Property code: OC-1871

This delightful barn conversion in traditional flint and brick is set next to the glorious gardens of Hindringham Hall, a fairy-tale Tudor manor surrounded by a moat. The single-storey cottage sleeps four guests, with a welcome for two canine friends, and overlooks its own, fully enclosed garden. Just 5 miles from the beautiful North Norfolk coast, the property is within 7.5 miles of the sandy beach at Wells-next-the-Sea, with other charming coastal and country villages close by.

This cosy holiday home is simply furnished in a fresh, country style, with white walls, and wooden floors. Casement windows, original beams and double doors to the garden enhance its charm. The spacious living/dining room is a lovely place to relax, with comfortable sofas and a wood burner beneath the vaulted ceiling. The neat kitchen is stocked for all your culinary needs and there are two pretty bedrooms at either end of the cottage. One is a double, the other a twin, and both have an en-suite bathroom.

Outside, the large, private garden has roses around the door and is enclosed by hedges, with patio furniture and a BBQ. There is also access to a tennis court (available on request). The magnificent gardens of Hindringham Hall include a walled kitchen garden and a Victorian Nut Walk. Picturesque Wells-next-the-Sea is a perennial family favourite with its golden sands, colourful beach huts and crabbing by the harbour. The coastal village of Blakeney (6.5 miles) is a great place to explore the rich wildlife of this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. From here, you can take a boat trip for an amazing, close-up view of the largest seal colony in England. Visit the lively market towns of Holt (7.5 miles) and Burnham Market (13 miles).

Dockings appears a quiet location adjacent to Hindringham Hall but the track passing it can be busy and a problem if you have reactive dogs. Whilst looking bright and airy in the photos, it is quite dark inside with small windows. Kitchen is small and dark with adequate equipment but the double bed is small and the bedroom dark with one small windoRead morew. Watch your knuckles on the front door when opening, very painful..... Hide
