The Blakeney Hotel

About The Blakeney Hotel

The Blakeney Hotel sits directly on the quay at Blakeney, around four miles east of Wells-next-the-Sea, and has built a long-standing reputation for traditional hospitality on this stretch of the north Norfolk coast. Sixty individually decorated rooms make it one of the larger hotels in the area, many with views across the estuary towards Blakeney Point. The restaurant has held two AA Rosettes for its cooking, and the hotel's leisure facilities, including an indoor swimming pool, sauna, steam room and gym, are unusual for a hotel of this style and setting. Seal-watching boat trips to Blakeney Point depart from the quay just outside, alongside paddleboarding and kayaking on the estuary. Blakeney itself is a smaller, quieter village than Wells, built around flint cottages and the same saltmarsh landscape, making the hotel a good base for anyone wanting a slightly more genteel setting within easy reach of Wells, Cley and the wider Norfolk Coast Path.
