Our UK Coast is a plethora of untouched wilderness and beauty stretching for thousands of miles; recently, North Norfolk and Suffolk beaches have been named as part of 20 of the best hidden UK beaches and it’s easy to see why. Lets take a look at why Brancaster & Covehithe should be on your ‘to do list’ of beaches when in East Anglia for your next staycation, or visit to your Tingdene holiday home.

Brancaster, North Norfolk

Brancaster beach is yet another of Norfolk’s glorious beaches, with miles and miles of unspoilt golden sand as far as the eye can see, plus the remains of an old shipwreck which can be seen when the tide is out. With its wide expanse of golden sands, the beach is perfect for summer sandcastles or winter wanders; even on the busiest of days there is room to find your own space and get lost in its tranquil calm. Kite surfing is a popular pastime here, maybe something new worth trying?

Covehithe, Suffolk

Covehithe is a hamlet and civil parish in the Waveney district of the English county of Suffolk, lying on the North Sea coast close to Southwold, around 7 miles south of Lowestoft. It is home to St Andrew's Church, a partly redundant Anglican church in the hamlet, recorded as a designated Grade I listed building. Part of the church is in ruins and under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust - a perfect spot to take your camera and get a gorgeous Instagram snap!
