jok 3,035 Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 Seahouses, Bamburgh, Beadnell round Beadnell bay and all the little hamlets sitting right there on the coast. Just off shore you have the Farne Islands ( round which I've dived many a time). Lindisfarne worth a trip. One of the best chippies in the land (excepting Magpie in Whitby as aforementioned) will be found in Seahouses. One of the loveliest theme pubs can be found right alongside the lifeboat station which is another place to see and whilst there chuck a few bob in the collection. Camping facilities, B&B and holiday lets are available. All in all a pretty good place to spend a few well earned days in. Jok. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm never so glad to get OUT of the countryside and into a city as when I'm driving through the f***ing fenns! And I'd rather drive 5 hours to the south west coast than one to the east! 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDHUNTING 1,817 Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 (edited) I know the NW coast extensively so I'll give you a breakdown, Liverpool to Blackpool is loads of sand and water the the colour of shit then you've got Blackpool which you'll want to avoid and the waters still the colour of shit. The water clears further north around Cumbria, mainly due to radiation from sellafield but also due to the amount of rainwater going into the sea id imagine. My advice would be to go to Cornwall Edited July 24, 2019 by JDHUNTING 2 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
