For another great day out, visit Horsey Gap (National Trust) where you can walk on the sand dunes and see the seals and pups on the beach (November to February). Beach 3 miles. Two pubs within walking distance which serve great pub food and craft beers. Winbirri Vinyard is 35 mins drive, offering tours and tasting, or if beer is more your thing check out Woodfords and The Redwell Brewing and tap room.
