Beach is outstanding and White Horse pub a great addition to the village, look out for TV personalities who frequent it. · via Google [Dave Kingston](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/114090319904407814384/reviews) ★★★★★ Took footpath down from manor farm, lovely beach. Nice rock pools. Lifeguards on duty ( until end of this week apparently as of 1st sept). RAF jets training overhead. About a mile maybe to Cromer pier - a nice walk along the beach.

Dog friendly and beautiful sand. Our dog Otis loved it. Short walk down a steep slope to get there from the car park, which is free after 6pm. Very close to Will's Plaice the local fish and chip shop. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x47d74325a21c55e7:0xe09bf796300a1976!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) People say this beach is beautiful, clean, and features both sandy and rocky areas with rock pools.
