Holly Cottage Reviews

Karen
Its a fantastic cottage in a great location
Julie
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.
Amelia
This was our second time staying at Holly Cottage and it was just as good the second time as it was the first. Everything is so high quality and there are so many thoughtful extras. A perfect base in the centre of Holt.
Kerry
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. I would have no hesitation recommending HolRead morely Cottage and will also look in the future to other holiday lets through Original Cottages if this is the level of quality they manage. Hide
Michele
Lovely house with everything that we needed in a great location that was surprisingly quiet. We would definitely return.
Alison
A really lovely cottage in a great location.
Kate
Our second visit to Holly Cottage and it was just as amazing as the first. The cottage is beautiful and so well equipped. The location is amazing too. Just a shame it is being taken off the books in August. Hopefully the new owners will continue to rent it out!
Sarah
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.
Joanne
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.
Josephine
An excellent place to stay. Very clean well equipped and although in the centre of holt it was quiet and exceptionally private. The private enclosed garden with the hot tub made for a perfect holiday.
Roseann
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.
Richard
Lovely house, great location, couldn't fault it. Helpful & flexible approach to allow us to change booking dates.
Julie
Fabulous cottage, great location in centre of Holt. Beautifully furnished, lovely enclosed courtyard with hot tub. Comfortable, cosy and would definitely stay again.
Jane
Delightful cottage with excellent furnishings, beds super comfy and the cottage was immaculate. Kitchen very well stocked with cutlery and crockery. Easy location within Holt. Thoroughly recommend.
Mark
Fantastic cottage in a great location and well equipped. We had an excellent week. We will be back next year hopefully.
Kathleen
This is a very well appointed cottage with very good quality furnishings. The cottage is cosy and warm and the beds are extremely comfortable . Our visit was at Christmas time and we were delighted that there was a lovely Christmas tree and lots of other very tasteful decorations throughout. There are even Christmas lights on the outside of the proRead moreperty. Holly Cottage is in a perfect location in Holt with onsite parking and is in a central location to visit the surrounding area. One of the best self catering accommodations we have ever stayed in. Hide

We absolutely loved it - my wife thought she was in the film 'The Holiday' - apart from the fact I'm no Jude Law lookalike!

We have had the most fantastic break in Holly Cottage and Holt. The cottage is superb, so well equipped and so clean. and we were delighted to arrive and find Christmas decorations up. What a lovely touch. The welcome pack was also gorgeous and thoughtfully put together, with little festive touches of mince pies and mulled wine, and especially the Read moredog treats! Holt and the surroundings area was lovely to explore with so many beautiful independent shops Hide

A wonderful cottage in a quiet cul de sac in the heart of Holt. We had a lovely break with our daughters, partners and our two dogs, celebrating my wifes birthday.

Absolutely fabulous cottage. Very clean and very comfortable and had everything we needed. We loved the fire, which was so warm, and the hot tub too, which we were able to use every day. There was a welcome hamper that had lots of lovely items in it, not just tea and milk. There was even a bottle of prosecco for my husbands birthday. We had a lovRead moreely long weekend and will definitely book to stay here again. Oh, and only a 1 minute walk to pubs and restaurants, what could be better. We loved it! Hide

Please note that some of these activities and days out are paid and it's always a good idea to book in advance to secure your place where applicable.

Found a special day out near your cottage? Please let us know and we'll add it so that other visitors can enjoy it too!
Pensthorpe Nature Reserve & Gardens - NR21 0LN
about 18 Miles
if you and your family are interested in nature and wildlife then Pensthorpe Nature Reserve & Gardens is the perfect place for a day out. This beautiful area of national parkland is home to a huge range of common and rare birds from sparrows to Red Crowned Cranes and also has a red squirrel enclosure - part of a conservation programme and now home to a family of adorable squirrels. Other activities to enjoy at Pensthorpe include pond dipping and Landrover discovery tours. Pensthorpe also played host to BBC'S Springwatch in 2010.
Melsop Farm Park - NR20 3DT
about 23 Miles
We love this attraction in Scoulton, Norfolk with a great collection of animals.  Children and adults alike have the chance to get hands on with the animals in the special handling areas.  On rainy days there is always the indoor play area for the little ones and when it's time for a bite to eat the cafe on the farm is open all day selling drinks and snacks.  Hot food is available over lunch times.
Bishops Boats Seal Trips - NR23 1RY
about 26 Miles
This is a really unique attraction running daily seal watching trips from the middle of March right through to the end of October.  The experienced skippers will lead you out on one of the traditional wooden boats where you will have the chance to see both common and grey seals.  If you love animals then this is one attraction not to be missed! They also do some boat trips combined with guides on dry land such as seal watching combined with a visit to Blakeney Point Nature Reserve, owned by the National Trust.  We think this attraction is excellent value for money as they keep their admission prices low.
Natureland Seal Sanctuary - PE25 1DB
about 27 Miles
Awarded the Lincolnshire Family Attraction of the Year award in recent years this fun day out is recommended. You can see seals and penguins, as well as other animals in the popular pets corner.  Feeding time for the seals and penguins is the real highlight of the day. Entertainment, education and conservation are the main aims of this attraction. Natureland's work with abandoned baby seals has become known worldwide and it's carefully researched rearing and treatment program is now used by many other rescue centres.
Dinosaur Adventure Park - NR9 5JW
about 27 Miles
This fun family day out has been well planned and we think is certainly worth a visit.  New for 2010 is the PrimEvil at Dinosaur Adventure.  Other fun activities include the Dinosaur Trail, Arachnophobia, the Raptor Races and the adventure play area.  The secret animal garden is also popular.  You can play a role in wildlife conservation and sponsor an animal if you wish.  At the moment if you sign up for their newsletter there is a chance to win a family ticket.
