A beach in South Devon, just a couple of hours from Bristol, has been likened to the Amalfi Coast while also being crowned the 'best beach in the UK'. Condé Nast Traveller magazine awarded the top spot in its list to Blackpool Sands - an idyllic beach located in a sheltered bay and surrounded by cliffs.
It's already a popular destination for families, swimmers and those looking for an ideal place to sunbathe. Condé Nast Traveller has also described the beach as being "almost reminiscent of the Amalfi Coast", DevonLive reports. In addition to its clear blue waters - where you'll no doubt spot many a swimmer, kayak and paddleboard - the beach also boasts a number of amenities, including showers, changing rooms and a beachside cafe.
Blackpool Sands sits close to the popular tourist town of Dartmouth and is named after the village of Blackpool nearby. Not to be confused with the Northern seaside resort on the West coast of England, Devon's Blackpool Sands is a Blue Flag beach and has even won awards for its cleanliness in the past.
