Enjoyed our time at the cottage. Very comfortable and had everything we needed. The garden however is complete separate to the cottage and is accessed by a narrow grassy path. It is not lit and difficult to see where you are going in the dark. We did take a lantern with us which was very useful. The are is lovely and near to Sheringham, which was Read morelovely. Hide

As a cottage the Hoot was acceptable but as a Dog Friendly cottage it missed the mark, with the (excellent) garden 150 yards away it was not at all convenient for us and our dogs.

A lovely cottage ideally situated for Holt and the beautiful North Norfolk coast. We loved the bird themes around the house, very much in keeping with the name of the property and especially the curtains & lampshades in the bedroom! The cottage is well equipped although the clothes hanging facilities are a little unconventional! If you're exRead morepecting a large screened TV you may be disappointed however, it was not high on our priority list! We prefer being outside exploring the local area which certainly has plenty to offer. We were out and about most of the time so did not use the garden or summerhouse. The garden is a short walk from the property and would be a great space to relax especially in the warmer weather. Thank you. Hide

A lovely, well equipped cottage. Very cute. Good shower, good bed. The garden is a short walk away where we enjoyed a nice bottle of wine in the late afternoon sun.

A lovely, clean, cosy cottage in a great location close to lots of good days out (Sheringham, Amazona Zoo and Edgefield Pottery for example). Very good kitchen and bathroom, comfortable beds and the garden down the pretty lane is a nice place to read a book. If you are over 5'4" mind your head upstairs, though. Would book this again!

Lovely comfortable and modern cottage and close to all the beaches, parks etc. Very fortunate the weather improved on Tuesday and we enjoyed some lovely days on the coast. Also enjoyed the garden and summerhouse at the end of the day with a Gin & Tonic.

Wonderful cottage, lovely and cosy and perfect for the two of us and our two Jack Russells. Constant hot water and really lovely shower room. Location was perfect. Had a fabulous Sunday Roast at The Red Hartt Pub, 5 mins walk from the cottage. Will definitely recommend, thank you

The cottage and the area were absolutely beautiful. However, we were disappointed that the garden was not directly attached to the cottage as we had to walk an 40 yard walk away along a path. The garden was lovely
