Brean is a small village in Somerset, England, between the more well-known resorts of Weston-super-Mare and the more charming Burnham-on-Sea. As a family-friendly vacation spot, the village is known for its sandy beach, diverse shopping and drinking options, and exciting amusement park. The classic seaside resort town of Weston-super-Mare is less than 10 miles away, and it has everything from award-winning sandy beaches and donkey rides to water sports, restaurants, shops, and the Playhouse, Winter Gardens, and Grand Pier. Burnham-on-Sea is easily accessible and features seven miles of unspoiled sandy beaches, sailing, fishing, a theatre, a cinema, a swimming pool and a sports academy, gardens, biannual food and drink festivals, live music, the Guy Fawkes carnival, and a 36-hole championship golf course. The beautiful cathedral city of Wells and the scenic Cheddar Caves and Gorge can be reached in under an hour. The Avalon marshes are one of the largest lowland wetlands in the UK, a complex landscape teeming with wildlife, and Glastonbury, with its mystical connections to King Arthur, is at its heart. Exmoor National Park is a beautiful place to visit for its breathtaking coastline, cliffs, sheltered bays, and famous wild ponies.
