About this cottage rental
Algerine Cottage is lauded for it's perfect location. A delightful, spacious, dog-friendly cottage situated within 100 yards of the quay in the stunning harbour of Wells-next-the-Sea, and close to local shops and amenities.
Tucked away up a narrow lane just off the harbour of this lively harbour town, Algerine is perfect place for soggy children and dogs to potter home to after a paddle. Tiled floors downstairs and a ground floor bathroom make this a popular choice for dog owners and active families who like to get down and dirty exploring the beaches and coastal path. The inclusion of a ground floor bedroom combined with the cottage's proximity to the town amenities means Algerine ticks the boxes for families of mixed ages and abilities, or those who wish to leave the car behind. With a well-equipped kitchen, coastal touches, one single bedroom, one king-size and two double bedrooms with plenty of storage, plus an additional shower room upstairs, Algerine Cottage is very practical whilst retaining the charm of an old fisherman's cottage. The cottage has gas central heating and two gas effect wood burning stoves in the sitting room and dining area, making it a great year round retreat for people looking for peace and quiet with everything on the doorstep, from pubs and shops, to miles and miles of scenic walks.
The lane is very narrow, meaning there is no designated parking for Algerine Cottage, the advantage being very little passing traffic. You're more likely to see alpacas wander past as they are taken on their walks round the back lanes and lokes of Wells. You can find free street parking nearby.
Additional Information:
Three well behaved dogs are welcome (small additional charge).
Travel cot and high chair available on request. Please bring your own mattress and linen for the travel cot.

Spotless but loft hatch too small so cold draft when the wind blows. Downstairs curtain pulls both broken. Downstairs tiled throughout so would be cold in the autumn and winter. Close to amenities and parking was hit and miss.

A very well positioned, pretty property that looks great. On closer inspection there were bits that weren't in full working order, the manual for the heating didn't match the actual heating control, some curtains were broken, the sink didn't drain properly. The sofas weren't overly comfortable. The smallest room down stairs was fine when the door was open but when it had been shut you could smell damp in the room.
The property was lovely, don't get me wrong, it just lacked complete TLC which is what I would hope for when paying a large amount of money.
The position of the property completely made up for the complete TLC. A very short walk into Wells and the area is lovely and quiet with many great walks on your doorstep.

Algerine Cottage is in a lovely quiet location just a very short walk from Wells Harbour and the perfect location to explore both Wells and the surrounding areas. We spent 4 nights there in March. Parking close by wasn't a problem. We dropped our luggage off and then went off to find suitable parking a few minutes walk away.
The cottage is clean and tidy with all the basics required for a short break. The kitchen is well equipped and clean, although there is no microwave. There is ample hot water and towels.
It's ideal for anyone looking for a basic holiday home with no frills in a great location.
The small downstairs bedroom smelt strongly of damp as did the shower room upstairs and despite being hardy souls the bedrooms were freezing on the first night and the bedlinen felt damp.
Once we'd tweaked the heating it was fine and the house rapidly heated up.
Whilst it might have been a little cramped if the suggested occupancy of 7 stayed it was perfect for the 3 friends who shared the house for a short break, and we had a lovely 4 night break.
