Please ensure you have the read the following information in preparation for your Happy Huts visit.
​
Do have a read of our FAQ's too as this should cover any of those burning questions you may have.
The water taps are now on! And water containers are provided.
Access
Access for all huts is via a key code box, you will receive an email with the key code the day before at 10:00am, please check your junk folder. You will also receive a reminder at 07:00am the day of your booking. For anyone who makes a last minute booking then you will just receive the one email at 07:00am. - don't forget to check your junk folder.
Arrival time is strictly from 0930 (you can arrive later!) There is no departure time but the car park gets locked each night so please check the times when you arrive.
Key code boxes are located up the steps of the hut on the inside banister/balcony railings. (If in the unlikely event you lock the key inside the beach hut there are emergency key boxes underneath the huts, these open with the same code)
We check all huts daily however If you have a hut booked for more than one day it will not be checked in between - if you run out of gas/supplies please message us!
Water containers are provided and taps for water are located in the car park, at hut number 41 and at hut number 138.
Please remember a tea towel, ALL washing up must be done and put away on departure.
Parking
Having a beach hut booked does not guarantee you a parking space. There is a pay and display car park on beach road, but it fills up very quickly in the summer months, usually by 09:30/10:00 it is full ** and you will be re-directed to the overspill carpark in Freeman Street, you can then either walk which takes about 40 minutes or take the Holkham bus there are also other additional car parks in Wells town and it is approx. 1 mile from here to the beach. For more information on parking please visit.
​Wells Guide
Beach address: Beach Road, Wells, Wells-Next-The-Sea NR23 1DR.
Beach Road Car Park opening times:
October - March - 0600 - 1800
April - September - 0600- 2100
The car park on beach road during peak months often doesn't allow vehicles larger than 2m high, it is best to call Pinewoods directly ahead to check (01328 710439) The car park is pay and display and accepts cards & contactless.
​
This is now the case across most of the car parks in Wells too, if you plan to travel in a vehicle that is above 2m high we would advise researching where to park before you arrive or make some further enquiries with the car park operatives.
​
** No refunds will be given if you cannot get parked. In the summer months Wells town also gets very busy so we would advise arriving as early as possible.
