The perfect way to spend your Christmas holiday – fresh sea air, great walking, gorgeous scenery right on the doorstep, lovely company, relaxed environment and fabulous food too!

Would you like to escape the usual Christmas routine and try something different this year? We are really looking forward to spending this Christmas on the beautiful North Norfolk Coast. Wells-next-the-Sea is an ideal location with many  walks straight from the front door and plenty of independent shops and cafes to visit too. We will certainly head along the coast in both directions – towards Blakeney where the seals hang out and Burnham Overy Staithe with its salt marshes and sand dunes.

The holiday will be based at Wells Youth Hostel and we will have exclusive use. There is a cosy lounge, large dining room and plenty of space to relax. It is situated near to the centre of the village in a quiet location with ample parking.

The holiday is full board with vegetarian meals being prepared for us on site. Breakfast and lunch will be on a help your self basis with a good range of tasty options provided.

The walks on this holiday will be 7 miles or longer with few gradients as the majority will be coastal walks. The pace will be leisurely with plenty of opportunities to enjoy the views and stop for breaks. If you prefer a shorter walk there may be opportunities to catch the bus back to the accommodation.

We will have exclusive use of Wells-next- the- Sea Youth Hostel. Accommodation is in dorms with up to 4 beds although we will ensure that we have no more than 2 people per room. The hostel provides bed linen but you will need to bring a towel and toiletries. Being a hostel, there is very limited single occupancy so please do book well in advance if you would like a single room. You are welcome to bring your own wine, etc to have with dinner.

Your guide for this holiday is Clare Kelly.
