M5 Junction 21 Sand point dog-friendly beach near Weston, Somerset

Description
This can be either a beach walk, or a trail through the adjacent nature reserve. The beach itself is large and generally deserted, and there is also a path - running parallel to the lane - which stretches for miles.
There is also plenty of space in the nature reserve, and you may be able to spot the site of a motte and bailey castle, or the remains of Thomas a Becket's Priory, or even a Neolithic barrow.
