Most guests found Palmers Lodge to be clean and well-maintained, with only a few isolated comments about dampness and the presence of spiders and bugs, which could be attributed to the natural woodland setting.
The location is highly praised for its seclusion, peacefulness, and access to the Holkham Estate's grounds and nearby coastline. Guests love the wildlife and the estate's magical setting.
The lodge is frequently described as comfortable, with a particularly comfortable bed and sofa. The snug cinema and log burner add to the cosy atmosphere, although there are minor comments about the property being cold at times.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, especially the welcome hamper and wood burner. However, some guests suggest improvements in kitchen equipment and mention a lack of outdoor tap for washing dogs, indicating some areas for enhancement.
The thoughtfulness of the hosts is evident in the welcome hamper and other amenities provided. While these gifts are greatly appreciated by guests, it is important to note that such extras, while delightful, are subject to change and not guaranteed.

Mr Scott
The lodge was perfect for us and beat the description on the web site and our expectations'. A lovely quiet spot, buried in the heart of the wood. We had the grounds , the house to explore, and the walled garden was beautiful, and huge! The staff are unfailingly warm, friendly and professional. We will be going back.

A lovely cosy lodge, very quirky and in a fabulous location particularly if you enjoy walking. All very comfortable and kitchen well equipped. Wi-Fi worked well. We didn’t use the log burner, however plenty of logs were supplied if we had wanted to. Goodies on arrival were very much appreciated. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to the next visit.

Palmers lodge is quirky and in a quiet area of the Holkham estate, although there’s no private garden our dog was ok off the lead outside the lodge by the table and benches. We spotted deers on a daily basis, just magical and so peaceful. Upstairs is lovely, we were even a bit gutted it was so hot as we didn’t get chance to use the log burner! Downstairs is super quirky but a little damp. Overall, we loved it and will definitely return to Holkham.
