UK break suggestions - not camping or a lodge, where I have to cook.

[miserableandworried]

I’m after a short break but I’m being quite fussy, and not sure if it’s doable.

Id like to be really close to a beach, but not over crowded. I don’t want to cook or do any washing up, so good restaurants near by. Maybe some lively places to go at night a for a drink.

Does such a place exist?

You will probably find a place with good restaurants and night life will also be crowded

unless you are thinking after school summer holidays

hmmmm I can deal with overcrowding I think. As long it’s not single file streets and thousands of people trying get in and out.

Whereabouts?
South coast, Yorkshire, Scotland?

Whitby, Seahouses, Bamburgh, North Berwick, St Andrews, The Witterings, Brighton, Bournemouth, Woolacombe

Honestly, anywhere! I’m not tied to a certain coast

Aberystwyth in a hotel?

Last August we went to Wells next the sea in Norfolk which was delightful. Plenty of people about but not crowded. We hired a cottage but you don’t have to stay in and cook!
