THERE is a beach in the UK that people say feels more like being abroad – but you will have to look at it from a distance.
Carnewas and Bedruthan Steps beach in Cornwall has been praised as looking like paradise.
The only catch? It’s currently closed to the public.
Due to the risk of rockfall, and damage to the stairs that lead to the beach, it has been closed since
Luke, who is known as adventureswith.luke, said on his social media: “A stairway to paradise. Can you believe this is in the UK?”
In the footage, Luke filmed himself at the top of the cliff before panning the camera down to showcase the views of the sandy beach.
The video has been watched thousands of times, with users in the comments describing the beach as “amazing”, while others couldn’t believe it was in the UK.
And Luke isn’t the only holidaymaker on TikTok who has been praising the beach.
Jennny (@alievskaya.uk) also visited the beach earlier this year and said it was a “must-visit coastal location in England“.
Holidaymakers have also been raving about the beach on Tripadvisor.
One added: “Stunning views of beautiful coast and countryside.”
Someone else wrote: “An absolutely beautiful walk across the cliffs, the views were outstanding.”
Access to the beach has been closed off since 2019 after a landslide caused some of the steps to topple.
Holidaymakers have been advised against finding alternative routes onto the sandy beach by the National Trust and RNLI.
But there are other beaches in the area that holidaymakers can visit like Pentire Steps Beach.
This sandy cove is nestled between Padstow and Newquay, but access isn’t for the faint-hearted as it requires a climb down via a footpath.
Other nearby activities include surfing lessons, kayaking lessons, and cave and cliff coasteering lessons.
The Isles of Scilly in Cornwall have sandy beaches, peaceful waters, and exotic wildlife.
Meanwhile, this little-known beach has been voted the best in the UK.
