Victorian Getaway Close to Beach, Downtown and Train!

This property was not as expected. When we arrived the smell of mothballs was overwhelming. We went around opening windows and trying the AC but to no avail. The queen bed was lumpy and extremely uncomfortable. There was only one bathroom, no 1/2 bath and the door to get in couldn’t open all the way without hitting the toilet. Shower was moldy with no pressure. Overall a very unpleasant experience and not up to the standard we expected based on the price point.

This is an elegant but cozy property located close to all of the wonderful things to explore north of Boston.

This unit was perfect for our stay and had everything we needed and more. Would love to go back again!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful house. The host provided everything we needed, it was clean, and super convenient for us. Highly recommend!

We had the best time at Holly House. Ipswich is adorable, close to the train and all the good coffee spots! Holly House was exceptionally clean and we felt right at home. Easy check in, great value, we’ll be back next year!

very comfortable stay in convenient location, very clean

It was good except the people upstairs walking around a lot.

Amazing place! Amazing stay! Relaxing, sunny, quiet, clean, comfortable and cozy! Beautifully decorated and nicely stocked with everything we needed!  The local area offered great restaurants, beautiful open spaces, farms - all minutes from Holly House!

Holly House is a remodeled Victorian house. My brother and I were looking for a place with two bedrooms, and we were very comfortable with the two spacious rooms we found. The living room is a good place to relax, and we appreciated the full kitchen where we could do some cooking. The gardens surrounding the house are very pretty. We were a bit concerned about the location along Linebrook Rd., but what traffic there was - Ipswich rush hour - didn't disturb us very much, and it was very quiet at night. Holly House is quite close to the town center and is well situated for reaching the beaches, walking trails, restaurants and shopping. We were pleased that a grocery store was nearby. We'd come back and would recommend the place to others.

We took our Nephew to the area because he is a huge history nut. The rental was perfect to get in and around Boston. We took the train in from Ipswhich which was super convenient. Highly recommend this rental.

This property is beyond perfect! The yard and private sitting area is well maintained and there is plenty of parking space. The interior was spotless and decorated with so much thought and the Victorian decor was cozy yet beautiful. Our hosts were easy to work with and responded quickly to any questions we had. On top of all the charm and elegance the home is located next door to a lovely historic restaurant with delicious food and tasty cocktails. If we ever travel back to Ipswich we will be staying here again!

This is our 6th visit to this property.

We stayed in the first floor apartment of Holly House this trip. It was so comfortable and homey. We love that it is right next door to the Harte House restaurant. Thank you Denise for this great stay.
