Manor Farm is a substantial, lovingly refurbished holiday home for family and friends. On the north Norfolk coast in the charming village of Brancaster, peacefully secluded up a private drive, the house offers a perfect base for a holiday as active or as relaxed as you prefer.

Large private gardens include access to a shared swimming pool. The golf course, the coastal footpath, and the wide expanses of the beach are a short walk away through salt marshes and dunes famous for their birdlife. Just up the road, the harbour at Brancaster Staithe has excellent facilities for sailing and water sports.

Rich in comfort and character, Manor Farm is over 250 years old, and has recently been modernised and fully furnished to a high standard throughout. Large groups have the use of 8 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. In the off-season, part of the house can be closed off to take parties of 4.

Only ever on sunny August weekends and Bank Holidays (see photo) Turn left and a 10 minute walk brings you to where the seals, just inland, bask on the marsh and where children can dangle bits of bacon to catch crabs in the creeks. The idle needn't walk anywhere beyond where they choose to dump their picnics and pitch camp. Turn right and walk away from where many people bunch and you will have swathes of deserted sand for your cricket or sandcastles. The very tidal sea leaves lagoons where children can safely splash, and at low tide the ship wreck is visible with its barnacle covered bilges and superstructure used for wartime target practise. But don't dally. The tide turns quickly and loiterers can find themselves wading back through the inrushing sea.
