Take romance to the next level with a stay at this charming cottage, a perfect hideaway and coastal retreat for couples in the picturesque town of Holt. Located just steps away from the hustle and bustle of the high street, this quaint home fuses traditional charm with chic style, with its soft interior embracing the simplicity of its surroundings. Inside, you'll find a warm and welcoming living room, with two enormous chesterfield sofas that invite you to curl up, unwind and enjoy each other's company. There's a well-equipped kitchen for rustling up intimate dinners, while upstairs you'll find the impressive master suite. With white-scrubbed floorboards, a striking feature wall and sun streaming in through the Velux windows, this is the ultimate place to relax. The best thing about it? The freestanding oval bath perched at the end of the bed, inviting you to take a romantic dip before you head outside to sip sundowners in the privacy of the shingled courtyard.
