BRANCASTER
Situated within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it’s easy to see why Brancaster is one of the most sought after villages on the north Norfolk coast with its heritage coastline and fine sandy beaches. It’s a lively village all year round, popular for sailing and watersports, and with a thriving fishing community. Justly famous for its mussels, seafood from Brancaster can be found in many of the local shops and restaurants, as well as much further afield. The village has a very good public house, The Ship, and there is also a village hall, a shop and a club, and for its young residents, a primary school and play area. The Royal West Norfolk Golf Club is at Brancaster with its fine links course which overlooks the stunning, sandy beach. Brancaster Beach is home to the shipwreck of the SS Vina, visible from the coast. Built in 1894 she spent her working life travelling the Baltic Trade routes before she was requisitioned for the war effort in 1940, when she was used as target practice by the RAF prior to the Normandy landing. On the outskirts of the village is the site of a Roman fort, Branodunum, one of 11 forts built along the south and east coasts to control shipping and trade in the 3rd century. Nearby Barrow Common is also wonderful to explore, with superb walks, a diverse range of plants and wildlife, and fantastic elevated views of the coast. Burnham Market is about 4 miles away with its wide range of interesting shops, boutiques and restaurants, and for supermarkets and other amenities, Hunstanton and Wells-next the-Sea are both within 20 minutes’ drive. For when you don’t want to drive, the regular Coastliner bus will take you to King’s Lynn in the west, and along the coast eastwards to Wells-next-the-Sea, perfect for a day of exploring!
