A cool comfortable cottage, especially for hot weather!

We enjoyed our week at Bolt Hole cottage. It was different from where we have stayed before. French doors would be good to enhance the outside more! A little maintenance was needed in one or two places, but overall it was well equipped and comfortable.

Nice cosy cottage, great location

The Bolt hole was a great location for us, as a holiday base. It had everything we needed for a comfortable holiday. The enclosed garden was really good for our dog, and there were some nice footpaths directly from the cottage.

A excellent stay for a Norfolk holiday

A nice house in a quiet area from where you can cycle wonderfully. Both inland and to the coast. Upon arrival there was a nice surprise on the table consisting of local products and a nice bottle of wine.

Excellent place to stay

Myself, husband and daughter stayed for 5 nights. We also brought the dog who loved his new home for the week. There is a nice garden to relax in and it was a comfortable stay. Shower not that powerful, but more than adequate for our needs. The welcome gifts that were left for us were lovely and a great touch. All round a wonderful stay and excellent value for money. We would recommend and would revisit.

Bolt Hole break

Wonderful holiday (apart from the rain), lovely cottage, but would have liked a shower as well as the bath. Great location. Nothing to fault, just perfect. Roll on 2024 so we can do it all again!

Bolt hole short stay

Excellent service when boiler shut down on heating. Shame about bathroom, no grab handles for bath and no shower facilities even over the bath. Very comfortable and convenient for Sheringham with enclosed garden for dogs.

A good base for exploring North Norfolk but needs a refresh

I had a weeks stay here with my wife and six year old. The property had character and was located close to the seaside towns of Sheringham and Cromer. Id say it was adequate in size for the three of us and well equipped. There was a decent sized garden with a lawn for me and my six year old to play games on. On the downside, the property was a bit grubby in areas and could do with some updating.

Bolt hole. Winter break

We have used the Rookery farm cottage and camp site stays and have always been pleased with the service and conditions. Our only complaint is the bathroom in the Bolt hole. Access to the bath/shower for my partner is impossible due to her current disability. The bathroom desperately requires a revamp, please!!

8/10 Good

Great place to get some down time and peace and quiet.

Located just close enough to walk to a couple of nice pubs with good food, can do some of the walk across the fields and extend/make loops across some fields which was lovely. House was clean with the exception of a few cobwebs, beds very comfy and had all the appliances you would expect/need. Parking limited to 1 car, unless you use the grass land near by, which was fine as we were there in the dry time so no issues parking, but could be an issue. Garden was secure for our dog who is not inclined to jump, it should be noted that the roadside walls are quite low and may be an issue for more energetic dogs.

6/10 Okay

Had a nice time but would not choose this cottage again because of disappointing level of comfort

Level of comfort disappointing for an award winning property - there doesn’t seem to be much insulation; when warm outside its also warm inside (same with cold wheather) - sofa and arm chair are so far gone you almost hit the floor - black mold on the bath very unhygienic! - water cooker and oven not clean (we didnt use them) - we really missed a walk-in shower
From a partner site

6/10 Okay

Not the best for Gold award.

Very good location really good for dogs and a safe garden. The cottage inside the furnishings ie Settee and chair very uncomfortable very small double bed and the bath which is a good size but had no hand holds to help when getting in & out which could be very dangerous especially for older people. The washing up brush wash a health hazard so we put it in the bin.
From a partner site

6/10 Okay

Tiny property that needs a lot of money spent on it

Very nice hosts terry and tracy who manage the property but the reality is for four people this is a very cramped space, felt like a prison camp, badly designed, not enough light, fridge freezer is tiny so totally impractical, no food preparation spaces so he’s to self cater, equipment is all dated in the kitchen. Needs a total redesign as it is like living in a thin corridor, needs an extension to widen the property and money properly money spent on it Photos are very deceiving regarding its size.
