With breathtaking views in an area of outstanding natural beauty, the lovely sandy beach at Bigbury-on-Sea, Devon, is a true gem. The shallow waters make it a perfect family-friendly beach. We saw many people enjoying their paddle boards and kayaks here as well. At low tide, you can walk across the sands to Burgh Island and enjoy a drink outside the Pilchard Inn. You should also see the purpose-built Sea Tractor, which runs between Burgh Island and Bigbury Beach. There is plenty of parking and toilets available in the nearby car parks. Note that our phones occasionally struggled to pick up a signal.
This place is absolutely stunning. We were pleasantly surprised to discover such a picturesque beach in England. It's definitely worth a visit. Additionally, there is a nearby cafe and a large car park available for Β£6 all day, with free access for National Trust members.
What a magnificent day we had at Mothecombe beach! As many have mentioned, there is a parking fee of Β£5 to park in the nearby field, but there is ample space available. The walk from the car park to the beach takes roughly 5-10 minutes and is a bit steep, but there are no steps to navigate. It's worth noting that there are no facilities on the beach itself, so it's advisable to stop at the School House near the car park or bring your own supplies. However, the sandy beach is simply delightful when the tide is out, and the shallow water is perfect for children to enjoy their first proper swim in the sea. We also saw many people paddleboarding, which added to the already great atmosphere of the beach. While it wasn't overly crowded, there was a pleasant buzz of activity.

This idyllic spot boasts a picturesque location, where we strolled along the Southwest Foot path, basking in the pleasant November climate. The serene sea was tranquil and the warm sun shone brightly, offering us breathtaking vistas that are simply awe-inspiring. We were thoroughly enchanted by the beauty of this place and can't wait to come back for more. π
We recently stayed at the hotel for three nights and it was absolutely delightful. Our room balcony offered a stunning view of the cove, and we were equally treated to breathtaking views from the restaurant. The staff provided exceptional service, being incredibly attentive. Each night, we were pleasantly surprised with a unique menu, and every meal we enjoyed was truly outstanding.
