Wells-Next-The-Sea has a special place in my heart for many reasons. It was where we visited the seaside as children and as parents. And it’s where I began my oil-painting adventure. I used to journey here in my VW Camper and stay over night at various secluded places. I especially liked waking up at daybreak to paint the terrific sunrises you get here. Now, a good friend of mine owns a flat here on Buttlands Park, so it’s become very convenient too.

The Albatross is a North Sea Clipper built in 1899 near Rotterdam and underwent a full restoration and a refit in Maldon, Essex, by the Marine Heritage Foundation before being moored at Wells-Next-the-Sea in 2019. I remember it being ‘Will’s of Wells’—a coffee shop that also offered a range of delicios pancakes!

Unfortunately, The Albatross left Wells-Next-The-Sea for a few years for further renovation, I expect, and so it was really pleasing to see it back and looking so good for 2024.
