This cottage in pretty Docking is perfect for couples, friends or a small family seeking a relaxing Norfolk getaway. Set within the owner's grounds as a self-contained annexe, it creates a welcoming base for exploring North Norfolk. You'll have a shop, traditional pub and fish and chip shop within 0.5 miles. The coastal village of Brancaster (5 miles) is renowned for its fresh seafood and championship golf course overlooking salt marshes and the sea. You’ll be spoilt for choice if you love a beach, with wide golden sands, rolling dunes and kitesurfing at Old Hunstanton (7 miles). Wells-next-the-Sea (11 miles) also charms visitors with its picturesque harbour, colourful beach huts and vast beach backed by fragrant pine woods. Days out may include spotting wildlife at RSPB Titchwell Marsh, (5 miles) watching the famous wader spectacular at Snettisham Nature Reserve (10 miles) or admiring fields of fragrant Norfolk Lavender (6 miles).
Step through the front door and into a bright and spacious open-plan living area that’s ideal for spending quality time together. The lounge has a comfy corner sofa arranged around a Smart TV. Alongside, the dining area provides space for shared meals, while the kitchen is thoughtfully arranged with a breakfast bar and stools for leisurely morning coffees. A handy cloakroom on the ground floor also houses a washing machine and separate WC. Upstairs, characterful sloping ceilings add charm to two inviting bedrooms – a king-size room and a double. Completing the accommodation is a modern shower room with WC.
Outside, you’ll have two private spaces including a screened courtyard at the front. This creates a sheltered suntrap where you can enjoy al fresco cuppas and some quiet reading time. At the rear, a bistro table and chairs overlook open countryside, where grazing sheep and horses add to the rural atmosphere. On the driveway, which you’ll share with the owner, is dedicated parking for two cars.
