What a brilliant few days we had at Nu-Holme. The cottage is tidy and clean (apart from the velux windows in the bathroom), and was very comfortable. Very good info pack and instruction manuals, and plenty of nearby takeaways. It was a bonus that there is a co-op store 30 seconds walk from the cottage. We would definitely come back for another visit

We had a lovely holiday at Nu Holme. The property was excellent so clean and well equipped. That is why we have booked it again and again. The location is absolutely great - central for everything.

Perfect base for what we needed. Excellent location to shops and bars/cafes. Well kitted out kitchen, cosy living room upstairs and comfy beds. Only thing I would say is would be nice to have bigger towels like a bath sheet (but a bonus towels were provided) and the floorboards are really squeaky! That’s me being picky though as they didn’t affect our stay.
