Lion Cottage - Dog-Friendly 3-Bed in Heart of Holt

beautifully decorated and fantastic location.

As it’s an old property you bump your head on the ceiling in parts.

The home was very charming in a location in the center of Holt which cannot be beat - within arms length of all the boutique shopping and dining options available in Holt. It has very good sized bedrooms (it was just myself and my son so we only used 2 out of the three bedrooms) and the bathrooms had good, strong showers and has all the amenities one needs while on holiday, long or short. While it did not have parking, there is parking nearby for 1 hour that makes it easy to unload bags, etc and the Albert Street carpark for overnight parking is less than 5 minutes walk away. The hosts were very quick to respond to any queries and even recommended a fish & chip shop near the sea, a short drive away in Cromer, which my son and I tremendously enjoyed!

It was not a problem for us, but I would caution anyone with mobility issues or difficulty climbing stairs to use this property as the steps are quite steep and high and because the house is in an old building (which is part of the charm), the steps may be somewhat uneven. It will not be an issue for those with no mobility issues, but I would not take my elderly mum or parents-in-law here for instance as they will not be able to get up to the bedrooms and bathrooms. Also, if you are a bit taller, be cautious going down the stairs as the ceilings are quite low, so my tall son kept bumping his head!

The cottage was stylish and in a good location

Patchy cleaning. So the kitchen sink was spotless but the skirting boards and top of the panelling were very dusty. Similarly dusty boxed in pipes in the bathrooms, with old dust and dirt in the toilet seat crevices. Hairs found on bath, towel and soap dispenser. Annoying to have neither a washing up bowl nor a plug for the kitchen sink! One cupboard hinges were broken. Finally the summer weight duvets were not warm enough.

location was good to explore the town and surrounding areas, the accommodation was clean and well equipped (kettle was not working:-(, it was reported so hopefully it will be replaced soon)

location house very nice

nothing

location

could do with better furnishings, pillows blankets etc could do with an upgrade! sofas were small and different to what is shown in the pictures.

The cottage is situated in an excellent location surrounded by cafes and independent shops. There are also excellent pubs and restaurants just around the corner so there is no need to take the car. In all it is a lovely cozy cottage and we enjoyed our short stay.

The double bed at the top floor is a small double, it could be a bit bigger to be more comfortable for two. The punk beds are strictly for kids as the mattresses are thin. We thought that the ensuite bathroom could have some shelves or stools where we could put our toilet stuff; we ended up putting them on the floor. We would have liked to have the three small bins in the house for differentiating our recycling waste.

Only given one tea towel. Needs more. Only 2 dishwasher tablets. Needed more. A hand towel needed in kitchen.

parking a bit of an issue but expected that being in central holt
