Experiences


Experience matters. A stay in The Ship Hotel always offers more than a bed for the night.

The Ship Experiences

With so much natural beauty, a stay on the North Norfolk Coast will always be memorable. And we’re pleased to introduce Experience at The Ship Hotel.

The Ship Hotel at Brancaster is one of the finest places to stay on the coast. Luxurious accommodation, tasty local menus and its own carefully blended Black Diamond Gin are matched only by its fantastic location on the Norfolk Coastal path, with easy access to many of North Norfolk’s finest attractions, including the stunning Brancaster Beach.

There are more ways to enjoy this tranquil part of the UK’s coastal heritage than on foot or by car.

Brand new for 2023, we are delighted to introduce Experience at The Ship to add a little more excitement to a stay at our boutique hotel, and we have invested in electric bikes to help you explore the beauty of our part of England. And if you’re feeling a little more adventurous, then use one of our paddleboards to explore the tidal waters behind Scolt Head Island and the creeks and marshes of Brancaster Staithe and Burnham Overy Staithe.

If you’re interested in using our electric bikes or paddleboards, please let us know when you book.


Paddle Boards

The popularity of stand up paddleboarding has exploded in recent years, and we are delighted to offer our guests paddleboards to get out on the water. Complete with buoyancy aids and waterproof phone pouches, our paddleboards come fully equipped for some paddling action. If you are a complete beginner, you can get an introductory lesson from our local watersport training partners, just tell them we sent you for a special price.


Electric Bikes

Cycling round the leafy lanes exploring North Norfolk is a lot easier on one of our electric bikes!

Complete with cycle helmets, borrow an electric bike from us and increase the range you can explore without having to get back in your car. Let the fresh air build your appetite for a hearty supper and glass (or more) of our carefully blended Black Diamond Gin!
