    “A lovely holiday cottage and the owners and manager were extremely helpful WHEN we eventually got a contact number for them personally just a week or two before our stay .”

    We found communication with Sykes Holiday Cottages VERY frustrating. After asking questions on their online chat no one would be there to answer . Then they would reply at a random time when I was unavailable to chat so said I would have to ask again on a new chat instead of just answering the questions in a reply . No one on a phone line at all . Would hesitate to use that company again as not user friendly ... All the cottages in this small complex were well kept and we really enjoyed our ...

Holt 9 miles.

Acorn Cottages

Acorn cottages are nestled in a gravelled courtyard of five properties and are situated in the tranquil village of Wood Norton amidst the Norfolk countryside. Sympathetically converted from former farm buildings, these single-storey cottages are ideally suited for those wishing to explore the glorious North Norfolk coastline and the picturesque, historic nearby market towns of Fakenham and Holt. Each of these cottages offers bright, spacious accommodation, traditionally furnished with modern facilities. Well-equipped and welcoming, they share a large, sheltered courtyard and have the benefit of their own private patio where you can relax and unwind. For the younger members of the family, the cottages have a splendid communal play area with swings, a slide and a table tennis room. The popular Georgian market town of Holt has excellent amenities with a wide choice of interesting independent shops, pubs, tea rooms, and restaurants. Be sure to take a trip on the steam train from here, which runs to the traditional seaside town of Sheringham, or take a short drive to the coast, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a haven for birdwatchers and walkers. With miles of sandy beaches and majestic dunes, these cottages are ideally placed for taking boat trips to see the seals or simply visiting the RSPB reserves and coastal paths. Well worth a visit is the historic city of Norwich, with its magnificent cathedral towering above the surrounding medieval streets hosting museums, galleries and excellent shopping facilities. Acorn cottages are well-placed in Norfolk to enjoy a wide variety of attractions.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
