Brancaster holiday cottages
Life in Brancaster centres around its thriving harbour and the maritime community that has built up here. Mussels are a local speciality so ensure you have a taste during an evening meal out. Dig up sand on Brancaster Beach to create a moat and allow lapping waves to surround your sandcastle. Try your hand at sea kayaking, sailing or flying kites, and spot the remains of an old shipwreck when the tide is out. This shoreline is part of the Brancaster Estate which encompasses beach, Brancaster Staithe Harbour and the site of a Branodunum Roman Fort built during the 3rd century.
