Chic 2-bedroom Georgian apartment in lovely Holt, 3 miles from the North Norfolk coast.

Child friendly

Walk to a pub

Walk to a shop

WiFi

There’s a reason why the Georgian town of Holt so often graces top 10 lists of places to visit, live and shop in the national press–and this townhouse apartment is the best place from which to get to know this North Norfolk gem. Centrally located on the high street, it’s a home from home with divine attention to detail: old barrelled ceilings and wooden floors, objets collected on the interiors stylist owner’s global travels (a selection of which guests can purchase), and modern luxuries like The White Company linens and a Fired Earth bathroom. The master bedroom houses a four-poster bed of our period-conversion dreams and there’s a beautiful front-facing second bedroom (twin or superking).

You’re on the top floor of the building, overlooking the bustling high street, which is lined with great independents. From delis and cafes to fishmongers, butchers, bakeries and antique shops, you can explore for hours. If you’ve a car, zip 3 miles to the coast for a walk up to Blakeney Point or a bracing swim in the North Sea.

Getting here: it’s easiest to drive but you could train to Sheringham then taxi or ask for a pick-up (15 mins)

“I spent my 20s and 30s travelling and living abroad, mostly in Asia, before moving back and into this flat, which I filled with maps and travelling treasures. When the opportunity to buy the downstairs flat came up, I snapped it up and moved, then gutted and rebuilt this one. I’m a freelance stylist and love welcoming guests to my former home, and introducing them to everything this great county has to offer. I spend a lot of time travelling around Norfolk in Nelson, my vintage Morris Minor, so know all the best places!” Owner, Sarah

She loves
“Helping guests plan their stay by way of a comprehensive and exclusive online guest guide, offering the chance to delve deeper into the surroundings when booking an ‘Experience Stay’.”

We love
The traditional porcelain china and vintage bone-handled cutlery. Makes every meal feel a bit special.

"Really charming and interesting townhouse. We loved being in the town. Lots of really thoughtful touches - including a great, extensive guide book for guests that we had no hope of working our way through as we were only there 2 nights! It’s a great place to be based in Norfolk."

"We had a fantastic week staying at Sarah’s in Holt. Norfolk has so much to offer, and Sarah’s place was perfectly situated for discovering Holt and the surrounding areas. The accommodation was absolutely charming – beautifully decorated, comfortable. Sarah made us feel very welcome with some lovely surprises on arrival, and the bed linen and towels were top quality, which was much appreciated. Sarah provided us with brilliant recommendations, so we made the most of our stay."

"It's a beautiful apartment with a lot of historical character, yet the facilities are thoroughly modern. The decor is really nice and would be appropriate for a boutique hotel."

Surrounds.

Holt is 3 miles from the stunning North Norfolk coast. Keen walkers can hike up to Blakeney Point from Cley to experience one of the last true wildernesses in the UK, complete with a resident colony of seals.
Jump on the steam train from Holt and chug through the countryside past traditional flint villages and out to the coastal town of Sheringham.
For potted family fun, go crabbing at Blakeney quay. Or just buy a delicious dressed Cromer crab from the fishermen for lunch!
Norfolk has the greatest concentration of medieval churches in the world. Our top 5 are in the nearby Glaven Valley – Blakeney, as impressive as any city church; Wiveton, with its mooring rope marks clearly carved into the walls; cathedral-like Cley; idyllic Glandford; and round-tower Letheringsett. You can easily visit them all in a day.
The Coastal Exploration company can take you out on a traditional wood sailing vessel to explore the beautiful saltmarsh habitat off-shore and open water.
Ex-BBC cameraman Martin Hayward Smith runs brilliant Landrover safaris – photograph countryside geese and hares or go on a watery tideline adventure.
The Owl Trail will lead you around Holt’s oldest and best hidden spots; just follow the 12 plaques around town.
If you’re here in summer, July is festival time; in winter, seasonal markets and fairy lights add to Holt’s chocolate-box appeal.
