Sanderlings

Brancaster sits on Norfolk's north coast, a quiet village with direct access to shingle beach and salt marsh. The Branodunum Roman Fort lies just inland, a reminder of the area's deeper history. Sanderlings is a substantial property designed for groups—ten guests spread across five bedrooms and five bathrooms, with the main house and a separate annexe connected by an accessibility lift. All bedrooms have en-suites; the annexe works as self-contained accommodation if your party wants flexibility.

The main house opens to a veranda and garden on the ground floor, where you'll find four bedrooms. Upstairs, the living spaces are open-plan: a sitting room with woodburner and smart TV, a kitchen with electric cooking, and dining area, all flowing together. The annexe mirrors this layout on one floor, with its own kitchen and living space. Essentials are covered—electricity, heating, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi—plus the wood burner is stocked to start. Parking fits six cars; the garden has a barbecue and seating. One well-behaved dog stays free. Smoking is not permitted.

This setup suits multi-generational holidays, groups of friends, or anyone needing space without the formality of a hotel. The combination of coastal location, accessibility features and the split between main house and annexe means most party configurations work here.
