I haven't been there yet... and it's been named as one of the best beaches in Wales, with a waterfall right on the beach ... adding this one to my wish list of places to go!

Just beautiful 😊
We loved this trip - wrap up warm on a cold day though as the carriages are not heated! Steam trains are the best (the kid in me can't resist adding 'Choo Choo!' )
