Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
We're an island. Why's it so hard to find a tiny holiday cottage by the sea for a few days?
Where would you recommend for early March, not more than 5 hours drive from London? I'm looking for something quirky and comfortable to just look at the sea and be quiet.

That's a bit more than a 5 hour drive. I did the Giant's Causeway a few years ago. I still have a desire/plan to drive myself around Ireland when I have time and money.

Sw is the only way op lol"
I have spent this week in March in Lyme Regis for the last 15 years. The house I love (not mine) has been sold and I feel I should take it as a sign to go elsewhere and break my habits. But, I do love the SW and the coastline.

Both are on the possible list. All the cottages I have looked at aren't available for the dates I need.

So, try around Looe. Portwrinkle is nice"

There's a place called Seahouses? If it has seahouses it could be perfect nominative determinism. Thank you.

Isle of Mann is beautiful if a bit old fashioned. Fantastic scenery, lovely coastline and great castles.
Good food and pubs too.
Weather in March might be iffy but I think that's pretty similar for most of the UK.

Ignore them. Port Erin and Port St Mary's are lovely. The castle in Peel is fantastic and we saw seals in the water near there.
The ice cream is amazing and the whole island is really easy to negotiate.

Have you ever been to Isles Of Scilly? Lots of sea to look at
Ditch the car. Take the train to Exeter then SkyTrain (little plane) over. Or take the Cornish Riviera Express (sleeper train) to Penzance then the Scillonian ferry (aka the vomit ferry ) |

If you're an animal lover, Spring in the New Forest is lovely. It's the time of year the babes are born - foals, both horse and donkey, on wobbly legs with flicky little tails and gorgeous little calves who chase each other around. Plus, all the wildflowers start to show and the birds come back. There are touristy parts, wild parts, witches villages and right on the coast, a mile and a bit from The Isle of Wight. |

My original plan to deal with my change of location was to go abroad but I've been having odd anxiety attacks do decided it was safer to stay in the UK.
If I had someone to go away with I might have made a different decision.

Get a flight to Scotland... The far north.
There's lovley places out that way around Aberdeen/Inverness... and is super quiet, you hear the silence, the air smells like difference between tap water and Evian, inky inky inky black sky at night.
You'd be there in under 5 hours and £30quid on a plane from london. |

I recommend Seahouses also, plenty of lovely cottages and holidays homes... and a lovely (walk for miles) beach.

"Don't go coastal tonight..it's bloody windy out there"
Nah, it’s amazing - the power of nature is awesome.
I’m biased, but I vote for Pembrokeshire. It’s a very beautiful area. There’s gorgeous beaches and a real sense of being at one with nature in that area.
The Gower is great too. Rhosilli is one of the most beautiful beaches anywhere in the world imo.
Both can be done within five hours from
London.

"Don't go coastal tonight..it's bloody windy out there
Nah, it’s amazing - the power of nature is awesome.
I’m biased, but I vote for Pembrokeshire. It’s a very beautiful area. There’s gorgeous beaches and a real sense of being at one with nature in that area.
The Gower is great too. Rhosilli is one of the most beautiful beaches anywhere in the world imo.
Both can be done within five hours from
London.

I've Pm'd you with some suggestions along similar lines OP  |

I did the same before I read this. I still get bowled over by the landscapes around me and love it when people come to enjoy them.
We should work for the tourist board . |

"We're an island. Why's it so hard to find a tiny holiday cottage by the sea for a few days?
Where would you recommend for early March, not more than 5 hours drive from London? I'm looking for something quirky and comfortable to just look at the sea and be quiet.

Try North Devon, lovely coastline, you’ve got Lynton and Lynmouth. Very woofer friendly too if you have dogs xx |

"Thanks for all your suggestions.
I've decided that I can't forego Devon just yet so off to Torquay.
Anyone FAF? "
You could try Morfa Dyffryn beach in Wales, not far from me. It's between Barmouth and Harlech...its a nudist beach too.
And yes |

Is that where Tame is? Ask him to take you on a drive reversing down all the country roads. |

I suspect would rather reverse over me than have me in his vehicle.
