POCKTHORPE is a small rural hamlet surrounded by rolling, open countryside situated between Fakenham and King’s Lynn.

The surrounding area is predominantly rural with Houghton Hall, a Palladian stately home set in 1000 acres of park and farmland, just to the north. The hamlet lies just to the south of the A148 which provides easy access into the Hanseatic port and medieval market town of King’s Lynn, which offers a comprehensive range of shops and facilities as well as a mainline railway line to London King’s Cross (97 mins).
