The Which? summary of the top-rated destination said: “The former 2019 winner is back on top thanks to its five-star beach.

“This glorious stretch of golden sand runs for three miles, backed by a vast, tussock dune system and dominated by the epic Bamburgh castle.

“The beach is big enough that it’s rarely crowded, which may suit those looking to socially distance this summer.

“The bracing wind off the North Sea also helps to keep mass tourism at bay and the beach pristine and free of litter.

“This is the British seaside at its low-key best: nothing to do here except walk, run, let the dog off the lead, or sit behind a windbreak with a Thermos and watch the waves roll in.”
