Acceptable warmth. Bed like a marshmallow, which is not my preference. Also a bit of an odd smell in bedroom.

Not suitable for elderly due to steep steps. No parking of any size, on road only one hour during the day. Cottage well supplied with equipment and nicely furnished.

This is a lovely cottage in a good location. The stairs are extremely steep, but there are sturdy banisters on either side if you have any mobility difficulties. Parking (always a bonus in Holt) is tight but achievable with a small to medium sized car. We had a minor problem with a leaky pipe in the bathroom, but both the rental agency and the housRead moree owner were very quick and effective in getting the problem sorted out within a few hours.

Cottage is in very good location and well equipped for a weeks stay. Plenty of hot water. Highly recommend Owl Tearoom for breakfast and light snacks. Also Byfords was really good too. Holt is a very friendly town and would be happy to return.
