You should know

Smack on the coast path and a stroll from glorious Brancaster beach, this 18th-century inn reopened in May 2025 following a stylish refurbishment by Siobhan and Caitriona Peyton, who also own Sculthorpe Mill near Fakenham. It's a cosy bolthole and a fun place to be after a day on the beach – come for Norfolk ales, modern British pub food, quirky boutique rooms and a very relaxed vibe.
