  A fantastic location if you like solitude, set well into the estate among woodland with wildlife in abundance including roe deer, owls, foxes etc. The mile long route in from the gates is through open pasture with herds of fallow deer and flocks of sheep, hares, and in the evening lots of rabbits. Holkham is a wonderful place to stay particularly if you are into wildlife, especially birding. The wildlife conservation area is close by as is the beach. The Victoria restaurant is easy to get to without coming off the estate where the food is very good. The lodge itself is very cosy and warm once the log burner is lit. (There are two radiators but not quite adequate on there own for us as at the time, february, as the outside temperature was close to freezing) It consists of one very large, comfortable bed sitting room with separate loo and shower room. Plenty of things like tea, coffee, sugar etc plus some very nice Holkham biscuits, both savoury and shortbread. There are dog bowls provided along with some treats in a tin.

  The cottage was very well appointed and the description of the facilities (including the lack of sink) was accurate. Actually, the description undersold it slightly, as it didn't make clear that the cottage has wifi. The standard of furnishings was excellent and the property manager was very helpful. The welcome hamper, with its range of local products, was a lovely touch. It's a beautiful location, in a remote corner of the Holkham site. It actually felt like a luxury hotel room, transplanted into a woodland setting. We will definitely return to try another of the properties at Holkham.

  I am not sure how many years we have stayed at Arisaig but possibly eleven and we intend to come again. We love it here. The house is very well equipped - you don’t need to bring anything with you. It is clean and comfortable. Lovely sunny garden room to read in. The house is in a very quiet area of Wells. It is very close to the shops, pubs and cafes. It’s a short walk to the harbour and then a gentle stroll to the sandy Wells beach. Drive along the coast to Sheringham, Cromer and Hunstanton plus other places in between. If we could live here in Wells and in this house, we would!

  The cottage was in a perfect location and we were delighted with our choice. The goody bag was a nice touch but we would have preferred basics like milk, bread and butter as there are no shops in the immediate surroundings and frustrating if you arrive late. One loo roll (poor quality) was not enough for 3 nights. We had to wash our dishes outside as the shower and loo areas are tiny and this isn't clearly explained on your website. The mattress cover was stained and needs replacing. Communication was good getting to the cottage and it was easy to access when we arrived.

  A really lovely time away from work and everyday life. Beautiful and utterly peaceful. Wonderful trees, birds and skies. All the space & huge landscape is therapeutic and comforting. The welcome hamper was very nice. We enjoyed cycling, walking and Holkham bay is an incredible beach which thankfully swallows up everyone who is also enjoying the beach. A great stay and will recommend to others. A wonderful sense of peace in this long nurtured landscape - friendly jays around the estate & a general openness sharing a historic gem that still lives in the present.
