants and even the beach.

The cottage is light and airy with a beautiful outside space meaning that we can enjoy evenings bbq-ing in the sun. It's rare in Wells to find such a secluded space at the heart of the town.
