A lovely quiet, secluded beach with “a small private bay” to the right.

2012 September: We visited the beach several times. Care needed to be taken as a recent storm had washed some of the road away. Leave the car park and walk back a few metres, then take the RIGHT path down the hill. The storm and some recent works had made this track very difficult. On reaching the main beach turn to look right, you will see the adjoining shingle cove behind a rocky outcrop. This can be reached by wading through waist-deep clear water. Past the outcrop there is an area where you can bare all and enjoy. We took plenty of supplies for the day and enjoyed totally unspoiled lunches and fantastically ‘dreamy’ afternoons. Hope it remains the same.

2015 June: Fantastic small beach! 100% nudists!
