The secret North Devon beach that's 'just like Thailand'

It's a day trip from Bristol - but you'll have to time it right: a secluded beach that's 'like Thailand', which only appears at low tide.

North Devon reporter Becky Dickinson discovered the hidden beach that's nestling between the busy resorts of Ilfracombe and Woolacombe, where even in the height of summer, it's possible to escape the madding crowds.

Lee Bay is five miles from Woolacombe and only three miles from Ilfracombe, but feels like a remote spot beneath the South West Coast Path, and is something of a hidden treasure, in more ways than one. "For a start," wrote Becky for Devon Live, "the beach only appears for a short time each day."
