About this cottage rental
Located in the sought-after village of Brancaster, Driftwood Cottage is a wonderful semi-detached modern cottage within walking distance of the excellent village pub and the beautiful, expansive sandy beach. Beautifully presented and offering open-plan living, this hideaway is well-equipped to deliver a fantastic Norfolk holiday for families or friends at any time of year.
Wonderfully light and airy, the ground floor is flooded with natural light from the triple aspect windows. Underfloor heating adds extra warmth during chillier months, making you feel right at home. The contemporary style kitchen features a convenient breakfast bar, with a charming dining area for four situated just beyond. Comfortable sofas in the sitting area are appointed to enjoy the benefits of ambient light and warmth from the wood burning stove, making it a lovely spot to hunker down to watch a film on the Smart television. On sunny days, floor to ceiling bi-fold doors open up onto the patio and garden to welcome the outside in, allowing the fresh Norfolk air to drift through. Upstairs on the first floor, two inviting bedrooms are presented. The en-suite master bedroom hosts a double bed, with a king size zip and link bed (that can be made into twin beds on request) offered by bedroom two. A shower room is also located on this floor.
The outside space at Driftwood Cottage has been perfectly designed for making the most of al fresco dining and barbecuing. The rear garden is fully enclosed with outdoor dining furniture presented on the patio. The raised lawn is perfect for sharing a picnic made from the areas delicious local produce. Parking is at the front and is shared with the adjoining Blossom Cottage.
The Sailing Club at Brancaster Staithe is approximately one mile away, and the bustling Georgian village of Burnham Market, offering fabulous shopping and eateries, is approximately four miles away. Brancaster Stores and Post Office houses a brilliant deli and coffee shop, as well as stocking plenty of every day goods. Brancaster Village Hall hosts Bar 71 where good times, drinks, friends and fun are served. It is the social heart of Brancaster village offering a licenced, family friendly bar with the cheapest drinks along the coast, and a calendar of monthly events including live music, discos, quiz nights, bingo, skittles and poker tournaments. Adjacent is five acres of playing fields, including two full size goals, a children's playground along with equipment designed to help coordination and balance, and a family area with picnic tables. There are also new tennis courts. Brancaster offers something for everyone!

The cottage was as shown on the listing. Bright, airy and comfortable we would rent it again. The location was wonderful for exploring the beaches, conservation areas and delightful surrounding small villages.
There were a few maintenance issues which were quickly rectified when we contacted Norfolk Hideaways, the rental company. On arrival, the lawn was in need of cutting, there was no hand soap in any of the bathrooms, tiny drop of dish detergent and all the clothespins were broken. Living room sofas need to be replaced or cleaned.
Would I rent it again? absolutely!

This was a lovely little cottage that was in very nice condition and great for a stay of a family of 4. Conveniently situated with a lovely deli and playground over the road and very near beach at brancaster and other amenities. All in all a great stay!

We really enjoyed our weekend break at Driftwood, the property was very clean. Good location for coastal path walks. We would definitely return.

The location of Driftwood Cottage was excellent for our stay with our 7 year old granddaughter. On arrival we were horrified to find the down stairs area infested with flies.I visited local shops to try to purchase fly spray, though I visted the local supermarkets and back to Hunstanton shops all had sold out! I contacted Norfolk Hideaways first thing Saturday morning and they told me they had a stock of fly spray purchased online. I was surprised to find I had to pay them for this spray, but it soon had the desired affect and we was able to control the problem for the rest of the week. Another issue was the poor standard of cleaning.2 of the toilets were soiled and squashed dead flies on the floor. Future guests should be aware the bedrooms are very small, only space to walk sideways around the beds. Downstairs in contrast was very spacious and well presented. Despite our problems we would recommend Driftwood cottage to others as long as they were aware of the very small bedrooms.
