This beautifully appointed cottage in the charming Georgian town of Holt is ideal for couples looking for a restful holiday in the countryside while still being close to the Norfolk coastline. Holt is a great choice for foodies with plenty of eateries using the best local ingredients. Holt Country Park, with over 100 acres of woodland to discover, is less than a mile away. For a lazy day, hop aboard the North Norfolk Railway (1.5 miles) and take The Poppy Line to Weybourne and Sheringham.

This charming property set over two floors has been lovingly designed and stylishly decorated while retaining plenty of the original cottage features, including exposed brickwork where the original fireplaces stood. The open-plan living area offers a snug sofa set in front of a cosy wood burner for romantic evenings watching your favourite films on the Smart TV. A compact contemporary kitchen has all you need to prepare some memorable meals from the best local produce. After a busy day exploring, you can retire to the first floor, where you’ll find a king-size bedroom and a shower room. Outside, the private suntrap courtyard with a bistro set is ideal for soaking up the last of the evening sun with a cool drink and a good book.

You are just a short drive to the must-see attractions of the stunning North Norfolk coast, where you can discover bird watching, nature reserves, enchanting coastal and inland villages, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, sailing, seal watching and vast sandy beaches. The coastal villages of Blakeney for seal trips and Cley for bird watching are just five miles away, and the beautiful Salthouse Beach is four miles. A little further along the coast road is the current home of the Earl of Leicester, Holkham Hall (14.5 miles), which hosts numerous events throughout the year.

Port 1 was a lovely cosy, comfy, cottage in the heart of the town with the added bonus of a car parking space. The cottage is compact but ideal for 2 guests and has all the facilities you require be it for 2 nights or 7 nights., an ideal base to explore Holt and all the other lovely North Norfolk Towns and Villages.

We had an amazing stay at 1 Port - the cottage is very well laid out and every item you may need has been thought of by the owners. The quality of the property and its contents are fantastic and the location is first rate for exploring the wonderful town of Holt. We felt very comfortable and relaxed during our stay and would recommend this propertyRead more to anyone coming to stay in the area. Hide

The cottage is in an excellent position and was a lovely place to stay. Unfortunately the heating wasnt on when we arrived on a December day and the house was freezing. If I stayed there again I would check with Norfolk Cottages that the heating would be on when we arrived.

The reason we scored cleanliness low was because the cottage had lots of dog hairs all over front and back door mats, hair all up the metalwork of the stairs. The venetian blinds were covered in dust, and lot of cobwebs everywhere. The WORST BIT was the bed absolutely stunk....VERY MUSTY, it was like the bed linen hadn't been dried properly from beRead moreing laundered. You woke up smelling of it....!! I would recommend that a Private No Parking sign was put up on the side of the cottage as we had problem with other cars Parking on the driveway. The fridge was very noisy it kept you awake at night. Hope most of these comments are a one of problem.... as the cottage is lovely little gem in a lovely town. I don't usually complain but felt these issues had to be mentioned. Hide

Generally good to v good, but we did take up the issue of how the bins were dealt with at your local office ( completely full when arrived, even though bin men should have collected the day before ) but we received no response. This should be addressed in an update to the owners welcome information . . It needs to be clear if bins are to be put outRead moreside ( presumably?) rather than suggesting bin people go hunting for them in garage . Could have been v smelly in the summer !!!!! Hide

1 Port was an excellent base for our holiday - very well situated in the centre of Holt, with its own parking space. The cottage was very well furnished with everything you would need, everything was in excellent condition and overall we (myself and my dog) had a fantastic week.
