Lovely beach tucked away very much off the beaten track The beach is a treasure trove of rock pools and fossil hunting Huge grassy area for sitting and enjoying the views or having a picnic Toilets in the car park are useful There's not much mobile signal for the car park machine, but you can pay up to 24 hours after your visit which is a brilliant offering

Nice beach, good for dogs. Parked at east quantoxhead and walked 1 mile ish, lovely walk, pebbly beach, river mouth gushing through to the sea makes great stepping stone opportunities. Fossils. Toilets at kilve carpark but no other ammenities without more walking into kilve village. Maps in carpark- £1 an hour parking.

Lovely beach for dogwalking; with freshwater to paddle in just before you enter the beach. There are two ways to pay for parking; pay the council at the machine when leaving or use the café and they allow free parking to customers.
