Brean Sands Number of views as of 8th March 2018 = 575. Brean Sands is a 7 mile stretch of beach between Brean Down (south of Weston-Super-Mare) and Burnham-on-Sea, in the county of Somerset, England.

Brean Down, Steep Holm & Flat Holm Number of views as of 18th January 2018 = 440. Brean Down, between Weston-super-Mare and Burnham-on-Sea (Somerset, England) is a great place for 360 degree views of the Bristol Channel, the Somerset Levels, the Mendip and Quantock Hills and South Wales.

The trees that survive life on Brean Down have to be hardy, and some grow almost horizontally, bowed by the prevailing westerly winds.
