Guests say
The Nest in Holt offers a comfortable stay with its warm atmosphere and enclosed garden, ideal for pets. Its proximity to woods and the coast, alongside the quaint and friendly town of Holt, provides a delightful experience. The property is praised for its cleanliness, central location, and suitability for a relaxing break with nearby beach walks.
The property generally maintains good standards of cleanliness, though there are mentions of a cobweb and a need for a more thorough clean in some areas. No persistent issues are noted, indicating that cleanliness is satisfactory but with room for improvement.
The location is highly regarded, being in a quiet area with a short walk to the woods and only a few miles from the coast. Its central position to local attractions and the town of Holt is appreciated by guests.
Guests find the beds and lounge furniture comfortable, contributing to a warm and welcoming stay. However, there are comments about uncomfortable beds and inadequate pillows in one of the rooms, suggesting that comfort levels may vary.
The reviews provide mixed feedback on facilities and maintenance. While the garden and cleanliness are praised, there are mentions of a non-working hoover, a freezer needing defrosting, and scattered garden chairs. Some areas appear tired and in need of attention. There is insufficient information to assess the overall state of facilities and maintenance comprehensively.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the host in the reviews. Therefore, it is not possible to assess the thoughtfulness of the host towards the guests, and this category cannot be scored.

The location was perfect with just a 10 minute walk into the lovely Town of Holt. It was a good central location for costal and country walks. The garden was well laid out and completely secure for our dog.

Location is perfect, short walk into Holt, and central to all the great beaches nearby. Really clean place with all the amenities, you may need. Well set up for a relaxing break of walks on the beach and relaxing back at base. We will definitely be looking to return.
