Brancaster has a beautiful far reaching golden sandy beach, ideal all year-round destination. Brilliant for sunny beach days with all the family, dogs too! There is a handy kiosk shop for refreshments and all-important beach games, kites and bucket and spades and a convenient large car-park just 50m from the beach. Brancaster Golf club is also beachside, if you walk left from the golf club there is an inlet where you can often see a seal or two basking in the sunshine. Be careful to check the tide tables for access to the beach as the beach road can get flooded at high tide.

History
A petrified forest can be seen at low tide (west of the golf club) remains of vegetation that looks a bit like black rubber. You may also spot an old shipwreck on the beach, the remains of SS Vina which was used by the RAF for target practice before the Normandy landing.
To the east of the village is the grass covered mounds of the National Trust Branodunum Roman settlement, which is an old Saxon Shore fort, first used to protect shipping and trade on the coast

Guestbook review: Brancaster House is a wonderful, well equipped and well located house. The range of rooms with bathroom facilities is amazing. The garden & parking space is perfect. I spent a long time trying to find 'the perfect cottage' with all our needs & this house was ideal. Walkable distance to the beach, the lovely Ship pub over the road and with a local store in short walking distance with a playground & playing field. Not too far from the Burnham Deepdale stores if further supplies are needed. The house is lovely - interesting pictures on the walls, plenty of room & storage, games cupboard and a lovely note left for us for ideas to do. Brancaster beach as ever is wonderful - the kiosk supplying a wide range of food, drink, ice cream & beach supplies is brilliant. The Ship across the road is lovely for food. Not to far for Holkham either with its fabulous beach & Hall.
Pleasant spacious house with reassuringly solid furniture. My grandson said, “This place has everything we need; a playground, the beach and a shop.” I enjoyed the buses and dinner at the Ship. The people who sell eggs in the village were lovely. Flying kites.
Lovely comfortable house for 4 adults and 2 children.Great location. Well equipped for our family. We enjoyed the house and garden and would consider visiting again. Lovely beach easy walking for us and car park next to the beach good if you have a lot of stuff to take. Pensthorpe nature reserve easy car drive and well worth a visit. Most of the time spent on the beach.
We've stayed here many times before and it never disappoints. Holkham and The Ship as well as the seals and views on Brancaster beach.
Great location, nice kitchen and dining area. Great location for beach, park and village stores. Kitchen and dining area was a great space to gather and eat.
On the whole the weather was sunny and dry, a little bit chilly when windy. We visited the beaches and had lots of lovely walks during our stay. Grandma and Grandad took advantage of the brilliant coastliner 36 bus service. I got to relive my childhood by reading most of the " biggles" book!
We loved the location of the house, the accommodation was perfect for our needs. Plenty of room and lots of nice touches around the house. Nice big table for all of us to sit comfortably around & plenty of crockery and glasses etc. We had a very nice nice stay and enjoyed all the pretty beaches and walks.
Fabulous weather during our stay, we had lovely walks on the beach and saw the seals! Thank you for allowing us to stay in your delightful home! Great location & every facility we needed. Thanks!
