Overview
Property code: 79034

This wonderfully presented property is set in the beautiful, historic Georgian town of Holt and provides a family with the ideal base in which to explore the north Norfolk coastline and countryside.

Sleeping eight guests in four bedrooms, this beautiful holiday home is set in the Georgian market town of Holt. It’s the perfect retreat for families or friends who enjoy historic towns and villages with the coast and countryside on the doorstep. There’s ample space for everyone to enjoy this grand house with spacious interiors and beautiful furnishings. Holt is an 18th-century town which rose from the ashes after it was burnt to the ground in 1708. Today, you can enjoy its fascinating array of shops, cafes and galleries with some gracing the main street and others an adventure through a warren of side lanes and yards where you’ll be inspired to find original gifts and beautiful treasures to take home.

 

Step into the pillared porch and step into the grand hallway of this grand retreat where you’ll find stylish interiors and superb furnishings, all thoughtfully designed for a very comfortable stay. Rustle up tasty meals in the spacious and well-equipped kitchen and dining area. Whisk sandy clothes back to new with the utility room washing machine and tumble dryer. Catch up on the day in the living room with a Smart TV, large sofas and armchairs, and a toasty wood burner; or curl up for quieter chats or storytime in the cosy snug with a Smart TV. There’s a handy WC and boot room off the hallway too. When night falls, head upstairs where you’ll find four spacious bedrooms: two king-size, one double, and one twin, including two en-suite shower rooms and a family bathroom. Throw open the French doors in the kitchen to the walled landscaped garden where you can enjoy morning coffees or unwind or enjoy BBQ feasts together on warmer days. There’s a rotating garden pod so you’ll never miss the sun! Off-road parking is available for four cars and you’ll find a pub and shops within walking distance, with the beach just 5 miles away.
