Island House, Brancaster Staithe, Norfolk

Sitting proudly on a channel entering the breathtaking saltmarshes of Brancaster Staithe, aptly named Island House is a charming and traditional detached hideaway, perfect for sailors, adventurers, birdwatchers, or those who revel in remote living. Magnificent panoramic ever-changing views surround this idyllic and unique coastal hideaway. Island House is ideally located for exploring the magical coastline of North Norfolk.

Moody and tranquil views pour into every window, making this a peaceful and relaxing retreat at any time of year. Minimalistically and comfortably furnished, the Island House is stylishly curated taking inspiration from the surrounding coastline. A well-equipped contemporary galley kitchen features modern appliances. With plenty of worktop space available, this is the ideal for rustling up a delicious feast made using the local produce this area is famed for. Dual-aspect windows with views to the staithe enhance the experience of seaside living. A good-sized dining room provides seating for up to eight guests around a charming wooden table that overlooks the sea. A cosy sitting room with feature fireplace provides a calm sanctuary with ample comfortable seating. On chillier evenings nestle in to watch a film together, and on warmer days open up the patio doors to allow the fresh sea air to drift through. Sandy toes can be rinsed off in the shower room conveniently located near the entrance of this property.

Upstairs, four bedrooms are located. The master bedroom hosts a king-size bed, with twin beds provided by bedroom two. Bedroom three and bedroom four each offer single beds with incredible seascape views. These bedrooms are served by a family bathroom featuring a bath with hand-held shower over. Lie in bed and listen to calls from the abundance of rich native wildlife and birdlife that flocks to this area. At night, the lack of light pollution means that the huge skies appear to reach forever - perfect for stargazing.

Unenclosed green lawned gardens wrap around the property and boast direct access onto the saltmarshes. At high tide, the nearby staithe transforms in to hubbub of boats, paddleboards, walkers and seaside excitement. A low tide, revel in the feeling of remoteness that the peace brings. The coastal path runs along the back of the garden, with beautiful Brancaster beach reachable within a 30-minute walk. The nearby local pub, The Jolly Sailors, is the hub of the community. Just a short walk away, this charming place offers delicious food to eat in or takeaway.

A magical spot

What a find. Just the perfect blend of isolated privacy and easy access to the life and action of the harbour. It's a simple house, a little careworn in places, but it oozes charm and we were instantly at home. Gorgeous views from almost every window and as soon as you step out of the door. We are already planning our return.

Island House

The hotplate is quite an effort to use we have stayed at Island House twice since the surge and I have only got round to using it once when I needed to parboil some samphire! I see in the Guest Book that someone found the oven complicated too - I have never tried it. But these are only minor quibbles - we have been now 6 times to Island House and we love it!

Beds

The beds were not comfortable. It might be an idea to have one double bed in one of the larger bedrooms.

It was cold

I regularly stay in north Norfolk and this was a chilly house- and v basic- although there was nothing missing as such it felt very sparse - and the heaters took about 3 days to warm up the house. Just didn't feel very homely.
