Marven and Mike made our stay at Plantation House exceptional. The very high attention to detail in all aspects (decor, cuisine, general atmosphere) of our experience made our stay a very pleasant, relaxed, very high quality experience.

We highly recommend Plantation House to anyone wishing to find a wonderful place to stay and relax while exploring the region.

Will be back for certain in the future.

To us, a B&B is normally somewhere we just spend the night whilst exploring the local area, but needs to be comfortable with all modern conveniences. However, such is the attention to detail and your comfort, at Plantation House, that its feels like a holiday destination in itself. The bedrooms are individually designed and furnished and very comfortable. We stayed in the French Room a generously and luxuriously furnished en-suite bedoom overlooking the garden. The breakfasts are excellent, perfectly cooked and beautifully presented in a tastefully decorated dining room. You want to spend time learning of the area whilst relaxing in the adjoining lounge and chatting with Marven and Mike about the best places to visit and eat. Marven's cooking is excellent - just don't ask for a poached egg! - bottled gas provides an intermittent supply of fuel making it very difficult to match Marven's exacting standards! It's so good you want to have dinner there too and enjoy their very own produce from the garden - but you'll have to settle for breakfast alone and their recommendations for dinner venues in nearby Holt. The garden is somewhere to enjoy too. Guests are welcome to use the garden, as I believe, many visit to do just that. This is Mike's area of expertise and he has created a very intimate and private space for you to relax in and enjoy, your schedule and weather permitting.
Marven and Mike are delightful and friendly hosts who have created a very welcoming, eclectic and extremely comfortable home where you are invited to stay.

The other reviewers have obviously stayed at the same place as we did. Marven and Michael were attentive and welcoming from the moment we knocked on the door. You felt that everything had been chosen for the benefits it would bring the business (crisp table linen and cut-glass fruit glasses). Breakfast was perfect and we felt thay would help us with our own garden if we did not live so far away. Would gladly recommend to anyone who values personal B&B attention.

We had such a wonderful stay with Marven and Mike and completely agree with all of the other reviews. The house has been decorated beautifully and was spotlessly clean - our room (the Country Room) was perfectly sized with ample natural light (windows on two sides) with lovely views over the field towards the railway. We think the house is perfectly located - on the edge of Holt but within an easy walk of the pubs and restaurants in the town (we walked to dinner both nights) and right next to the Holt station on the North Norfolk Railway (we got the train to Weybourne and walked to Sheringham, and then got the train back one day).

The breakfast was delicious (and actually felt healthy!) and the free port and sherry was a really nice touch...and a lovely way to end the evening after the walk back from town.

But most importantly of all by the time we left we felt like we were saying goodbye to friends - Marven and Mike were lovely hosts and we look forward to going back to stay with them soon.
