Docking perfectly placed for trips to a variety of places. We know the area well but had not visited the walled garden at Holkham before. Quite a place.! Cottage is very comfortable and well equipped. Would certainly be interested in a return trip.

This is our 3rd time spending a week's holiday at Hollyhocks Cottage in Docking. We were very happy with the accommodation and will be visiting again.
