About this property

Poppy Cottage (Docking) (2), Docking, Norfolk

Poppy Cottage is a wildlife enthusiasts delight for couples. It is a comfortably furnished terraced cottage which forms part of a conversion of an historic Victorian building. Situated just outside the village of Docking in a rural setting, you will really appreciate the big blue Norfolk skies! There is a comfortable sitting room with television and and good library of books, with a period fireplace with electric fire, and a spacious dining kitchen with table and chairs and a television with DVD. The garden is a good size and fully enclosed with a paved patio area, ideal for barbecues and sunny days.

Poppy Cottage is in an ideal location for couples who enjoy wildlife and the outdoors. Pink footed geese by their thousands are seen and heard flying directly over Poppy Cottage morning and evening en route between their feeding and roosting sites in winter, and the keen eyed will spot them feeding on the fields around Docking, which are also abundant with hares. You are only a short drive from Snettisham RSPB reserve where the 'wader spectacular' takes place when the tides and conditions are right - a truly remarkable display of clouds of birds whirling overhead. You are equally close to the north Norfolk coast, with the well known Titchwell RSPB reserve, as well as Holme Dunes Nature Reserve, a popular spot for spring and autumn migration and sea watching. At the end of your busy outdoor day, what better than to come home to a choice of bath or shower, a hassle-free cosy fire and an oh-so-comfy king-size bed.

Docking is well served with a very welcoming pub, an excellent village shop, a fish and chip shop and a doctor's surgery. The beach at Brancaster and the popular Georgian village of Burnham Market are both a short drive away, as well as Sandringham estate, and the classic Victorian seaside resort of Hunstanton.

Please note: Short breaks are available by arrangement. Please contact us on 01485 211022. Poppy Cottage is also available as a sleeps four option, with an additional bedroom.
