"Great location and beautiful house and grounds. Hosts were very welcoming, flexibility on being able to use parking spa"

10.0

Spacious and beautiful grounds. Kitchen well stocked with everything you could need. Hot tub was huge and in such a lovely spot.

A full length mirror in one of the rooms would have been handy. Perhaps a curtain on the kitchen door window as the main sink was visible. Although a very cool sink also in the shower room.

"I fell in love with the apartment and didn’t want to leave."

8.0

My in-laws paid for me to stay at the Writer’s Retreat for two nights to celebrate my 50th birthday - and what a glorious time I had. The apartment was magical. While it is a grand historic home, I felt comfortable the minute I arrived and very soon found my spot on the sofa with the French doors open to the lovely big garden, listening to the rain. As I was there to continue writing my first book, I found the fact that it used to be home to the writer, Jane Hales, who lived in the house all her life, inspirational. It was so peaceful and the uninterrupted time meant I accomplished so much. The location, very close to the high street, was ideal for popping into Holt and would be perfect as a base if you wanted to venture further afield to the coast or into Norwich. I really enjoyed meeting one of the current owners, who was happy to share knowledge about the apartment/house and its former occupant, who was a relative. As I was on my own, I found it very comforting to put a face to the name and know who to contact if I needed anything. It’s safe to say, I did not want to leave. Top tip: If you’re not used to pitch black bedrooms, bring a nightlight, as it can be disconcerting.

"Heavenly"

10.0

Loved this place. Beautiful decor - we felt like we were in a BBC period drama. Warm and cosy - having the open fire was an added bonus. Fully equipped. Very spacious and private. Location ideal for exploring Holt and the Norfolk coat and countryside. Hot tub was gorgeous even on a freezing cold January evening. We had a great time!

Very small point but could have done with lights outside especially around the hot tub and a little table next to the hot tub for drinks
