Horsey Corner and Beach

We awoke to snow flurries - Great!!!, but thankfully it had been snowing the previous week at home so we were well prepared for cold weather - indeed we had the caravan as opposed to our trusted tent.

Once we were all up and fed - we headed for Horsey Beach, a firm favourite of ours and the dogs. You have to go 'off road' from Horsey corner, but it's well worth it as you can park at the end near the beach - no facilities though!

You can often see seals in the sea and on the beach here so take care with your dogs as they will attack other animals.
The Nelson Arms public house is not too far away on the way back to the campsite. A great pub with good food and ale all wrapped up in a pet friendly atmosphere. Always worth a visit and hasn't disappointed in the past 3 years. It's a busy pub, so book if you want to eat!


Once back at the campsite, our afternoon was fun filled for the children, who enjoyed the parks and zip wires as well as the BMX track that circles the site. We'll get to the crazy golf and other activities another day!

Wiki Info.
The coast next to the village, known as Horsey Dunes, is a major wildlife site. Grey Seals on Horsey Beach. During the months of December and January the colony heads on to the beach to give birth to seal pups. Creating a beautiful local attraction for many wildlife enthusiasts.
