The Lord Nelson

The Lord Nelson is a classic village pub in Burnham Thorpe, just a few miles inland from Wells-next-the-Sea, where dogs are welcome inside. With a fire for chilly days and table seating for locals and coast visitors alike, it's the kind of pub that works whatever the weather or mud level—muddy boots and sandy paws are all part of the deal.

The pub serves food and keeps things straightforward and friendly, making it a useful stop if you're exploring the North Norfolk inland villages or breaking up the journey between the coast and the countryside. Dogs can settle beside you while you eat or drink and the atmosphere is easy-going.

It's a handy detour from Wells if you're combining a village walk with a proper pub lunch and there's village roadside parking nearby. The Lord Nelson fits neatly into a coast-and-country dog day without fuss.
