Seaside holidays are 'proper' holidays, fun for everyone. That first thrilling glimpse of azure blue at the journey's end ("I see the sea and the sea sees me"); scrambling with picnic baskets down to secret cove beaches; shedding clothes and authority to build fairytale castles and splash through ‘white horses’. The West Country, its coastline dotted with clean beaches washed by warm southerly rollers off the Atlantic, is world-class for surfing, bodyboarding and simple pleasures of paddling in the shallows with trousers rolled up, hand in small hand. Many beaches are Blue Flagged and lifeguarded, popular with adrenaline-seekers of all generations. Here's our selection of cottages for water babies.
