Star Cottage Docking
Sleeps 3, from £400 to £755 per week
Star Cottage is a gorgeous bijou period cottage which has been imaginatively converted combining contemporary furnishings with stripped wooden floorboards and exposed brickwork. This charming cottage is perfect for a romantic break for two, or for a small family, with a beautifully presented open plan living area and superb kitchen downstairs. A feature spiral staircase leads to the lovely master double bedroom, a contemporary shower room and a cosy single room. Outside there's a small fully enclosed paved garden with a gate leading to the private off-street parking space for one car. It's conveniently located in the heart of Docking village within walking distance of a pub, village shop, fish & chip shop, playground and fishing lake. It is within 10 minutes drive of the beautiful coast at Brancaster or Thornham and also the popular Georgian village of Burnham Market.
Please be aware that the homeowner does not allow children under the age of 3 due to the very steep spiral staircase.

Docking
Location
All roads in North Norfolk seem to lead to Docking. It's a busy village with an excellent small supermarket and post office, a fish and chip shop, village pub, a large village playing field, tennis court and bowling green. It also has its own weekly village market every Wednesday morning at The Ripper Hall between 9am and 1pm, where a great selection of local produce is available. On Mondays freshly cooked wood-fired pizzas are available from Bordolis outside Ripper Hall - delicious! Docking also has its own coarse fishing lake that is available on a day ticket basis.
The village is perfectly placed for the North Norfolk Coast and its long, fine sandy beaches. Brancaster and The Royal West Norfolk Golf Club are about five miles away. There are two golf courses in Hunstanton, which is less than eight miles away. The Titchwell Bird Reserve, home to terns and waders is close by. The ultra fashionable Georgian village of Burnham Market, Sandringham and the market towns of Fakenham and King's Lynn are also nearby.
