  • Sympathetically renovated cottage boasting original period features with modern styling
  • Original exposed wooden beams and exposed brickwork throughout
  • Relax in the spacious hot tub in the private enclosed garden

Property code: OC-2150

Enjoying a sought-after position in the Georgian town of Holt, bring together six friends or family to explore the best of Norfolk, whatever the weather. Relax in the private hot tub while away the hours in the enclosed garden or warm your toes in front of the fire.

Follow the steps up to the house and let yourselves into the stunning open-plan living room/diner. Take in the original character of the exposed brickwork and ceiling beams as you relax on the comfy sofas and pop a film on the TV. Your head chef will certainly enjoy the mod cons of the contemporary kitchen and sip on a coffee from the handy Tassimo machine as they go. Come together for bountiful meals around the elegantly laid table, and chat well into the night, highlighting the best bits about your day. The night doesn't end there, though. A dip in the hot tub is the perfect way to savour the last moments with your guests before deciding on one of the three tastefully decorated bedrooms; a twin room and two king-size bedrooms. The enclosed garden space is an idyllic start to any morning. Spend lazy mornings lounging in the meticulously landscaped grounds, perhaps under the shade of a mature tree, or cooking up fanciful breakfasts on the helpful BBQ.

Holt (less than 1 mile away) is an eclectic Georgian town with boutique shops, antique shops, traditional village pubs and plenty of restaurants to take your fancy. Stock up with ingredients from the tucked-away shops in the charming courtyards, or head to one of the department stores. A stay in Holt would only be complete with a visit to the woodland wonderland walks of Holt Country Park (less than 1 mile away). 7 miles away in the car takes you to Morston Quay, where a ferry ride can take you over to Blakeney Harbour, where you can spot a colony of grey seals along the way.

  • 3 bedrooms – 1 twin bedroom and 2 king-size bedrooms
  • 2 bathrooms – 1 small downstairs bathroom with small bath, walk-in shower and WC and 1 upstairs bathroom with shower and WC

Lovely cottage, nicely furnished, really loved the decor and, overall, well appointed. Perhaps a bit short on clothes shortage which is worth bearing in mind when packing although we are not 'capsule' people!! Excellent size for four perhaps a little compact for 6. Fantastic location for thoroughly enjoying the town and spending money. Not far froRead morem any number of beautiful houses and gardens plus beaches. Not as easy to find as the directions would suggest but worth every minute when you get there. Hide

We had a lovely stay at Holly Cottage. It was in a great central location right in the heart of Holt but it was surprisingly really quiet. The cottage was immaculately clean and well furnished and equipped with all your home comforts. The bed was so comfortable and had luxury bedding and towels. We would definitely like to return.

A lovely cottage in a central location complete with parking space is a rare find in Holt. But Holly Cottage has all three! Overlayed with what I think was the first prolonged period of sunshine since Xmas was the icing on the cake! One word of caution! We are both able bodied but even so found the staircase to be particularly steep with not soRead more wide treads. Please bear in mind if youre thinking of booking! Hide

We all absolutely loved the cottage. It was cosy, comfortable and in a perfect location for shops and restaurants. We made good use of the woodburner and the hot-tub. All the facilities were easy to operate and great kitchen utensils. The welcome basket was also a lovely touch and appreciated.

A lovely cottage in the centre of Holt with parking. Very central for the coast and the Thursford Christmas show if visiting in winter. It was a very wet, windy and cold weekend for us but the cottage is very cosy and warm. We plan to visit again (this was our second time at Christmas) in the summer to take advantage of the outdoor facilities.

We stayed at Holly Cottage for one week in August 2024 and were very impressed with the cottage quality and it's central location. The comfort and style of the place were 10/10, but the thoughtfulness of small added extras (like having a couple of pints of milk in the fridge) made it all the more special.

We thought the cottage was absolutely superb. Clean, all the home comforts you could wish for and close to everything. We have stayed in many, many rentals over a 20 year period, all over the world. This was by far the best. We were actually looking to rebook for next year but were sad to hear that it's being discontinued.

A gorgeous cottage in a perfect location . Having parking in a busy little town like Holt is a real bonus and the garden , a perfect place to relax after a busy morning. One thing worth mentioning is that the stairs are steep and the treads very shallow making them a little difficult to navigate. We would happily recommend this lovely property.
