The Hideaway Docking
Sleeps 4, from £380 to £765 per week
The Hideaway is a contemporary renovated period cottage tucked away in Docking village.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a modern shower room, making this perfect for a couple or a family. Outside there's a rear enclosed courtyard garden ideal for dining al fresco. It is conveniently located in the Docking village, set back from the road, within walking distance to a village pub, shop, thriving fish & chip shop, children's playground and fishing lake. The charming Georgian village of Burnham Market, plus the beautiful coast at Brancaster and Thornham are only 10 minutes drive away.

Guest Reviews
Great property. Much enjoyed staying there. Thank you Sowerbys!
Mrs Deadman - 24/09/2021
The Hideaway is in a convenient location, perfect for 2 people and uncluttered too! Was better than we expected and we would stay again!
The Ilott's - 02/07/2021
Even better than the images had led us to believe. We especially liked the comfort, size, location and decor. It was so comfortable and without doubt the best holiday cottage/rented accommodation we have stayed in. Simply a perfect week at the Hideaway Cottage. We will be back!
The Bond's - 23/10/2020
We're just enjoying our last night at The Hideaway. Fire lit of course !!
We have had a fantastic week in this wonderful part of the world. The cottage has been "our home" for just 7 days and it has become just that. A superbly appointed & equipped house. Cosy & just perfect in every way. A fine location too for exploring this glorious landscape.
Thanks also to all the team at Sowerby's. We really appreciate all your help and support. It's our first holiday with you but it will not be the last.
Hilary Tarleton - 09/10/2020
Please pass on our thanks to the owners of the Hideaway for creating such a wonderful cottage, we have stayed in a lot of holiday cottages over the years and this is simply superb!
Even our youngest son who has Autism said he loves the holiday house!
The Macbay's - 29/07/2019
Lovely house in a great location. Had a great birthday weekend exploring Norfolk in the sunshine! House is very well equipped for a family. Thank you very much.
The Smith's - 27/05/2019
We have thoroughly enjoyed our Easter break at The Hideaway. The cottage itself was very homely and well equipped, clean and tidy. It's in a great position for exploring our favourite places, including Holt, Burnham Market, Wells and the Dalegate Market. We hope to return soon! Thank you again.
The Jones' - 19/04/2019

The Tathams - 15/02/2019
We had a great time in the cottage! Lovely and cosy and such a blessing to have a well stocked kitchen!
Camilla, Drew, Matt and Thea - 02/01/2019
We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Hideaway. It is ideally situated and very well appointed. A much needed period of rest and respite from the rigours of everyday life! We will return to further experience the joys of what Docking and North Norfolk has to offer. Thank you so much!
The Ingham family - 29/06/2018
We have enjoyed the most relaxing holiday at The Hideaway. The cottage was very well furnished and considered touches like the children's books, DVDs etc. were a pleasant bonus. A comfy bed and couch let us chill after days exploring NE Norfolk. Docking is a great centre to venture out to the neighbouring villages and gorgeous beaches.
We will remember this holiday for years to come and will definitely return to the cottage again.
The Campbells - 02/06/2018
Great location, comfortable and stylish home from home experience. We recommend the Jolly Sailors pub for casual dining and cycling from Holkham Hall.
Natalie - 05/05/2018
It was very clean and it looked beautiful.
The living area was lovely and very easy with children.
Appleby Party - 08/04/2018
A lovely few days in the most beautiful part of the world. It has been very wet, so we have been grateful to return to a comfortable warm cottage with great facilities. Thank you!

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.
