We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cobblestones. John, the owner sent us all the info we could need before hand. Well looked after, clean and comfortable accommodation. Holt town under five minutes away on foot. Great fish and chips at Nelson’s in the High St. Spout Hill was a lovely walk which we did a few times. Holt Country Park is well worth a visit with its sculpture trail.
