Holt may well be called "a small market town" but it is a giant in the quality and quantity of its fine shops and galleries and fine Georgian architecture.

To be able to wander the back alleys, nooks and crannies that make up the town centre is, in itself, a pleasure and it is this unique character that brings visitors from miles around.

For the casual visitor, or the person in search of a unique item to enhance their home or business, Holt can offer an incredible choice. Each season provides an opportunity to enjoy the changes that give so much pleasure to all, from Holt Summer Festival of performance, art and music to the magical display of Christmas lights that have become so well known as "The Holt Christmas Festival".

Countless people contribute in so many ways to ensure that Holt is a vibrant and successful town that we see today.
