About this property

The Brancaster - a self catering cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

The Brancaster enjoys an excellent position just a two‑minute walk from Blakeney Quay, offering an ideal base for exploring this highly sought-after North Norfolk village. With the added benefit of a private garden for outdoor relaxation and a dedicated parking space, it combines convenience with comfort.

Inside, the cottage feels light and spacious compared to many traditional properties, and is well furnished and equipped throughout, providing everything needed for an easy and enjoyable stay.

The accommodation is arranged over one level, beginning with a welcoming entrance hall leading into a generous open-plan living space. The sitting area, complete with a cosy log burner, flows seamlessly into a dining area and a fitted kitchen with appliances—perfect for both relaxing and socialising.

There are two comfortable bedrooms - one double and one twin, offering flexible sleeping arrangements, along with a family bathroom and a separate shower room off the twin room — ideal for couples or small families.

Blakeney is one of North Norfolk's most desirable coastal destinations, offering a wonderful range of amenities within walking distance. Enjoy local pubs serving food, a mini supermarket, deli, fishmongers, and a selection of independent shops.

The charming harbour is just moments away, from where you can enjoy scenic coastal walks, including routes to the famous seal colony at Blakeney Point — making this a perfect location for nature lovers and coastal getaways.

Two dogs are welcome and the garden is secure for their enjoyment.

Had a lovely week at the Brancaster. Ideally located in Blakeney Quay for dog walking, pub walks and other lovely places to visit. House was spacious and well equipped with very comfy beds. Sitting room carpet needs replacing and the armchairs need to be cleaned, but we were outside most of the time. New BBQ and good size table and chairs in garden.

Hello Alex Thank you very much for taking the time to review The Brancaster. All feedback is most welcome and helps us to understand your experience and maintain a high standard. I will certainly pass your comments regarding the carpet and armchair on to the property manager. In the meantime I'm pleased to hear you enjoyed space offered inside and out, the comfy beds and new BBQ. It sounds like you took advantage of the weather to sit in the spacious private garden and enjoyed exploring the lovely coastal village. We hope to see you again soon.
