The Isle of Wight has some nice secluded beaches, i.e. Steephill Cove.

Sand Bay, just around the coast from Weston Super Mare = much nicer, if I remember correctly.

CJ is OTM. Climb over the hill north of Sandown (it's a bit of a trek but there's a pub by the monument on top) and drop down to the luvverly sandy crescent of Whitecliff Bay.

I know the pub of which the robster speaks - it's the Culverhaven, isn't it?

Can't remember the name. But it would make sense, what with being on Culver Down and all.

My parents owned a caravan in Sand Bay for many years. I can't begin to imagine how many weekends we spent there. It's pretty dull, but there is less mud than Weston.
