A careful drive just past Bridgwater will take you to this hidden gem of a beach.

It is the weekend and my wifes birthday is imminent. Having informed me where I was going to be driving I was intrigued. A waterfall? Not many public visiting? Sounds great!

Arriving in the camping site (Home Park Holiday Centre) we parked up and paid the £2 day charge. This was some of the journey down, have to mention steepness here, take sturdy shoes.

I hope you enjoy the images:

The uniform stones in lines were unknown to me. We guessed they were fishing traps. I have since found out they are medieval fishing traps and a possible jetty.

Does not look safe..

One other word of warning; there are signs to beware of imminent rockfalls, have fun out there and thank you for reading.
