Is the beach private or do you end up with hundreds of people walking pass from about the 5 caravan parks up the road?
I'm not sure the UK has private beaches, not on the coast. Private access possibly, so may not be completely private at low tide.

Based on slipway and beach I'd have to say yes. Based on all the grockles wandering to and fro from Tenby and Saundersfoot though my garden, I'd have to say I'll think about it.
The coast path doesn't cross the property, except where it crosses the top of the driveway, out of sight of the house.

The beach isn't private below the high water mark, so in theory you could, at low tide, have people coming around from the next bay.

Well in that case, it'd be rude not to, no oh wait, what about the sunsets! (desperately trying to find a reason to back out)

Don’t hear them in bawtry. More worry are the trains but it’s far enough away from that. Blaxton is where I’d worry. Still it’s very low traffic at the moment

If you go north of blaxton see a lot of green and blue waterways. Walk a lot around there hardly notice the planes. Still I suppose it’s worth checking out. Shame the vulcan no longer flies frown


This is nice too for 650 but it’s in a busy road even if set back

Still prefer the one above in the countryside for 1.1 mainly for the garage but being 3 feet under water every ten years is putting me off. ( don’t know that it is but it probably is)


Not bad either

From the satellite image there appears to be only four aircraft - two wee cessnas, one other wee thing and an old prop plane like a Herald - so it looks like a quiet enough airfield. You might 8 or 9 commercial jet flights in/out daily, and not much before lunchtime

It’s the best airport in the Uk

nobody uses it. Security queues what’s that. I can see it increasing though. It lost a lot of flights a few years ago when two carriers pulled out due to increase in ground rent or something.

Couple of flights a day to Poland. Is about all. If you click on that link and map then click satellite there isn’t a single jet on the tarmac anywhere

But who knows in future,

I'm not sure they're comparable. Southend is an alternate for London City, for a start. When the weather makes London City a bit dicey, a lot of traffic goes there.

Without looking at the exact demographics, they number of people with disposable income living within reasonable distance of Southend is also probably a lot higher. Turnip fields don't go on holiday to Benidorm.

Flybe has just closed their base in Doncaster, and looking at the next few days for flights, it does seem like one or two Tui sun destinations and half a dozen Wizz air going to Eastern Europe.

You'd expect that to pick up a bit over the summer, but there's certainly no business traffic out of there. Nothing to connect to the larger Europe hubs like AMS or CDG either.

TUI are expanding next year at Doncaster with more flights and destinations. - https://www.insidermedia.com/news/yorkshire/tui-ex...

"More than 1.4 million passengers are expected to travel through DSA this financial year, representing its busiest year since opening in 2005 and more than doubling in size since 2013/14. "

This plan might still happen - http://www.travelweekly.co.uk/articles/300453/donc...

Or they could sell it all for a new housing estate.

That's pretty ambitious, a ten fold increase in passenger numbers in 30 years.
