Well equipped, comfortable bungalow in easy reach of pretty Georgian town of Holt. Great location for exploring coast, Broads and the many heritage railways and historical sites.
Could the shower be descaled or improved? Bit of a pathetic dribble at present, but not enough to hassle your housekeeper - we managed fine and enjoyed our time with Norfolk Stay.
We have stayed before and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly again. We will return! Thank you.

My wife and i loved the town of holt.It has a great range of cafes,bars,restaurants and appealling shops.As we had previously stayed in sheringham we were looking forward to our stay in holt.The property in question is well located in a quiet area approximately 10 minutes walk from the town itself.Which was good,as we did not have to use our car for visits,as parking there can be difficult at busy times.I had some initial difficulty in accessing the property due to a stiff door lock(previously reported,but attended to i believe).The property itself was larger than we expected.Particularly the kitchen/dining room extension.The property itself was darker in the lounge,the property could be lifted immediately by a lighter colour choice.Likewise the internal doors,were all a dark brown colour.As we ate only breakfast in the property,we didn't use all of the facilities.I think we counted 10 or so teddies(some child size),spread around the bedrooms.Without wishing to offend the owner;a bit of de-personalizing in the home would improve it further.We had some minor issues with maintenance in the property; the extraction fan in the bathroom was completely clogged up with hair(?),and dust-as it would not function.This property could easily be improved by a refresh,and some upgrades internally.It had the makings of a spacious,lovely holiday let with attention to some of the issues i have highlighted.I was informed that the issues i raised were pretty minor(then why hadn't they been attended to ).As i was in my pyjamas and ready for bed-time viewing i wasn't likely to phone the maintenance agency that late in the day to fix a remote for the bedroom tv which was corroded and not functioning-I managed to activate myself,and replaced with my own new batteries.

Arrows is a well appointed bungalow within a reasonably short, flat walk of the centre of Holt, which provides a full range of independent shops. There is a very open alleyway between two bungalows, which is worth seeking out It is very well appointed, of particular note are the kitchen utensils and wet room. I note a previous reviewers comment that there is an observation which comments on the poor quality of the kitchen utensils, this is entirely incorrect based upon my visit. The picture of the wet from is also misleading the shower has a very nice glass partition, not the curtain shown in the picture. A great improvement. For less mobile visitors I note that the step from the dining area to the back garden is rather steep although there is a handrail.

A comfortable and very spacious two bedroom bungalow in a quiet residential area of Holt. Easy 10 minute walk to the town centre, and has its own single off-street parking space. Property is perhaps not the last word in modernity, but very clean, well presented and well equipped. The only thing missing was a shaver point in the bathroom so take an adapter if you need one.



Well-equipped, quiet - but disappointing

A well-equipped property in a quiet location in Holt.

Disappointingly, although this appears to be a non-smoking property (rented as such through a number of other agencies/websites, including Hoseasons, Bookings.com, Trip Advisor and vrbo), the lounge had a strong, pervading smell of cigarette smoke, seemingly well-intruded into the soft furnishings – which wasn’t cleared by opening the windows on a daily basis.

We have downgraded some of our ratings because of this issue.

We feel that we couldn't recommend, or return to, this property until this issue is resolved - which is, well...disappointing, given what it has to offer otherwise.




Arrows - scores a bullseye!

Set in a very quiet location in Holt and in very easy walking distance of the town centre. Holt is ideal as it is perfectly located for visiting all of Norfolks' attractions. Arrows is very well appointed with beds for four people, one double, and two singles (sharing), two toilets and a wet room replacing a bath. The property is spacious with a very cosy lounge. Off road parking is okay for a family car. The kitchen is clean and very well equipped as is the whole property. Just two very minor criticisms (which did NOT spoil our stay), replace or paint the internal doors white and the outside street light is directly opposite so we had a full moon effect every night!
Overall a really good property which after long walks and long days visiting was very homely to comeback to.

The standard of accommodation was excellent well worth it.

Well equipped cottage, well furnished and comfortable. Everything you need and lots of useful information and help clearly displayed inside the cottage. Nicely situated in walking distance of Holt centre with pretty gardens. Pity the weather was too wet to enjoy sitting outside - wish you could book sunny weather as well! We will be back. Thanks to the friendly staff when I rang to check out of hours contact details. Please check supplied front door key - was a bit sticky in the lock either locking or unlocking. All perfect except a late check in of 5pm (different from 4pm on cottages.com website when I booked) which is why I rang to ask about help after 5pm if we had had a problem with the key - out of hours number needs to be on the arrival info if access is regularly so late in the afternoon. Otherwise perfect. Hidden gem.



The best equipped house we have stayed in.

A very central location, with a short level walk into Holt centre for a good range of independent shops and pubs/cafes. Close to coast and other attractions.
Well furnished and comfortable, with a good amount of plates, cutlery, etc.
As we stayed when the weather was warm, 10.5 tog duvets on all the beds were a bit too warm. Maybe a blackout blind or lining to the curtains in the twin bedroom would be good in the summer.

Thank you for your review and for your comments regarding the window blinds. No-one else has brought this to our attention but the owner has taken on board your comments and will be fitting black outs.to the back rooms. He has decided to keep the 10.5 duvet's due to changeable weather and the colder seasons but will have a rethink about the warmer seasons. For your information and previous reviews, the paving stones to both the front and the lounge patio have been jet washed and there is now a regular window cleaner who attends on an 8 week cycle. We hope to see you again soon

Located on a small estate on the outskirts of Holt within walking distance of the town centre a nice bungalow with first impressions being favorable. Inside the property was clean well furnished with plenty of equipment. When we tried to use the oven though it wasn't very clean and required attention. Outside there is a small garden with a patio and a table and chairs, the patio required jet washing though which spoiled the experience as did the uncut grass and general untidiness of the garden. We did have an issue with keys which was promptly seen to by Norfolk Stay. Would consider booking again but only if issues were seen to.

Thank you Terrence for taking the time to write and submit your review. Arrows is a new property to us this year and I am sorry if we didn't quite get it right for you this time. I will certainly pass your comments to the property manager who is on hand and ready to address any issues that are reported during your stay. His number is in the property and within your arrival instructions. We will certainly look to address the points you have raised and hope that you do visit us again.
