Escape to this spacious brick and flint cottage, within 1 mile of the centre of Holt – an attractive market town on the edge of the Norfolk Coast National Landscape. Ideal for couples or small families, this light and airy cottage features a relaxing lounge, a stylish kitchen/diner, and an enclosed garden with a feature patio area. The ideal base for exploring stunning shorelines and countryside, the cottage enjoys easy access to Holt Country Park and Sheringham Park.

The deceptively large two-storey cottage is set within a row of similarly styled cottages that overlook a quiet road leading into the centre of Holt. The cottage’s interior is fresh and full of natural light which falls onto practically arranged rooms, home to contemporary soft furnishings. The large lounge at the front of the cottage has comfortable seating arranged around a wood burner and is only a few steps from an attractive kitchen/diner that leads towards the rear garden. There are two bedrooms upstairs: a cosy double with an ornamental fireplace and a twin bedroom with plenty of storage space. A shower room stands across the landing. The enclosed rear garden has a feature patio with seating and is dissected by a long path leading to a storage shed at the far end.

The centre of Holt (within 1 mile) offers an impressive array of family-friendly shops, pubs and eateries in and around its thriving market square. Nearby Holt Country Park offers 100 acres of woodland and, just like the Norfolk Coast Path (4 miles), is a haven for walkers and nature lovers. The Norfolk Coast National Landscape is bursting with nature reserves such as Blakeney (7.5 miles), along with coastal towns including Wells-next-the-Sea and Sheringham, the home of Sheringham Park (within 11.5 miles).

The cottage is warm and comfortable with a large kitchen and sitting room. There is parking in the drive and it is an easy walk into Holt.

Lovely, comfortable cottage in a safe, residential area only ten minutes walk from the interesting town of Holt. We did the Owl trail through Holt town on our first day which was great! We discovered the history of the town, the architecture, great places to eat & drink as well as some beautiful boutiques & art galleries. We used trains & buses durRead moreing our stay which were very easy & convenient. The Holt steam railway is also only a 15 min walk from the cottage which runs into Sherringham. Hide

Cottage in good location for exploring the Norfolk coast, but feels it does require some improvements ie. decoration, Large oven not working, TV kept loosing signal, Garden requires attention not very inviting to sit outside. . Nice welcome pack thank you.

The cottage was well presented with lovely artwork, soft furnishings, a shelf of books, etc. The rooms all have high ceilings and there's a modern, large kitchen. However, the property needs redecorating and the garden needs attention. It was not a pleasure to sit in as it lacked any sense of being cared for and the garden furniture was shabby, andRead more there was no parasol to shade ourselves from the sun. We had problems with the TV reception, also. There was a generous welcome pack of goodies. Hide

The kitchen is a bit sparse & the washing machine needs replacing because it does not work properly. It is a pity the outdoor space is so boring, I think a bit more should be made of this space with some colour added. Apart from this it is a sweet little place, although is does require some TLC

A very comfortable, light and airy cottage in a good place to walk into Holt or to drive out elsewhere. Kitchen equipment is a bit limited, and the garden is not very cheerful, but otherwise a very pleasant place to stay.

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful cottage. The place was spotless and welcoming on arrival. We were delighted with the Christmas tree and welcome food pack. The cottage owners paid great attention to detail with the pretty decorations and snug furnishings.

Great location. Parking a bonus. Welcome pack appreciated. Could be terrific but as per previous reviews the cleaning is an issue. Dust on blinds, cobwebs, dirt round taps etc, A few improvements would make a huge difference. A lick of paint would help too and a quick de- weeding of the garden. Nothing major but a few improvements would put this prRead moreoperty in a different league Hide
