Use a chisel and hammer? How big is the bolt head? 8mm, but can not get anything near it, apart from a long reach socket

Have you git a dremel with a flexible head. Grind the head of the bolt off then when the thermostat housing is off turn the rest of the bolt out with grips or stilsons.

I will repeat this again, I can get nothing near the head of the bolt, no dremel, no hammer, no mole grips, no nothing.

What is the car? Have you looked underneath, it's usually better access under there.
