OWNER INSIGHT

"We have lived in Wellswood for 18 years, and feel privileged to be part of its friendly community. One of the joys is being able to walk out of the gate and, within minutes, have access to all amenities including a pharmacy, post office, newsagents, restaurants, cafes, hairdressers and a vibrant pub. The property is warm and cosy in the winter and cool in the summer. We ve had many happy gatherings in the sunny courtyard which is a suntrap and having private parking is also a bonus. The local walks are wonderful, encompassing both coastal and woodland. The two local beach cafes serve delicious snacks and provide opportunities to enjoy kayaking, swimming, paddle boarding etc. Also within comfortable walking distance is the town and harbour, as well as an excellent bus service just around the corner."
