Leading Brands of Outdoor Clothing at Beachcomber Wells

Welcome to BEACHCOMBER, our popular Norfolk shop for all things outdoor and country clothing, at number 55 Staithe Street in Wells-next-the-Sea.

Known as Christopher William Country and Coastal for the past 7 years, owners Trish and Chris decided to channel their love of the North Norfolk coast and take the shop back to its roots – Beachcomber opened originally in Wells over 60 years ago.

Beachcomber is in the centre of Wells, on Staithe Street, a stone’s throw from the iconic quay and fishing boats, and within walking distance of beautiful Wells beach where you can do a spot of beachcombing! “The name is perfect for the location, and we’re always combing through, looking for finds from brands old and new to share with our customers!”

The light and airy shop channels the coastal vibe, all white and woods, and showcases a fine collection of high-quality clothing for coastal, country, and equestrian pursuits (so regulars will find old favourites too), with brands including Ariat, Barbour, Dubarry, Lazy Jacks, Fjällräven, and Schoffel.

There are colourful tops and hoodies (including some sporting funky Wells prints) from Lazy Jacks for men, women and children; bright prints and nautical stripes from Seasalt; logo t-shirts and waterproof coats from Barbour; bright and practical casual wear from Ariat, Gore-tex boots from Dubarry and cozy fleeces, shirts and coats from Schoffel!

Come in and see us for friendly service and advice, as well as some fantastic deals!

My wife and myself love shopping at Christopher Williams Country Store as we occasionally like to treat ourselves buying quality country clothing and accessories. Am always impressed with the variety of stock they hold. From what I have seen they appear to have all the top brands from the UK and Europe. Can highly recommend if you want top quality goods and personal friendly service. Creake Abbey where one of the shops is situated has other attractions making our visit more enjoyable.

I've visited this shop many times over the years and purchased many items. It's a fantastic shop selling great quality clothing. The proprietors are impressively knowledgeable, incredibly friendly, and always patient and willing to help. Top quality clothes, every type of useful outdoor gift you could invent, and great advice, and the prices are very competitive. This is my default go-to for country clothing and a mandatory stopping point for every trip to Norfolk. Highly recommended.
