Enjoy a stay in this charming family-friendly 1820s property, situated in the vibrant market town of Holt where fine art galleries, interesting museums and independent shops are plentiful. The cottage itself is full of character and offers fantastic places to socialise whatever the weather, including a pretty conservatory and a courtyard garden.

At the heart of the home is a calming living room filled with comfortable seating and soothing neutral colours where the whole family can gather to relax. The wood burner-effect electric fire is a lovely addition to the space, creating a cosy atmosphere, particularly during the colder months of the year. Next door, the kitchen retains much of its original charm with an exposed local flint feature wall and a traditional farmhouse-style dining table, whilst the modern fixtures and fittings have been carefully considered to create balance within the room. When you need a little peace and quiet, the conservatory offers solace in the light, bright extension to sit and enjoy your morning coffee. Also conveniently located on the ground floor is the bathroom, boasting a bathtub and a separate shower cubicle. Upstairs on the first floor, there are two chic double bedrooms, one with an iron frame and the other with a wooden frame, both offering plenty of storage for you to make yourself at home. The final bedroom is a full twin room which is perfect for adults or children alike. Finally, a WC completes the floor. Step outside and you’ll find the garden area where you can light the BBQ and cook up a feast al fresco, an evening activity sure to please all ages. One of the real bonuses of this property is the onsite parking at the front of the house.

Just a mile away, Holt Country Park has an enchanting 100 acres of tranquil woodland with plenty of trails of varying lengths to follow through the wildlife-rich landscapes. Take a trip to the seaside and visit the nostalgic destination of Cromer (10 miles). Here, you can indulge in tasty Cromer crabs, spend a day soaking up the atmosphere on the sand or take a walk along the Norfolk Coast Path; there are endless hours of fun to be had in the area. Another wonderful location for families on the coast is Wells-next-the-Sea (12 miles) where you can hire a beach hut for the day or head off on a harbour tour to explore the shore.

We had a really great holiday at Archies. The location in Holt is ideal for the local shops, cafes and bars. The house is warm and accommodating with well laid out features such as the conservatory as well as a good inventory of equipment for the rooms. Would definitely stay again.

Comfortable, clean and well equipped house and kitchen, good beds and storage in bedrooms. Cosy little conservatory with four comfy chairs was a bonus. Archie's is in the perfect location, just a short walk to many independent local shops and fish and chip shops.

The cottage is in a wonderful location for exploring the North Norfolk coast and felt like a home during our stay. The layout of the cottage is perfect and there is ample space for six adults.

Lovely cottage in a fantastic location, just a very short, flat walk from the town centre. The cottage had everything we needed for our stay. Very comfortable and well equipped. Lovely little courtyard garden. Thoroughly recommended.

The cottage is in a great position so that you can walk to Holt's amenities and a few miles from the coast and other attractions. It is very well equipped and we would love to stay again in the future, the only consideration is for guests who may be less mobile is that the stairs are very steep and narrow.

A repeat visit to Archies, and we had a lovely time again. The cottage is really well located, in a quiet position but very close to the High Street. Parking space is a huge asset. A lovely welcome tray including chocolates and a bottle of fizz - very much appreciated and made us smile. The cottage is very well maintained and is clearly well lovedRead more, the owners take a lot of pride in ensuring the cottage is welcoming and somewhere guests will want to return to. We would happily stay again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others. Hide
