About this company

The Original Holding Company Limited is a holding company registered in Norfolk, previously named Norfolk Country Cottages Limited until 2014. It has been controlled by The Original Topco Limited since February 2024 and holds The Original Cottage Company Limited as a subsidiary, indicating its place within a group operating in holiday cottage letting and travel planning. The registered entity itself is classified under general business support activities rather than direct trading, consistent with its role as a group holding vehicle. Companies House records show it owns multiple freehold and leasehold property titles in Norfolk and Suffolk, reflecting the wider group's holiday cottage portfolio rather than activity carried out by this company directly.
