Why choose a luxury holiday lodge at Pinewoods?
Our holiday lodges add that bit more to your holiday. Take a look at what they offer, and what you’ll find at Pinewoods.
Dog friendly lodges available
Some of our holiday lodges allow up to two dogs. If you’re bringing your pups, please add them to your booking.
More space to enjoy
Our lodges are 78-80m2 – approximately double the size of a caravan- meaning there’s more room to spread out! Enjoy greater comfort across the living spaces and bedrooms.
Natural surroundings
With the beach, pine woods, Holkham National Nature Reserve and Abrahams Bosom lake all nearby, you can relax amongst nature, birdwatch, and enjoy the fresh air.
Street food evenings

Arrival times
Guests staying in our lodges benefit from earlier check in times – you can arrive from 2pm.
Pinewoods Store
The on-site shop stocks food (including local produce, snacks, breakfast items and some meal ingredients), drinks, souvenirs and practical essentials for your holiday.
Wells Beach Bus
If you don’t feel like walking into Wells town, our electric bus or vintage Leyland Tiger can take you!
Parking
Each of the holiday lodges comes with hard standing parking bays right outside, with space for two cars. So if the boot’s full of bags, you won’t have to carry them far!
Recycling
The environment is important to us. Please help by separating your waste during your stay, and feel free to ask us what else we’re doing to lessen our impact.
Luxury lodges for families
Our lodges will be perfect for your family break.
They’re twice the size of a normal caravan, so there’s more space to spread out, and more storage for all those toys and games that just had to come too!
There are three bedrooms separated from the living space, so after the kids are in bed, the grown ups can enjoy relaxing without having to keep the noise down.
Some of our family friendly lodges are dog friendly too, so there’s no need to leave them behind.
Wonderful Wells
Wells-next-the-Sea is a picturesque seaside town, known for the expansive Wells beach, considered one of the UK’s very best beaches.
Unwind with coastal walks, whether along the shoreline or through the cool shade of the pine woods, or hop on a bike and explore the surrounding countryside.
Alternatively, stroll into town for a fresh coffee and pastry, seaside fish and chips, or a bite at one of the many inviting spots along the quayside and Staithe Street. Browse local galleries and independent shops, then round off your day with a drink in a pub garden or at wine bar… or perhaps with a scoop (or two!) of ice cream by quay.

We stayed in a Saltmarsh 7 lodge and it had everything we needed. The children loved the quirky three bunk room.
Very comfortable, quiet location overlooking the nature reserve.
