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. Only one parking space is a bit restrictive for a 6 bRead moreed property but the public car park was close by and cost 8.50 for 24hrs. Hide

Holly Cottage is top quality in regards the property itself and it's location in Holt, really excellent. Great indoor space with everything you require and an excellent outdoor space with a great hot tub! It's ideally located for Holt itself and the wider North Norfolk area. We'd definitely stay again.

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.

What a wonderful cottage. We stayed for a week and spent quite a lot of time lounging around! We never made the hot tub but we will next time! The kitchen was the best equipped kitchen. You want for nothing...apart from a chef! We celebrated 3 birthdays there and it was such a great place to do this. Nothing to do with the cottage but the greengrRead moreocer at the end did not warn me( and he could have done) that my car would hit a stone sticking out from his shop that was not visible to the 4 of us in the car. I don't think he's fond of tourists! So just beware of that. We would highly recommend this cottage and are hoping to book it again for the fourth person's birthday! Hide

Definitely 5 star, location, location, location. The cottage has everything you need and more, the welcome hamper was amazing and the proximity to Holts Georgian town is a plus. We had an amazing stay and would love to return, be aware that the stairs are steep if you have mobility issues, there is though the option to sleep downstairs.

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.

We had a fabulous time. Cottage is perfect, Holt charming and Norfolk divine. The owners have wonderful taste, and even had a resident blackbird nesting in the laurel. Watching from their hot tub, (plastic) glass of wine in hand, the comings and goings of Cyril and partner, made our holiday. A huge thank you for everything.
