Well Cottage is a short walk from the centre of the Georgian market town of Holt with its selection of galleries, restaurants and independent shops. Surrounded by the rolling countryside of the Holt ridge, it is an ideal place to explore and is great for cycling, walking and birdwatching. The coast is only five miles away and the choice is quite diverse from the sandy beaches of Cromer and Sheringham to the shingle of Salthouse and the marshes of Blakeney and Cley. Holt is a pretty market town located on the north west point of the Holt-Cromer ridge. It’s 23 miles north of Norwich, 35 miles east of King’s Lynn and 9.5 miles west of Cromer. The town has its own unique character and charm. It’s very popular with tourists and locals alike. Photographers, hikers, cyclists, tourists, families and artists are drawn to the town because there’s so much to see and do. Visitors enjoy browsing the shops, art galleries, bookshops, antique emporiums and exclusive boutiques. There’s the annual summer arts festival in July and the town’s Christmas Lights from late November. Holt has something for everyone to enjoy. History Holt is an historical town that dates back to Roman times with Peacock Lane forming part of an ancient Roman road starting from the coastal town of Salthouse. Roman remains have been unearthed in the north of the town. The name Holt has its origins in the Anglo-Saxon word for ‘wood’. This elegant town is included in William The Conqueror’s Doomsday Book of 1086; the entry describes Holt as a market town with a port (referring to nearby Cley-next-the-Sea). Back then, Holt had several watermills and was described as ‘a thriving town’. It remains so, to this day. Since the year 1080 onwards local traders from all over this part of Norfolk flocked to the market place in the centre of Holt to trade with one another. The market was an important part of the lives of the town’s residents until the 1960’s when the market was no longer thriving and unfortunately closed down. Recently, there have been calls to resurrect the market; indeed there have been several surveys and plans to do this but none have been successful yet. The Great Fire On 1st May 1708 the town suffered a devastating fire. Sadly the fire destroyed the majority of the town in barely 3 hours. The fire started at ‘Shirehall Plain’ and rapidly spread throughout the entire market town, engulfing the timber houses. The fire was very fast and extremely violent, causing thousands of pounds worth of damage. Sympathy for the town’s folk of Holt was spread far and wide across the country, with many people from all over the land offering help and donations to rebuild the devastated town. Georgian Holt The hard working people of Holt rebuilt their town with stone, flint and brick. Many stylish Georgian buildings were constructed to replace the medieval ones. The church of St Andrew’s which was very badly damaged in the fire (it’s thatched chancel was totally destroyed) was repaired in sympathy to its original Norman design. Holt has had an eventful past and visitors to the town can see a variety of different types of architecture as a result. There are grand Georgian buildings. The town’s charming back lanes and yards are mostly from the Victorian era. They offer visitors the opportunity to discover unusual quaint shops and offices that are nestled away from the high street. Holt has lots of ‘hidden gems’ to catch your eye! Today’s popular opinion is that if the fire had not destroyed the town, then Holt would probably look similar to Lavenham in Suffolk. Byfords The town of Holt is a fun place to visit with lots of exciting places to discover and enjoy. One of the most popular places to go to is Byfords cafe, restaurant and B&B. Here you’ll find a wonderful delicatessen, café, restaurant and B&B. It has a relaxed atmosphere and serves tasty locally sourced produce. Their deli has a fine selection of olive oils, cheeses, meats, olives, plus there’s a large selection of ‘high quality’ frozen ready meals, frozen breads and pastries. There’s a salad bar with lots to choose from for a speedy take away lunch, fresh bread, pastries, cakes, coffees, teas and ice-creams too! You can find Byfords in what is believed to be the oldest house in Holt (their cellar dates back to 15th Century). The building survived the Great Fire of 1708 and a subsequent fire in 1906. For over 100 years the building belonged to the Byford family – back then it was a hardware store and ironmongers. And many more… There’s no shortage of other great cafés and restaurants in town including The Kings Head, The Feathers, The Lawns, Number 28 (High Street), The Barn Café-Bistro (in the Appleyard), Horatio Mugs and The Owl Tea Rooms. Holt Country Park Surrounding the town of Holt are 100 acres of beautiful woods and heathland. The Holt Country Park which is located just a short distance from town used to be a venue for horse racing, where members of the aristocracy competed against one for the ‘Town Plate.’ Now it’s a mixture of heath, farmland, forestry and tranquil woodland. The majority of the trees here are Scots Pine, Oak and Silver Birch. This sustainable woodland is also a haven for wildlife where you’ll find a diverse mix of flora and fauna. If you’re lucky you may spot the deer which roam free. As the park’s only a short distance from the town centre it’s very popular with families. The Holt Country Park is managed by the North Norfolk District Council (NNDC) and during the holidays there are often cultural and environmental events to enjoy. There are two car parks – a small fee applies in the main car park (off the Norwich Road), whilst there’s a free car park (but no facilities) on the other side of the park (Baconsthorpe Road). The Holt Country Park has lots of different trails to follow (some are wide and suitable for pushchairs or wheelchairs), a tall viewing platform, a visitor centre, children’s play park, picnic areas and toilets. For those of you that love a challenge, there are lots of orienteering posts to search for. The Holt Lowes Holt’s second green space, The Holt Lowes, is a strip of land which lies adjacent to the Holt Country Park (on the south side). The Lowes are mainly heathland and cover approximately 120 acres. Historically, the land was given over to the poor folk of the town where they were able to graze their cattle and fetch gorse and wood. During ‘The Great War’, The Lowes were used for military training; today, it’s open to the public to enjoy. For wildlife, this area is vital and records going back to the 1700’s reflect this. In 1954 the area was declared a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI); since the 1980’s The Lowes have been run by the Norfolk Wildlife Trust who have carefully managed the site to prevent the encroachment of trees. Plants include the carnivorous Great Sundew(Drosera anglica) and Black Bog-rush (Schoenus nigricans). Many different species of dragonfly including the rare Keeled Skinner thrive here. Spout Hills The last of Holt’s open spaces is ‘Spout Hills’ which is approximately 14 acres and can be found to the west of the town. It’s often overlooked but it’s definitely worth a visit, especially on a fine summer’s day. It’s a great spot for a picnic (you can easily stock up in town with some goodies first). There are several footpaths which lead to Spout Hills and it’s only a few minutes walk away from the town centre. Just ask a local to point you in the right direction! Many years ago Spout Hills supplied Holt with water. The old, disused reservoir still exists but the pumping station was dismantled during the 1950’s. During more recent times a committee has been working hard to try to conserve and restore the area so that we can enjoy it for many years to come. Work undertaken includes managing the woodlands (which have overgrown since the reservoir was decommissioned) and keeping the pastures clear, by removing scrub. Holt Festival Each summer Holt hosts its own Summer Arts Festival that runs during the 3rd week of July (immediately after the schools break up for their summer holidays). It’s a popular event that attracts many visitors to the town and it showcases the strong artistic tradition the town and the surrounding area inspires. Previously the Holt Festival has hosted performances and talks from Sir John Hurt, Stephen Fry, Michael Palin, Sandi Toksvig, Michael Buerk, Germaine Greer, Roy Hattersley and David Starkey. Musical artists have included The Stranglers, The Proclaimers, 10cc and Elkie Brooks. Holt Christmas Lights Late November is when the town of Holt switches on its Christmas Lights with a grand ‘switch on’ event. There are usually street performers. You can browse local shops and enjoy some hot food. A glass of mulled wine is never too far away. To celebrate the Christmas lights switch on there’s a flurry of fireworks marking the moment with a bang. Holt is enchanting during this time of year as the Georgian town is decorated in beautiful, twinkling white Christmas lights. During December the majority of shops are open 7 days a week – even more time to enjoy the magic . ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car recommended - Limited on-site parking (max 1 space) ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Stereo - TV ### Outdoor areas - Fenced yard - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a village - In the city centre - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near the sea - Next to a golf course ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27180000/27173600/27173588/b35753ad.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Very Cosy Comfy Cottage, 150yds from Holt centre with free Parking!

