About this property
This wonderful country retreat, tucked away on the southern end of Cley-next-the-Sea, is as spacious as it is sophisticated. A perfect base for families and groups of friends craving a quiet get-together, from here guests can explore everything that this irresistible part of the Norfolk Coast is famous for, including coast and countryside walks, and a wealth of family attractions.
The roaring wood burner and sumptuous furnishings in the generous lounge create a truly warming ambience - the ultimate antidote to soothe weary walking muscles at the end of a busy day on the trails. Flooded with natural sunlight, the breathtaking countryside views from the spacious and stylish kitchen/diner will inspire you to get creative, whilst the peaceful, cosy atmosphere of the adjoining snug offers a quiet spot to plan tomorrow’s adventure. Upstairs, the three super-king-size bedrooms and one king-size bedroom (all zip-and-link for your flexibility) feature soft, neutral tones and charming, rustic decor reminiscent of a country cottage. Serving the bedrooms are an en-suite shower room, en-suite bathroom, and well-appointed family bathroom.

Mrs Sturgess
Fantastic home in a great location. Spacious but had a cosy feel . Very large comfortable beds with lovely crisp white linen. Plenty of hot water in the bathrooms. Great for a family or group of friends. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

Our stay at Valley House couldn’t have been better. A great house in a wonderful location. Easy access to all the areas of Norfolk and Suffolk you could wish to visit. Holt is a charming town and the local pubs in walking distance are proper country pubs! The beds are so comfortable and the log burner probably the best and most efficient I’ve ever encountered! Would highly recommend and will book if and when returning to Norfolk. .
