Located in Wells-next-the-Sea, Tusker House is a very picturesque detached character property, in a super elevated and peaceful location. With a pretty cottage garden and, what everyone wants in Wells, a parking space, this hideaway is the ideal base from which to explore this popular coastal holiday destination, and beyond.
Tusker House has been a much-loved family home for many years. Recently updated, the house still has a very warm, welcoming and homely feel and will particularly appeal to families but is also perfect for couples and friends to enjoy. Furnished with an easy mix of family heirlooms and modern furniture, the house is a comfortable and relaxing place to be. Downstairs you are spoilt for choice with three reception rooms - a sitting room with open fire and french doors to the garden, a dining room and a snug/children's television room. The well-equipped modern fitted kitchen is a more recent addition to the house and overlooks the garden. There's also a shower room on the ground floor - very handy for dealing with small sandy people after a day on the beach! Upstairs there are four bedrooms (two doubles, a twin, and single) and a family bathroom. The charming enclosed garden is at the back of the house. At the bottom of the garden is an off road parking area where there is space for one medium sized car.
From the house, you are only a few minutes' level walking distance to the centre of this ever popular seaside town, with its bustling quayside, independent shops, cafes and some excellent gastro pubs. It's just a five minute walk to the Quay and from there you can reach Wells beach in another ten to fifteen minutes. It's well worth the walk - this is one of the most stunning beaches and stretches as far as the eye can see. Bliss!
Additional Information: Sorry, no pets. Travel cot and high chair available on request. Please bring your own linen for the travel cot.

We had a lovely holiday at Tusker House, a beautiful, well maintained property with a lovely garden. We had an issue with the number of towels that had been provided for 4 adults, which despite informing the agents immediately, was not resolved before we left. This was not a major issue, but it does mean that I feel unable to make this a ‘5 star’ review.

Tasteful and comfortable cottage
Perfect holiday for our party of six. Every room clean and tastefully decorated. Beds were very comfortable and good showers. Beautiful garden and well located on a quiet lane with parking space for one car and we found a place for the other car on Bases Lane. Easy walk to Holkham Hall and ideally situated for the coastal path. Seals at Blakney are a must.
Kitchen needed a few more things e.g. egg cups, weighing scales.
Will come back xx
