This is a great spot for walking, with fantastic coastal scenery and a lovely patchwork of fields leading up to the moorland above. Coastal walks are usually one way. This one is a rare circular route, with a pub half way round - perfect.

I did this walk yesterday with my wife. The views were beautiful. Make sure you go prepared with proper footwear. We did it in February and the path was very muddy, there are also a lot of rocks to clamber over at various points. Although the route may not be too long it does take some time to do, so make sure you give yourself plenty of time! It was dark by the time we reached the Tinners Arms, so we got a taxi back to the start. Enjoy!

It's a nice walk indeed. And the length may well be somewhat inaccurate. The reasons are simple: distance is calculated as a straight line between the waypoints. If you look at the coastal path between waypoints 2 and 3 it's hardly straight (alas, which coastal path is these days?). Hence the difference in what the machine calculates and what the distance actually is. See also our FAQ: http://www.carfreewalks.org/content/faq.html

We did this walk today (19/04/2015) but it wasn't quite as described. The walk from the road to the coast path was 1.13 miles, the section along the coast was about 3.08 miles and the stretch back through the fields was 1.7 miles thats a total of 5.91 miles.
