Stearmans Cottage is a Grade II listed detached cottage dating back to 1750, originally used as an ostler's cottage, now sympathetically renovated throughout to create a warm and comfortable holiday home. It's conveniently located in the heart of Wells-next-the-Sea, close to the quay with the advantage of a private parking space and an enclosed south facing courtyard garden. This charming cottage has beamed ceilings, exposed brickwork, feature glass windows, combined with modern comforts including a contemporary kitchen and newly fitted bathrooms. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, a family bathroom and an en-suite shower room. This is a great historic place to stay throughout the year with the beauty of the North Norfolk coast literally on your doorstep.
