Norfolk village life is on your doorstep at this beautifully converted barn set in the sleepy village of Docking. Perfect for a multi-generational family escape (with a four-legged friend in tow), kids will love you for the games room and the enclosed suntrap terrace for evening barbecues will be an all-around hit. Ready to stretch your legs and explore? The barn is just five miles from the nearest beach. Or keep things local with a stroll to Docking’s village pub or local chippy to grab a fish supper to savour at home.

Home truths
There’s plenty of parking available for up to three cars on the home’s private driveway.
It’s worth noting that the fifth bedroom is open to the staircase and does not have a door – great for older children sharing, but it might not suit everyone.
A welcome tray and a starter pack of logs in the winter months is provided to help settle you in.
You’ll need to bring your own beach towels.
There are only two bathrooms and an additional WC at this home. If nine guests are sharing, expect some waiting around in the mornings.
