The property is the perfect getaway for a group of friends with plenty of areas to take a rest should it be needed. Perfect location within walking distance of the town, should you wish to venture out. The property had everything you can think of, and to a high standard. Highly recommend.
Another great stay and holiday at the lovely Laylands. The location is perfect, very clean on arrival and well equipped in all areas. We can’t wait to return! We enjoyed eating out nearby and recommend the crab house, A&M fresh fish stall, new pizza place Flour, Frenches and Socius but also made very good use of the large kitchen and BBQ as it’s such a nice place to cook, relax and gather. The light railway was fun and the two local beaches amazing as ever. Couple of niggles, the first-floor room to the left as you come up the stairs needs a new mattress, it was very uncomfortable with loose springs. Also, the blind cords in the upstairs top room designed for the little ones have no safety clips so they needed to be made safe each night. Everything else was perfect!
Inside of the property excellent, outside needs a bit of TOC. Key safe very difficult to locate - we had to phone for help. Great location, easy walk to pubs and restaurants.
Excellent location within easy reach of all Wells has to offer . Great house - accommodating 6 adults and 4 children with ease . Very well equipped kitchen and plenty of lovely rooms to spread out in if needed . Highly recommend. We had a great family weekend.
Super Christmas stay for the whole family! The house is beautiful and happily, beautifully decorated for Christmas. Proximity to the beach and town was a big plus!l One caveat, the stair gate supplied had been damaged previously and could not be installed. Fortunately we had 6 adults to keep an eye on the littlest one. We did expect the house to be a bit chilly - on the contrary, we found it almost too warm. All in all, a super visit - highly recommended!
Used Laylands as a family get away for my 60th birthday. The property was superb and in a great location. We all had a fantastic time👍
Really lovely place to stay. Great location. Definitely worth booking and would do so again. Big bonus also was the enclosed rear garden felt really safe for the children.
A perfect holiday. Thank you!
Beautiful house, great location. Everything was spotlessly clean with lots of added extras. Welcome pack was a nice touch.
Perfect stay in a perfect location.house was immaculate,all needs catered for,warm comfortable and plenty of space for our three families.
Great home, spacious and lovely location.
A clean, spacious and charming house, well-located for the expansive local beaches and historic town of Wells-next-the-Sea.
Beautiful house, well equipped in a great position for the town/beach. We had a fabulous week.
Beautiful property, well appointed, fantastic location 5 minutes from the town and 30 minutes walk to one of the country’s best beaches. We had just the best family holiday.
Beautiful, large and comfortable house. Split between the original building and a vast modern extension on the back of the house. Beds comfortable, equipment of good quality. Stayed in December and heating very efficient and house well insulated, which is great at keeping those North Sea winds at bay during the winter! Must be delightful to visit in Summer and make use of the patio and garden.
The property is simply amazing. The kitchen is large and well equipped with a really nice social area raised to one side. The living room has an incredible wood burning stove and makes for a really cosy space. Upstairs is equally amazing with large comfortable beds and nice bathrooms. The place can be hard to find at night for the first time as the SATNAV does not know where it is. It would be nice if the TV in the front room had a Soundbar or similar as it is hard to hear in such a large space. Alll in all though a beautiful place in an amazing village.
Excellent position in Wells,with offstreet parking, extremely flexible accomodation with high quality fixtures and fittings. The house is warm and inviting and the housekeeping was of an excellent standard.
Lovely big house. Very well equipped. Suitable for 3 generations to spread out. We could walk into Wells next the sea and the beach was fabulous.
Well situated and many thoughtful additions for a stay on the North Norfolk Coast. The house was ideal for our family and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. If fully occupied by 10 adults the fridge space is probably limited for both food and drinks storage and a double sink would also be a good addition to the kitchen but those are observations only.
Splendid House. Full of Character, charm and historic interest. Spacious, comfortable and well equipped. Excellent in every respect. We will book it again.

As all restrictions have been lifted across the United Kingdom, you are no longer legally required to self-isolate upon a positive Covid-19 result. You won’t be asked to take daily tests or isolate following contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. This means, if you would like to modify or cancel your booking due to Covid-19, our normal terms and conditions now apply.
If the restrictions are reintroduced and you are forced to cancel your holiday due to legal restrictions, please be rest assured that we will help you to move your booking within the same property, offer a voucher to be used within the same property within a year or cancel your booking in this instance and we will refund you the price you paid in full.
If you are concerned about the potential impact of Covid-19 on your holiday plans, outside of legal restrictions, we strongly advise you to seek out travel insurance which covers you in these and other eventualities.
