Holt is a small, award winning country town serving the surrounding villages. There are ample pubs, restaurants and surprisingly stylish shops abound. Holt is only 4 miles from the coast at Cley-Next-The-Sea and Blakeney with the seaside resorts of Sheringham and Cromer less than 10 miles away. It is ideally situated for walking, bird watching, horse riding or sightseeing. You can take the ‘Holt Flyer’ - the Routemaster double-decker bus that carries you to the station to catch the steam train across the heath and coast to Sheringham. Alternatively, take a boat trip to see the seals at Blakeney. Don’t forget to buy some mussels or crab for your tea!

The excellent, safe garden makes it an ideal cottage for families, and both children and smokers are accepted, but sorry, no pets. Weekends and Short Breaks available between October and May.
