Village
Docking is an attractive central village only 3-4 miles inland from the North Norfolk Coast, making a great base to stay and explore the whole of North Norfolk. It's a traditional farming Norfolk village which boasts a village shop with post office, traditional pub and a fish and chip shop too! Its located close to Burnham Market within easy access of the coast with Brancaster to the north and Hunstanton to the west. The village also has a lovely church St Mary’s, village school and a ‘must visit’ farmers market which takes place on a Wednesday morning in the ‘Ripper Hall’ village hall
History
The village has an elevated position, in the past was nick named ‘Dry Docking’ as it had no water supply other than rainwater. In the 1760’s a single well was dug for the village providing domestic use for a farthing a bucket. The water was also transported around the village by horse and cart selling the water by the bucket.
Visit
There is such ease of access to all villages and attractions with Houghton Hall to the south and Royal Sandringham Estate and House also nearby. The superb coastline with RSBP reserves and all of the areas of outstanding natural beauty are nearby to explore. There also are lots of routes from the village for cyclists and walkers.

Great accessibility to the beaches with the dog. Visited Holme, Brancaster, Holkham & Wells and had a lovely holiday even though the weather wasn’t great.
Living in a house with an ‘upside-down’ configuration was certainly a unique experience. It permits incredible views across open fields.The high ceilings and the light and space are excellent features. The cottage is well-maintained. It is private, clean, fresh and of excellent quality. It is quiet and this alone is special. The Sowerbys team provide a highly responsive and great service.
A new, well maintained and very clean cottage which was beautifully presented on an attractive development. The upside down configuration made the most of the views across open fields and beyond. A great place to stay. We had exceptionally good weather for October and particularly enjoyed various coastal walks, a visit to nearby Houghton Hall and a trip to Walsingham on the Wells mini railway. Lots of good eateries especially Socius at Burnham Market.
What a Wonderful place this was, as Soon as we stepped into the door We knew it was going to be great, super clean super peaceful, Super luxurious, Everything was perfect watching the sunsets at night from the garden was lovely.Great base for batting around The coast too. Will definitely be back. Sowerbys team made every effort to make our holiday great. Thankyou ! Swimming in the sea at Wells and watching the sunsets at night from the Garden.
Walking from Cley to Blakeney among the Macmillan nurses, along the coastal path.They were in the middle of a marathon charity walk from Cromer to Holkham. Seeing a small flock of Glossy Ibis flying along the beach tree line at Holkham.

Many thanks for the use of your lovely property which had everything we needed. Although we have passed through Docking many times, it is the first time we have stayed. Turns out it is an ideal location for the places we go to. Our two highlights were Saturday when we walked from Cley to Blakeney with hundreds of Macmillan nurses who were doing a marathon charity walk from Cromer to Holkham. We stopped at Blakeney for an ice cream, they had another 12 miles to go!! Then Wednesday when we saw a small flock of glossy ibis flying along the treeline at Holkham Beach. Thanks again!
Beautiful house in a lovely village, very comfortable.
Highlights of the stay were the views across the fields to the sea.
Superb property, very well appointed with the very best views out of the lounge windows. Fantastic location as Docking is so convenient for everything in North Norfolk - pubs, restaurants, museums, walks, stately homes.
We had a great stay.
PS- We went to King' Lynn for the afternoon and well worth going to. The town was amazing and so full of history.
What an amazing weekend spent in an wonderful place, Our first (of Many) trips to Norfolk and we cannot wait to return! The house is beautiful and styled to perfections with lots of attention to detail.Fish and chips by the sea rounded off our trip perfectly followed by an afternoon on the beach at Wells-next-the-Sea. From the minute we got here we have felt very much at home.
A lovely weeks holiday in Norfolk, Sandringham Craft show and a day at Fakenham races were both good days out and coming home with a £7 profit too! We had a lovely stay, a very nice holiday home.

Electric Vehicle charging
Cars may only be charged if there is an EV charging point fitted at the property.
