We really enjoyed Nichols Barn. The housekeeping and cleaning was immaculate almost as if we were the first guests there. The bed linen and beds were comfy and the showers and baths were very relaxing. The kitchen was a delight, with quality modern appliances and well stocked cutlery and utensils. It was easy to cook and keep clean. The living areaRead more was perfect- we liked the long sofa. The original wooden beams are evident throughout and add to the barns character. Pat was an attentive and cheerful host. The location, bordering on farmland with bridleways was ideal for an evening walk. The ruins of the castle are spectacular- quite unbelievable to think it was just 10 minutes walk from the barn. We would stay here again without hesitation. Hide

Excellent five star property. The location is peaceful and pretty gardens with each of the six properties. If you don't mind a short drive to the seafront it is ideal.

A beautiful, warm, comfortable cottage. I wanted to bring it home with me. Can recommend this cottage if you want a relaxed, chilled break in the best of surroundings. Very close to Holt, and little distance to lots of interesting places in North Norfolk.