Lots of info on restaurants and places to visit nearby. A nice complimentary bottle of wine which was a nice little treat. Parking space was fine for our ford eco sport, could see it being a bit tight on some larger vehicles. Thanks for a lovely stay. ##### Abigail A.

Cottage was very clean with comfortable beds, enough space for all of us. Well stocked kitchen with all the mod cons. It was also great having 2 full bathrooms. We struggled a little with the parking space - it was quite tight for a big car particularly when someone parks directly opposite. That said, there is a public car park just round the corner which was cheap (free after 18:00) and overpayment ran through to next morning from 08:00 onwards and even better, had 6 EV parking bays. Holt is a lovely little town with lots of unique and boutique stores, pubs and restaurants. Close to Cromer and Sheringham - def worth doing a day trip on the North Norfolk Rail - from Holt to Sherifham by steam train. ##### Andrew A.

Couldn’t be more convenient, with its own off street parking too. Cottage was clean and had everything we needed. It was smaller than we were expecting from the description and this caused some issues with sleeping arrangements and having to be quiet and have lights off downstairs as soon as kids went to bed. The kitchen is functional but a bit tatty round the edges. Needs a new frying pan with a flat bottom to rest on the flat electric hob! These are minor niggles, we still had a fab time. I was just hoping for a bit more of the money, but appreciate that it was a last minute booking. ##### James N.

Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### GARY F. 11 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### short stay at Well Cottage We were looking for accommodation for a short stay near the N.Norfolk coast, and know Holt from previous visits. Well Cottage was ideally placed within walking distance of all the shops, cafes and restaurants. Parking onsite was a bonus, although space is tight. There is also on-road parking from 6pm until 8am, and then a further1 hour before you have to move. The cottage has everything you need, including 2 bathrooms, but do be careful of the low beams on the stairs if you are tall. The coffee shop next door was a real little gem as well. ##### GARY F.

Being an older period property, there are a couple of features which could be either pluses or minuses, depending on your outlook and the size and age of your party – the steep and narrow stairs and low ceilings are either charming or hazardous, for example. I think we'd also take slight issue with the description of it being suitable for 5 adults – there were 4 adults and a child in our party, and it was a bit of a squeeze at breakfast. But it would be \*perfect\* for a family of 2/3 adults, 3/2 kids (there's also a cot, if required). But the positives more than out-weigh these niggles – the cottage doesn't want for anything in terms of equipment, and the beds were comfy. It was a chilly August so we put the heating on a couple of times and the cottage warmed up really quickly. Also, it was appreciated that there was a plentiful supply of things like dishwasher and washing machine tablets. Chris, the owner, couldn't have been more helpful in his communications. And the cafe, Cross St Union, immediately next door, does the best coffee in a town not short of beverage opportunities. Would definitely come back, if Chris would have us! ##### John A. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lisa L. 17 Jul 2021 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location in a lovely Georgian town Well cottage is in a great location in the centre of Holt. You are minutes from everything but it still feels quiet and secluded. The living room is small but adequate but would benefit greatly from having a larger more comfortable sofa for guests to relax. The kitchen was well equipped and felt like the newest edition to the cottage. The double bedroom was the most spacious and brightest of the rooms in the cottage. The bed was comfortable but the curtains were unlined so we were woken very early by the light (my tip would be to take eye masks). I did mention this to Chris who said he would be addressing this later in the year. I recommend the little coffee shop next door for a handy breakfast takeaway (lovely coffee and pastries) and also Byfords (2 mins away) where we had an amazing evening meal and the best breakfast of our stay. ##### Lisa L.

The cottage was as described and a quaint little place with good amenities. Also really central without being too noisy with a cafe just next door for morning coffee. Minor points for me as a poor sleeper that blackout curtains would be appreciated, and we didn’t find the pillows comfortable! A draining rack in the kitchen would be helpful but otherwise the kitchen was very well equipped. Also a more comfortable sofa as the second sofa would have been lovely. All in all a great property and a great host. Would return! ##### Rosalind H.
