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.

A fantastic location. The house was very well equipped. It was safe for the children (aged 7 and 10) on our dog. All information was well explained and accurate. We all LOVED it. The sunny weather helped when playing in the garden. The children and their dads swan in the sea after a great walk.
The bottle of wine on the kitchen table was a lovely touch! The bedrooms were perfect. Everything was well appointed, clean and all 9 of us loved the accessibility to the beach and the restaurant, the Ship. A brilliant weekend!
We enjoyed staying at Market Lane House. It was a very comfortable and cosy family home. It’s a great location and very quiet. : It is a very easy house, well equipped and close to all amenities. We had a few great walks to the beach and delicious suppers at The Ship. Short drive to Thornham and Burnham Market for shopping.
Well set up for multiple families. Great garden space, close to beach and amenities.Shared spaces were lovely
We had a wonderful time. The house is perfect for a group holiday. It is quiet and conveniently situated for Brancaster beach and exploring the coastline.
A great house for a family break. We had a wonderful time. We would definitely book this property again. Comfortable, spacious, quiet location. We had a great stay. A very lovely house to relax in. The property was comfortable and met all our needs. It was easy to keep clean and tidy. Great to have a covered porch area for all the shoes and boots particularly as the weather was not great. A wonderful house for a family get together and we would definitely book it again.
Market Lane House is ideal for multi generational holidays. Great having a seperate room for the children and a lovely comfortable lounge for the grownups. The garden was safe for dogs and children alike. Perfect location for a walk to the beach or coastal path. The village shop was a huge hit for morning papers milk bread etc. Would definitely stay here again. We enjoyed the location/position of the house being set back off the main road it was lovely and peaceful. The village shop was very useful and well stocked. My grandchildren loved the fact they could go to the park on their own ( an adult did supervise crossing the road ! ) The main thing was we were able to walk to the beach and only needed to take one car loaded with picnic, paddle boards, surf boards and all the required beach paraphernalia. The beach car park is now £10 per day ! Very easy access to the coastal path to.
Market Lane house is just lovely in every way, a pleasure to stay as always.
A lovely big house in a very good location. Brancaster is a fabulous place to spend a holiday, and the house was very comfortable and well equipped. We were a large party and there was ample room for us all! We had come away with the family (of three generations) to spend some quality time together to celebrate my birthday and New Year’s Eve.. It was lovely to be able to do this, with our grandchildren and dogs included and spend time walking on the beautiful beaches and then playing games in the warmth of the house in the lovely cosy comfortable sitting room.
We stayed at Market Lane House, Brancaster over Christmas and it was a lovely treat. To have a dog friendly large cottage with an enclosed garden and so close to the beach was perfect. To be expected it was a bit creaky and draughty in places, and we had no fire wood, but otherwise we had everything we needed. We even arrived to a fully decorated Christmas tree. Thank you! Location, enclosed garden, Christmas tree, welcome pack, clear instructions, well decorated and stocked with comfortable furniture.
Lovely house in a great setting away from the main road in Brancaster. The house is well equipped and very comfortable , with the addition of Wi-Fi and even Sky tv, which was brilliant for entertainment for our 4 grandsons ages ranging from 2 to 7. All the family loved their stay. It was great to be able to close the gate and the property be secure for the children and the dog.
We all had a lovely holiday at Market Lane House. We had everything we needed. We all had plenty of room to move about and the lounge was well equipped for us all to be together. The bedrooms were very light and airy and the beds very comfy. Also the kitchen was the same. The garden was a good size for our little 2 year old and dogs to run around in.
Good sized homely house in a lovely village within walking distance of the beach
This is a beautiful house, very private and in a perfect location. Great position for exploring the area. Very homely and comfortable for a family holiday. Brancaster beach is a perfect place for a dog walk and blow the cobwebs off. White horse in Brancaster Staithe was a great find for a quality fishy lunch on the veranda.
The house is great. Down a quiet road. School children opposite but that didn't bother us. nice big garden. Close to a good pub. close to the beach, comfortable beds and living quarters. Loved all the various paintings too.
