The Crown Hotel

Chef-owned Buttlands hotel with dog rooms a walk from Wells quay

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
“A former coaching inn on The Buttlands, the Georgian green at the top of Wells-next-the-Sea, run for over 20 years by New Zealand-born chef Chris Coubrough. Several of the cosy first-floor rooms are marked dog friendly, some looking over the green. It suits a short coastal break where you want the town, the quay and the beach on foot. Dogs are allowed in parts of the main building, so say you're bringing one when you book.

Why it's in the collection

The Buttlands green is right outside, and the sea wall from Wells quay takes you about 1.5 km to Wells Beach and the pinewoods, with Holkham Beach beyond.

Best suited for

Dogs stay in selected rooms and are allowed in parts of the hotel only, so book by phone.

Dogs stay in designated rooms (including Rooms 2, 3, 4 and 7) and are welcome in parts of the main building. The hotel asks you to call ahead so it can seat you in a dog-friendly area.

Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
