The Victoria
“A great location adjacent to Holkham beach.” - AA Inspector
WELLS-NEXT-THE-SEA, NORFOLK
Our Inspector's view
The Victoria is just a short stroll from the golden sands of Holkham beach and the gates of Holkham Park, and is a great base for exploring North Norfolk's coastline and countryside. Public rooms include a choice of cosy lounges, a bar, open-plan dining room and a conservatory that opens up onto a terrace. The individually appointed bedrooms are split over two historical buildings; each room is tastefully decorated and equipped with modern facilities. They range from small, cosy doubles to large family suites, and dogs are welcome in the main building. The hotel's restaurant is a big draw, delivering outstanding meals that are fresh, local and seasonal.

About the area
Discover Norfolk
The North Norfolk Coast is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and probably the finest of its kind in Europe. Here you’ll find a string of quaint villages and small towns – Holkham, Wells-next-the-Sea and Cley next the Sea are 21st-century favourites, while Sheringham and Cromer are classic examples of a good old-fashioned seaside resort where grand Victorian hotels look out to sea. Further round the coast you'll find Great Yarmouth, one of the most popular resorts in the UK and packed full of amusements, shops and seashore entertainment. And let's not forget Norwich, the region's only city.
Norfolk prides itself on its wealth of historic houses, the most famous being Sandringham, where Her Majesty the Queen and her family spend Christmas. Many of Norfolk’s towns have a particular charm and a strong sense of community. The quiet market towns of Fakenham and Swaffham are prime examples, as well as Thetford, with its popular museum focusing on the TV comedy series Dad’s Army which was filmed in the area.
