Situated in the charming town of Holt, this modern yet cosy cottage is the perfect setting for a family holiday at the coast. Inside, there’s a welcoming living space with timber beams, exposed brickwork and original floorboards. Spend slow-start mornings curled up on a plush armchair with a cup of coffee before heading into the farmhouse-chic kitchen for a tasty breakfast spread. If the weather’s on your side, take your plates out to the bistro set in the private courtyard. Afternoons are for exploring the surrounding countryside and nearby seaside towns. Enjoy strolling through Holt Country Park, a twenty-minute walk away, or jump in the car and take the fifteen-minute drive to Sheringham. Pick your way across the pebbles of Sheringham Beach then fill up on fish and chips in a highly-rated eatery. Head home in the evening, windswept and salty-haired, for a cup of Earl Grey and a chunk of Norfolk shortcake in front of the crackling wood-burning stove.
