Lower Marsh Farm has its own private shingle river beach which is only available to guests staying with us. Perfect walking for dogs, and a great adventure for children with plenty of treasures to find (look for crabs under rocks, collect a selection of shells, find sea glass and go for a paddle). Enjoy some quiet time watching the waves, birds and occasional boat passing by.
The river is tidal here. When it is high tide, and for a couple of hours either side, swimming, kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding is great fun You are most welcome to bring your kayaks and boards (we can normally help transport these to the river frontage if needed which is approximately 300 metres from your accommodation) as we do not have any available for use. You can also hire from Sea Moor Outdoors
When it is low tide, the mudflats are exposed. These host a good array of birds that move in to feed while the tide is out, these commonly include Heron, Egret, Curlew, Snipe, Avocet, Godwit and even once a Glossy Ibis moved in for a few weeks.
You can walk along the river frontage (except when the tide is fully in) and further around towards Cargreen. Some parts of this route are slippery with seaweed and wellies are a good idea!
