Brancaster Cottages
The small villages of Brancaster Waithe and Burnham Deepdale combine to form the village of Brancaster. Like many towns in this region, Brancaster has an off-the-beaten track feel but is actually within a close distance of major East England towns such as Norwich and Kings Lynn. Brancaster cottages are available for rent from, Cottages 4 You which is featured below.
Brancaster is set on the protected northern coast of
Norfolk which consists of salt marshes, sandy beaches and mud flats. A rich selection of bird and plant species flourish in these parts and are protected by nature reserves like the ones at Titchwell and Holme.
The strong coastal winds are well-suited to activities such as Wind Surfing and sailing while The Royal West Norfolk Golf Course provides a real challenge to even the most skilled of golfers. The region is also ideal for ramblers and cyclists who are keen to explore local attractions like Royal Sandringham Estate and Holkham Hall which are both nearby.
The Romans had a settlement in Brancaster and the Saxons built forts along the nearby coast. Sadly nothing remains of what was clearly an eventful past. Now, the only major historically significant landmark is the Church of Burnham Deepdale St Mary which is one of the few remaining round tower churches in England.
